A while back, I wrote a review about Observe and Report, and mentioned that sometimes, there is a certain member of the cast or crew of a film that get's my butt into my seat. Well, one of those people, happens to be Steven Soderbergh, whose newest film, The Girlfriend Experience, was just outside of my top 5 most anticipated films of May. However, it may have been in the top two if I had seen this amazing trailer. Thanks to HULU, and check it out below!
Here is the plot synopsis for this little known film...
Set in the weeks leading up to the 2008 presidential election, the film tells the story of five days in the life of Chelsea (adult film star Sasha Grey in her mainstream film debut), an ultra high-end Manhattan call girl who offers more than sex to her clients, but companionship and conversation – “the girlfriend experience.” Chelsea 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 (Chris Santos) who accepts her lifestyle. But when you’re in the business of meeting people, you never know who you’re going to meet…
I love Soderbergh, for many a reason, the top of which is his diversity. From his big budget flicks like the Ocean's series, to his no budget flicks, like Bubble, of which this film is most closely related. He can go from huge cast of long standing actors, to randomly picking people out of his Facebook top Friends, and going that route. This film fits the latter, and I can't wait. What do you guys think?
Go see something good!
