Review of The Girlfriend Experience (2009) by Peter W — 05 Nov 2012
Soderbergh is so realistic in his movies (many times close to documentary, as it does in this film) that they are sometimes cold. He dissects the oldest profession of the world so deep that it loses any possible interest.
Probably it is close to the real world (a job as any other, in which you talk more about money than about any other thing), but it lacks of glamour, charm or anything bright. Even, it looks to me that famous Sasha Grey has a much attractive personality than her character, who looks quite dull -even very stupid.
Only in the last part, some of the humanity of the main character comes out, but it is a little too late for that.
