Director James Stenson captures a standout portrait of young, ->-bleeped-<- Hollywood hooker Kelly Van Ryan.

Had Andy Warhol been making films today, he likely wouldn't have thought twice about bringing Kelly Van Ryan into the Factory fold.

An attractive ->-bleeped-<- Hollywood hooker barely out of her teens with a crystal meth addiction and self-possessed attitude to burn, the individual born Raphael Gibson -- she shares her professional name with the Denise Richards character in Wild Things — is a true character unto herself.

Wisely letting his subject speak for herself, first-time filmmaker James Stenson has delivered an intimately-shot, engaging documentary portrait.
