Sasha Grey is the adult star who plays the lead in Steven Soderbergh's THE GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE. She was on the Rotten Tomatoes Show recently, talking about her favorite films. And if you can guess even one of them then congratulations to you because I could not. Also, you might very well fall in love with this chick. Not me of course, but you, maybe.

Is it me or does this chick sound like shes an inch from being a burnt out pornstar and or crackhead?

I dont know whats so great about her other than being hot, she also sounds like shes either mumbling or reading something off a piece of paper.

Come on
It's awesome if she really likes the films she lists.
But it all just looks so fake, and its nothing to do with her being in Porn, the very films she lists, or being female; from the very start she's clearly glancing down at something, the way she speaks at times, it's as if someone is prompting her.

I've read a few interviews with her and she sounds quite interesting, her love for Criterion DVD, etc, but she never really has anything in depth to say about the films she likes, or good reasons why.
Naming Escape as her favourite film because she had a crush on Snake Plisken is a bit naff, lets be honest; it's not exactly the kind of thing a true movie buff would say, but rather the kind of thing you would imagine Paris Hilton saying.

Can't help but laugh at you
Seriously just because a sexually liberated and confident young woman happens to mention a few subtitled films, guys immedialtely go "Hey she's fake!". I remember reading another interview with Sasha years ago (also she was recently interviewed by AV Club)and she mentioned the Criterion collection frequently during the interview.

I remember reading another interview with Sasha years ago (also she was recently interviewed by AV Club)and she mentioned the Criterion collection frequently during the interview. So yes it is possible for someone who enjoys having sex in front of a camera to also enjoy high brow films. Get over yourself guys.

Sasha Grey does very hardcore porn cause she thinks its ''performance art'', which means she is into arts, and that list would definately make sense.

Stop complaining and pretending her list is BS cause the only film from her list that you have seen and know is Escape from New York.

It's not BS.
Go back and do a little research on the girl - she's waaay into foreign films and avante garde... It's part of the reason Soderbergh cast her, apparently. They could talk art flicks together.

Anyway. Saw the film on Amazon On Demand. Not great, but not bad. It didn't require a whole lot from her personally, but then again, it can be very difficult for a person to "not act" in som...

Anyway. Saw the film on Amazon On Demand. Not great, but not bad. It didn't require a whole lot from her personally, but then again, it can be very difficult for a person to "not act" in some manner when a camera is on them, so kudos to her for coming off as real.

Hmmmm
Yeah, does look like crap; around 3:15, she looks down, as if reading something. How the hell could she not remember her no1 film?!!! Plus, she does not really have much to say except having a crush on Kurt Russell. What about the film Sasha? John Carpenter's directing?
Shame, she's hot, but that was so duh!

I honestly think that list was total BS except for #1. She proly just came up with other films she saw that she felt were very artistic pieces that would make her sound like a huge film buff.

did you see that?
Before she said what her number one movie was, she paused and looked down like she was reading something. I suspect this whole thing is bullshit.

Interesting Top 5
Her top 5 was filled with a lot of interesting and diverse films.

I watched The Girlfriend Experience like 3 or 4 days ago. I really liked it, though it is a bit confusing. The narrative takes place over the span of 5 days, but it jumps all over the place so that it seems like everything is happening at the same time.

I watched The Girlfriend Experience like 3 or 4 days ago. I really liked it, though it is a bit confusing. The narrative takes place over the span of 5 days, but it jumps all over the place so that it seems like everything is happening at the same time. It offers a great juxtaposition between these two different people who are romantically linked and their extremely different financial situations and how that affects the lives they live.

It was a brilliant film about the effect of economics on a person's life. Definitely recommend it if you don't mind a disjointed narrative.

Oh, and the ending is unbelievably creepy.

If real, then she just gained a bunch of movie geek stalkers. The first four seemed planned. Not that she didn't like the movies, but it's like if you asked me to write a thought out article versus asked me on the street and got my gut reaction, you'll get two different lists. Escape From new York seemed like the one she truly thought and asked herself, "what's my fave film?" She seemed muc...

Escape From new York seemed like the one she truly thought and asked herself, "what's my fave film?" She seemed much more genuine discussing it. Either way, she's tops and The Girlfriend Experience looks great.

Interesting and smart girl. Wonder why she went into the cocksucking business?
[link]

My guess? the $$$$$

It would be neat to see a porn star make the switch from adult to mainstream movies. Good luck on that.

Maybe, except for #1, they all have in common something that is completely at odds with what she does for a living. Really, that's a pretty impressive and interesting Top Five for anybody just about, let alone a porn star.
