The idea of sex
is a film about the time in your life when you finally begin to understand who you are - and realise that you want to be someone else.Darin (Paul Provenza) wants to be Matt (Stephen Dunham). Matt wants to be Darin. Kevin (John Gloria) wants to be Matt - no-one wants to be who they are. Darin is married to Natalie (Shannon Day). Matt's not married. Darin sleeps with Maxine (Krista Taylor). Matt sleeps with a whole bunch of people. Kevin just wants, more than anything in the world, to sleep with someone.
Matt: "Oh man, you know how your sex life is like an amusement park and you wanna go on as many rides as you possible can before you have to go home... really get your money's worth? Let's just say that last night I went on all the rides."
Kevin: (blurts) "All the rides?"
Matt: "All the rides, it was like a season pass, but forget the sex, I'm talking about the whole package."
Kevin: 'No, no, no, wait! Back to the sex, back to the sex..."
