I just wanna see if anyone see the movie GFE: Girlfriend Experience. Not the one with Sasha Grey... I believe it's a "Indie" film.
I've seen both the Steven Soderbergh directed one that starred Sasha Grey as well as the locally (Vancouver) produced, similarly titled film. And I actually think the locally made one is a better movie. The Soderbergh one was rather unfocussed and kind of aimless, in my opinion. I think if he had cut it in a more linear way, there might have at least been the feeling of a story there. But as it was, it seemed like the focus of the story was unclear. Was it supposed to be a dissertation on the current state of the economy as it affected an SP and her boyfriend? Or was it supposed to be about an SP almost finding a more intimate connection with a client than she feels she has with her SO?
The Vancouver made film is also not classically structured. The conceit is that it's one of those faux documentaries told primarily from the POV of a client and the people in his life. But in this case, it kind of works. It still has a lot of flaws but I was more willing to be forgiving of those flaws because it was compelling enough. And I think it owes a LOT to this forum. Some of the comments and lines in the movie seem like they could have been lifted right from the pages of this board. The only really unfortunate thing about the movie is that the ending feels a little too much like an easy "cop out" but I'd still recommend it to anyone that is involved in this industry, whether on the client or the provider side of the equation.
