From: The Bends
The Song:
The Movie Version:
Andrew Byrne is a chronic masturbator, finding it impossible to form meaningful relationships with other people, or even hold down a job.
His one successful relationship ended when his first love, Sarah, caught him masturbating at a family dinner.
He seeks counseling, and makes progress with a psychiatrist who helps him control his urges, to the extent he's even able to find work as an office assistant.
But when his psychiatrist retires, replaced by the most beautiful woman Andrew has ever seen, Byrne falls into a spiral of sex addiction - his repressed urges forcing him to seek out more and more dangerous highs.
Key Quote:
Sarah: "You do it to yourself, you do. And that's what really hurts."

Sorry to be the resident Radiohead pedant... actually, I'm not that sorry, but anyway, the opening dedication to pyramid Song should read "There was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt". 'Cos it's, y'know, the lyrics. I know Thom mumbles, but... The King of Limbs is ace though.
