Director: Steven Soderbergh
Stars: Sasha Grey, Chris Santos
Studio: Magnolia Pictures
The Plot: A drama set in the days leading up to the 2008 Presidential election, and centered on a high-end Manhattan call girl (Grey) meeting the challenges of her boyfriend (Santos), her clients, and her work.
Uh-oh, Steven Soderbergh is experimenting in the digital realm again. But don't fret, girlfriend, because real-life pornographer and ingénue Sasha Grey should bring enough presence to keep you riveted if S.S.'s penchant for improvised dialogue and consciously half-formed ideas about our current economic situation aren't your bag. Bloggers (sigh) have praised both Grey's performance and Soderbergh's visual take on five days in the life of this particular working woman.
