Kinsey is a 2004 film based on the life of Alfred Kinsey, an American biologist and pioneer of research in sexology. Laura Linney was nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her role as Kinsey's wife and fellow researcher, "Mac".

Kinsey follows the life of controversial sexologist and Indiana University professor Alfred Kinsey, the man who made the subject of human sexual intercourse a topic of serious scholarly study in the 1950s. Kinsey is played by Liam Neeson who received a Golden Globe nomination for his role as the sexologist, and Laura Linney plays his wife, Clara Bracken McMillen, affectionately known by Kinsey as "Mac". The movie looks at not only the excitement Kinsey and his wife felt at pioneering a chronically understudied field, but also the ways in which Kinsey's field of research overlapped into his personal life. Peter Sarsgaard plays Clyde Martin, a long-time Kinsey Institute researcher, who becomes intimately involved with both Kinsey and Mac throughout the course of the film.
