Are you experienced?

Until I actually get to see it, I have absolutely no idea what to make of Steven Soderbergh’s “The Girlfriend Experience” — which, if you haven’t heard yet, is a breakthrough vehicle for multi-award-winning ingenue Sasha Grey. Soderbergh’s lo-fi experiments work for me approximately half the time, so I’ll just have to see which side of the fence this one lands on.

But however the film turns out for me, there’s no denying that this is an absolutely first-rate poster, from the graphic concept to the typography to that killer tagline. Great work all round.

    Reminds me of the old LOLITA poster. Sunglasses, close up, oral fixation. So to speak.

    I just wish they’d got a hotter porn star to play the part. There, I said it.

    Am I the only one who thinks this is prank?! If this news is true, then I’m the worst april fool ever.

    It isn’t a prank, this has been reported since October. And there is no hotter porn star than Sasha Grey.

    Very French New Wave-ish poster.

    I love the close-up of Grey’s face, but what is it we see inside the dotted pattern? I can’t decypher it. And what about the barcode? Is it plot-related? Is it an erotic film or full-on pr0n?

    Kris,

    You can’t exactly tell us that you would prefer a hotter porn star to play the part without telling us first. I personally would have picked Brea Bennet.

    Teegan Presley is way hotter than Sasha Grey. Grey is a pure pig. But I still want to see the film.
