are there any movies like this that features a stripper as the main character? I watched Casino Job but that was more of a comedy with strippers and could not be taken very serious. It had several good strip club scenes but no serious plot to it.
samsung, there is a movie by Wayne Wang (I think) called "The Center of the World." It is about a stripper who goes with a customer for a weekend (or longer) getaway. Very insightful drama. Also features a shot that precluded the R rating: a stripper inserts a lollipop in her vagina, and the camera does not demure...
thanks for the suggestion I am going to rent it on netflix this week.
"Dot-com computer nerd Richard (Peter Sarsgaard) has $20 million and no life. So, what does he do? He rents -- for $10,000 -- the services of a stripper (Molly Parker) for a fantasy sex weekend in Las Vegas. But before they get down to business, certain ground rules are laid out. That's OK with Richard … only he never imagined he'd fall for the woman. Wayne Wang directs.:

But apparently Sasha Grey comes across as dull in this movie; could that be what Soderbergh wanted?
Anyway, interesting trailer.
