I don't usually use the contemporary term "cringe" as an adjective. It's from a later generation, so it feels weird, but it is completely appropriate to describe the famous penis scene in Angels and Insects (1995).
Everyone in West Hollywood saw Angels and Insects when it premiered, due to the rumor of the penis. Male frontal nudity was vanishingly rare in mainstream movies in the 1990s, and rumor had it that this guy was actually aroused!
After 30 years, I've forgotten everything about the movie except for the cringe penis and people actually being insects, so I looked up a plot synopsis.
In Victorian England, entomologist William Addison (Mark Rylance, top photo) gets a job cataloging the insect collection of baronet Sir Harold Alabaster (Jeremy Kemp).
The name Alabaster makes me cringe.
When you search for n*de photosof Jeremy Kemp, this pops up. I doubt that it's the same one.
Yes, I'm stalling.
William, of course, falls in love with Sir Harold's daughter Eugenia, an insect-obsessed young lady who dresses like a bug. Actually, all of the women do, for a symbolic reason that I don't quite understand, but the movie won an Oscar for best costumes.
Eugenia and William get married and have some kids, but he is bewildered by her bedroom behavior, coldly rejecting him one moment and being voracious the next, so he starts an affair with a servant girl named Matty.
Left: Mark Rylance has shown his d*k on screen several times, but in this movie he just gets aroused under the sheets.
More after the break, including the cringe p*enis
