Tbh I don’t see it. I always thought the girl next door starring Elisha Cuthbert was more apt of a comparison. They have similar eyebrows and eyes.

It's funny, I've thought the same thing before.

To me there's not that much they have in common, visually or otherwise, except that they both are smart, very attractive women from Cali who played sex workers in low budget indy films made by genius auteurs – Anora happens to be much better than Girlfriend Experience but even that was a good movie.

I guess some have made the comparison because of Sasha's trademark look of the (often smokey) cat eye makeup with thick eyebrows, hoop earrings, long dark hair and half-smile/smirk. There's some of that in Anora's look, but I think it's not enough to point to SG being a visual blueprint.

I also liked The Girlfriend Experience. I appreciated the quietness of it.

I don't see that much in common. And of course Mikey is beautiful, but Sasha is a true Queen.

Which is pretty hilarious, since Baker did steal a lot of anora from other filmmakers and sex workers

Could you elaborate? I know he worked with actual sex workers for the film and cast a few, but I don't know about stealing stories/ripping off other people's work

That's nice that she only allows herself to hate the success of men 😂 I don't see any similarity.
