NOT THE MOST CAREFUL OF GIRLS
NOT THE MOST CAREFUL OF GIRLS begins with Dylan Moody arranging to
meet Anna Monet to interview her about a role in an erotic video he is
directing. They meet at a coffee shop in downtown Seattle, where
after discussing the project, Moody agrees to hire her. Moody stands
up to leave but Anna asks him for a ride to her apartment in West
Seattle.
Walking to Moody’s car, Anna invites him to see her perform in a
program involving her church choir. When Moody asks what the program
is about, Anna replies, “Jesus.”
Moody asks, “You don’t feel any conflict doing soft porn while singing
about Jesus?” Anna shrugs and says, “My church is cool.”
Along the way to her apartment, Anna tells Moody that she is a former
gymnast and had attended college in Arizona before beginning to dance
at a strip club. “After that I didn’t have time for school any more.”
Anna also mentions that while dancing she met an airline pilot, and
after becoming pregnant and giving birth to his child, she moved back
to Seattle. But when Moody presses her for information about her
child, she grows vague, only saying that “She’s living with my brother
right now.”
When Moody drops her off at her house, they agree to meet for dinner
later in the week. But within a couple hours Anna takes a bus back
downtown to attend choir practice at the Unity church. On the way to
the bus stop after practice Anna is approached by a pimp, and
desperate for money, agrees to work for him. She works four days for
the pimp but is beaten and raped by him one night when she doesn’t
bring in enough money. She calls the police and escapes him.
Anna calls Moody upon her release from the the hospital and they meet
for dinner one week later than originally agreed. They begin a casual
sexual relationship. But as Moody begins to discover the extent of
her emotional problems, (her child had been taken away by the state)
he becomes more deeply involved, eventually abandoning the video
project. And slowly they begin a love affair, which leads to Anna
becoming pregnant.
Though at times dark in tone, “Not the Most Careful of Girls” is also
full of tenderness and sexuality, pushing the sexual envelope for an
American film.
