This agreeable conflict between healthy sexuality and its not-too-for-bidding opponents occupies the first hour of the film, occasioning some fetchingly naive comments like Benny's description of sex: "It would be like someone was putting his finger up your nose." Jack, too has demons to overcome; a medical student by his father's command, he faints at the sight of blood (yes, really...
