Girl Friend Experience the movie!

[dreamer8 510]

The movie came out last month in a limited number of theaters scored a 59 on R.T. so I thought I would give it a try.

 

I was surprised at the accuracy and relevancy to the actual industry (from my perspective).

 

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

skip the intro or you will be out of time (72 min) and have to wait 54 mins to finish the last 5 min.

 

if you pass the credits at the end last min the is a 1 min Easter egg

It's a pretty low-key movie with not much of a plot. Steven Soderbergh directed, so it's well shot and blocked. As Dreamer notes, well-researched from an escort business point of view. Sasha Grey is hot-looking (of course) but rather distant and detached throughout in the lead role for someone who is supposedly involved in a LTR with an emotionally committed BF. They only time she shows much emotion is when she receives a bad on-line review she didn't deserve. Definitely worth a watch, but not a movie of the year.

I agree, worth a watch but not as rental or in the theater :)

 

I was more interested in how well researched it was, then how well it was acted.

Sasha Grey did act very disinterested, but then that's how she acts in her regular porn movies too, so nothing new there. That might've been the effect Soderbergh was hoping to achieve.

 

I wouldn't say it's a highly accurate depiction of the business. More like a stylized accuracy. Kind of like a French movie.

 

I'm not a fan of SG's, so I'm not sure why she's got such a following. However, it is quite a coup for her that she's made the transition from porn to mainstream, something that most porn actresses dream of but of course they never achieve it. So she should be congratulated on that. However, I don't see her having very many other roles in mainstream though, other than this one, which was designed around her.

I'm watching it now :) (The Girlfriend experience) So far I like it...

 

I missed out on an opportunity, I was supposed to be a stripper extra in Smash Cut, but my schedule got screwed up :( and I missed out... Wanted to meet Sasha Grey cause she is pretty cool.

 

Will post opinion on movie (The GFE) soon. :D

There are two films with this name, has anyone seen the other one? It was on the passionate eye on tv a few weeks back. It is a mockumentary.
