the movie isn't set in this day and age... it's a contemporarised version of a much older book.

I'm still confused about the 3rd rule "No Orgasm". If the mother was trying to follow the rules to get on the show. What's not having an orgasm have anything to do with part of her diet??
And BTW, where did you see the words "No Orgasm" during the commercial??? What was the size of the lettering?? [/B]
on the DVD, one of the special features is the full version of 'Month of Fury'.
The basis is that Tibby is a self-help guru. And the month of fury is a health kick. Basically for a month you eat no red meat or sugar and have no orgasms.
The 'Month of Fury' show is, IMHO, a satirical look at people looking for the easy way out. This seems to be the central theme rather than that of addiction. Look at the evidence:
1. Sara takes the easy way out to weight loss.
2. Harry takes the easy way out to raising cash (many different ways).
3. Harry, Tyrone and Marion all take the easy way out trying to kick smack... they stay off one day and take this as proof that they can stop whenever they want and promptly bang up to celebrate.
4. Harry would rather shoot into an infected vein than risk missing a shot.
5. etc... There are many others that follow this theme. I just can't remember them right now.
