Diary of a Sex Addict (2001)

In the sun-drenched heart of California, Sammy Horn reigns as the mastermind behind the culinary triumph, Sammy's. Esteemed as both a talented chef and prosperous owner, Sammy is also a devoted family man, sharing his life with his loving wife, Grace, and their cherubic five-year-old son. Yet, beneath Sammy's seemingly perfect facade, he is ensnared by a compulsive hunger for sex, a relentless addiction that forces him to live a life akin to Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Sammy's story unfolds as he walks the razor's edge between two starkly contrasting existences. On one hand, he is the epitome of a loving husband and father, a man who cherishes his family above all. At the same time, Sammy is a man consumed by insatiable sexual desires, seeking ephemeral pleasures in the arms of numerous women, a stark contrast to his impeccable image as a family man. Struggling to reconcile his internal war, Sammy seeks guidance from the insightful psychiatrist, Dr. Jane Bordeaux. As he delves into the labyrinth of therapy, his relentless addiction continues to eclipse his efforts at change. The film weaves a tale of a man torn between his love for his family and his uncontrollable desires, painting a vivid portrait of a sex addict's tumultuous journey towards redemption.
