Soderbergh's low-budget drama about a high-class hooker in New York who offers her clients the titular relationship facsimile. Hard-core porn star Grey plays Chelsea, a 21-year-old professional who keeps a careful record of her clients and the services she provides them. Low-key styling combined with a plot-lite script make for a tedious viewing experience.
