Balancing sex and sweetness between a whole lot of laughs, Judd Apatow’s THE 40 YEAR-OLD VIRGIN was honored with an AFI AWARD, recognizing it as one of the year’s most outstanding achievements in the art of the moving image. According to the official rationale, “THE 40 YEAR-OLD VIRGIN will make you laugh — and there is no greater gift in the world today. This entertaining film probes the universal fears of sex, intimacy and chest hair, and follows in the tradition of classic American comedies; it is character-driven, sincere and insightful and will have audiences reexamining their own hang-ups — with a smile. The film also introduces the world to a new leading man of laughter — Steve Carell.”
