The Girlfriend Experience Page #3

Synopsis: Chelsea (Sasha Grey) is a high-priced $2,000-an-hour call girl in Manhattan, offering a 'girlfriend experience': she'll dress with the client in mind, go to dinner and a movie, listen attentively to talk about work and finances, and she'll provide sex. It's October, 2008: a presidential election nears and the economy is in free fall. She has a boyfriend, Chris (Chris Santos), who's a personal trainer. We are shown five non-consecutive days in Chelsea's life. She's working on her Web page, talking to image consultants, and being interviewed by a reporter. She asks clients when their birthdays are and uses that for an astrological prediction. She's drawn to a new client, a writer from L.A. Should she break her rules for him? What if it risks her relationship with Chris? Should she invest in gold?

of garment right now.

Right.

I'd like to show it real quick

to Marvin, just to get

an idea of what he thinks.

I'm thinking

right now, no.

But I'm thinking maybe

down the road we can try it.

Marv, uh...

you know,

I would definitely--

I'm definitely okay

with it being on consignment

because it gets a chance

to be out on the floor

and see how it does.

You guys have a very big store

and I'm sure we could find a little

bit of space to put the stuff out there.

I know it's going to sell. I

know people are gonna buy it.

This way

I'm okay with that.

If it doesn't sell, then I'll

take it back. That's fine.

But I would like to have it out

there for the Christmas season

Because that's when

people are buying things.

Everyone has to

stop talking and listen.

If we don't close

this deal on Friday

We have to pay

a huge, huge penalty.

There's no way this deal's

gonna close on Friday.

The whole world is afraid

of redemption. No one knows--

gonna be out of business...

On October 25th

I met with Dennis.

We had lunch at Nobu and

then went to a hotel room.

During lunch he talked

about the financial crisis.

When we got back

to the room

he immediately

got on the phone

and ordered

some MaCallan 25.

I put on a Kiki de

Montparnasse corset,

panties and gloves.

The shoes

were basic Zara.

After he got off the phone

we made out for a while.

Then he asked me

to masturbate, which I did.

Then he masturbated

watching me.

He made another appointment

for November 3rd.

I think one element

that could be improved a lot

is the photography.

You should have

much better pictures.

I have pictures I can give you.

That's not a problem.

Are they really

top-quality pictures?

They should look like

"Playboy" pictures.

Yeah, they're

perfect.

Yeah? Okay.

That's important.

And we could improve the logo

and general style of the site,

make it look

much more high-class.

Okay, I also

wanted to--

I don't know exactly

how you'd do this,

but I would

really like it

if my site would come up

in the search engines.

You know, like--

I don't know exactly

how you do that,

But when you Google

"escorts," I come up.

It's a little tricky.

It'll take some time.

But one good idea is

to get yourself listed

in a lot of directories

and review sites.

The more links there

are to your site,

the better your rankings in

the search engines are gonna be.

- You can do that?

- I can help you with that.

Sure, sure.

But that takes monthly work,

if you want to work out a

monthly maintenance contract...

How much?

You have to continually

update it every month.

How much would you charge

just to design it?

About 1500 bucks.

And how soon could you
