Sneak Peak at "The
Girlfriend Experience"
with
Sean Lynch
Here's one that might interest Steven
Soderbergh fans.
The
Girlfriend Experience is five days in the life of an ultra
high-end Manhattan call girl who thinks she has her life totally under
control. She feels her future is secure because she runs her own
business her own way, makes $2000 an hour, and has a devoted boyfriend
who accepts her lifestyle.
But when youre in the business of meeting people, you never know who
youre going to meet.
Shot in a an artistic cinema verité style, the ups and downs of GFE's
story line are less compelling than the very credible performance of
award-winning adult film actress, Sasha Grey, as a determined young
woman that has managed to achieve success as an upscale escort without
any apparent loss of dignity, but clearly at the expense of her ability
to feel anything deeply, be it with her clients or in her personal
life.
In an uncomplicated way, the film makes a provocative point about the
more subtle costs of switching off aspects of our aliveness (i.e. our
caring) to get ahead.
Not exactly sure if this will be everyone's cup of tea - but it could
would.
The
Girlfriend Experience
rolls into Australian cinemas on September 3
2009.
