I highly recommend this movie. It has a great cast, Andy Garcia, Julianna Margulies, Mick Jagger, Olivia Williams, James Coburn. Garcia plays a novelist in financial trouble who takes a job with an escort agency run by Jagger. Jagger is brilliant in this dramatic role. The movie is about what people want and need … not always the same thing.

Hi Rslover. I had seen this film come up on the Stars channel, and had dismissed it because it was advertised as a film about male escorts, and I wasn't that interested. Then I read your review, and finally caught it as it came back around. This is a very intelligent movie, and I found myself captivated as the situation developed. I agree, I think Jagger was amazing, especially in the scene at the restaurant with Angelica Huston (not going to give anything away). As were all of the cast. There were some wonderful moments and insights--one being the discussion about birds at the unused swimming pool. I think you got it right about what this movie is really about--wants and needs. Thank you for your post, and I also recommend this movie.
