The day isn't over yet! Although I missed seeing Steven Soderbergh's The Girlfriend Experience during Sundance, it'll be out in May, so it's not too long of a wait. Thanks to NY Mag, the official poster for Soderbergh's latest low-budget indie looking at the world of prostitution from an elite call girl's point of view. And it's quite an interesting poster. Not that we haven't seen a lot of other interesting posters recently, but this one breaks all the rules and goes for a look that we haven't ever seen before. In fact, I like it a lot. My only complaint is that you can't really get a good look at Sasha Grey - but maybe that's the point.

The Girlfriend Experience stars real life pornstar Sasha Grey as a $10,000 per night call girl. It first premiered as a surprise during the Sundance Film Festival this year and is being distributed by Magnolia Pictures in May. This is Steven Soderbergh's unofficial "follow-up" to his low budget film Bubble from a few years ago. Neil Miller of Film School Rejects said in his review: "Soderbergh has captured some truly stunning visuals and has delivered a non-linear narrative that is both engaging and not overly complicated." Will definitely be checking this out and for more reasons than just to see Sasha Grey on the big screen.
