I do not use the word proposition lightly either. But then why would she be so confused when he threatens to leave her if she goes away on weekend with a customer of her own? Their personal life is not untouched, however, as Grey still looks to her customers as possible love interests, serious enough to leave her constant behind without batting an eye and Santos is propositioned to go on a guy’s trip to Vegas with a client-something he is willing to pass up because his girl disapproves. Chelsea is meeting with a sleazy message board operator to try and expand her exposure, having to satisfy him in order to do so and Chris is going behind the back of the gym he isn’t even willing to wear a uniform for, but which he hopes to find a managerial position with. Insecurity for the future pushes them into doing things they wouldn’t normally do. Much like Grey’s Chelsea is attempting to branch out and start a clothing boutique, not to mention expand her own escort service, Chris is trying to get a fitness line of clothes into stores on consignment if not fulltime while also shopping himself around to other gyms in the city in order to find more money. The economy has caused financial security to be in limbo for everyone, but it has also left the permanence of love in the fringes as well. If she is willing to wreck a year and a half of what they have had together in order to “see” what may come of a new client she has met once, a client married with two little girls, you know that it has all been just a game. He fills that role in her life, him being there is her payment for sex rather than the money of her true clients. She is with a different man each night, so she needs that one constant to come home to. One could have called the film The Boyfriend Experience because it is he-actor Chris Santos-that plays the part. More a situation of convenience, Grey’s penchant for her astrology books soon becomes more important than Chris and what they have together. This then begs the question on whether her relationship with him is also just another job. Mostly being used as a prostitute to men who have left their wives and children at home, her only real need to be the girlfriend is with her man Chris. The title is an interesting choice because Grey’s escort doesn’t really play the girlfriend to any of her clients onscreen. Juxtaposing her job with that of her personal trainer boyfriend-yes, the “legal” hooker has a live-in significant other strange indeed-we catch a glimpse into the world of high-class, high-salary business and how the economy effects both them and their clients much like it does the little man such as us. That film is The Girlfriend Experience starring pornstar Sasha Grey as sophisticated escort Chelsea and her struggles in a Depression-era NYC weeks before the Presidential election.

I have not yet seen Bubble, but 2009 brings us his second feature under the HDMovies deal, bringing his films to theatre, DVD, and TV simultaneously. His artistic endeavors may not always work-see the disappointing Ché Parts 1 & 2-but they do consistently show an auteur trying something new, challenging himself and his viewers. I like the Ocean’s movies as much as the next guy, but something about Steven Soderbergh’s indie films show how much of a paycheck job those blockbusters are. “If they wanted you to be yourself, they wouldn’t be paying you”
