Stubiees Movie Review
This Girl’s Life
Netflix summarizes the movie ‘This Girl’s Life’ as a “provocative pastiche”. One definition of ‘pastiche’ is: “an incongruous mixture; a hodgepodge; a postmodern play-writing technique that fuses a variety of styles, genres, and story lines to create a new form”. This movie does contain an abundance of provocative ambiguities presented in a hodgepodge story that you will either love or hate.
Juliette Marquis plays ‘Moon’, an intelligent and compassionate, yet self-defeating and conflicted porn star. However, do not watch for the porn. The only thing hardcore in this film is the reality that persistently interrupts Moon’s every true feeling of success.
Filmed in a first person pseudo documentary style, we live a slice of Moon’s life as she narrates her personal life and professional experiences. Marquis’ character is quite self-assured, albeit a few moments of naïveté, and has a tranquil beauty that reminds us of Angelina Jolie or Milla Jovovich. In this autobiographical story, Moon admittedly enjoys sex and uses most of her porn pay to care for her ailing father ‘Pops’ played by James Woods. Woods must have done substantial research into Parkinson’s disease, as his performance is quite convincing.
The women’s musings on the differences between men and women are exploited in the later half of the movie when Moon starts a sexual infidelity investigation service, the SIA. While trying to leave the porn business, Moon supplements her income by testing the monogamy of other women’s men. She does enjoy a short-lived success before a revengeful salesman, played by Michael Rapaport, in one of the film’s most affective scenes, discovers her true agenda.
Her tentative romantic relationship with Kip Pardue, is often interrupted by the needs of her dependant father. Even Tomas Arana, as the principled film producer ‘Mr.A’, is tenaciously pressuring Moon to renew her contract with Primal Films. Cheyenne Silver, a real life porn pro, brings a very tense reality to Moon when she discovers that they both may have contracted AIDS.
This is a very realistic, believable, and emotionally charged film with excellent performances by Juliette Marquis and James Woods. After all, how ugly are you when a dog has to close his eyes to hump your leg?
Three [ stars ] for the film’s real feel via Marquis’ effective into the camera digressions and her character’s inspiring survival skills.
