Sex Doll

but without the gloomy ending of the Shakespeare play. The movie was actually quite a pleasant surprise after I discovered the low rating it had received on IMDb. The dialogue is muted and low-key for the most part, but has a certain touch of authenticity to it. The story follows a number of french-speaking twenty-somethings living in London, with the female lead working secretly as an upscale escort. On a night out with her girlfriend, she meets a tattooed guy that says he might give them a lift home. Later on this strange chap begins to suddenly pop up out of nowhere wherever she finds herself.

The movie is written and directed by the up and coming young French director and actress Sylvie Verheyde.

Strong beginning but a little formulated, which makes it cheesy.

Sex Doll begins as this look into the life a a hooker. We see her engaging with her clients on a night by night basis as if she was working a "normal job" or something. The filmmakers do a good job of expressing her subtle contempt for the old, fat and ugly businessmen she sleeps with for money. The film also goes through how she balances this profession without her friends, family, and other relationships discovering the truth.

But I guess that's not enough of a story for a movie, so they added a part about her relationship with a new potential boyfriend, who is more than he seems. It's not a bad add to the story, but for me it does cheapen what it seems they had been trying to do for most of the picture, or what I thought they were doing in humanizing a prostitute's life.

But overall Sex Doll is a good movie that tries not to romanticize or demoralize the decision this young woman made, only humanize the young woman.

A wonderful movie. I didnt expect anything but ended up enjoying one of the most beautiful love stories I´ve seen in months.

This is a deep movie. Dialogs are deep, short, concise and full of hidden and suppressed emotion and scars. Keep that in mind. The title is suggestive, so many of you thought there are going to be many sex scenes. That's why there are so many low grades.

The performances by the lead actress and actor are spot-on. Unfortunately, the storyline doesn't shine alongside them. Perhaps I didn't expect much in terms of acting from this film, but I immediately went to see what else these two were in because of how impressed I was. I never really figured out who "ash" was working for. There were storylines that they could and should have expanded on, but didn't. Overall, due to the phenomenal acting, I gave this an 8/10 rating. I never lost interest in the slightest, and the acting deserves it.
