"Lose your hang-ups. Find your calling." It's a tagline actress Ari Graynor embraced with open arms for the comedy "For a Good Time, Call..." out today. In the film, Ari and co-star Lauren Miller (who co-wrote the script) play a pair of roommates who start a phone-sex business to pay the bills. (I feel like there's a joke here about putting your money where your mouth is, but I digress...)
Anyway, as you can imagine, the part called for plenty of potty-mouthed shenanigans, which Ari said were definitely more hilarious than hot, hot, hot.

"It was really freeing and really fun," the 29-year-old recalled of reciting the blue dialogue. "And the phone-sex piece of it, we weren't making, like, a phone-sex documentary, so we always wanted it to be funny first and sexually titillating never."
Despite the material's irreverent tone, Ari added that there's a lesson or two to be learned from the film:
"I mean, one of the messages that comes out—it's not a message movie, but if you wanted to take something away is sort of this ownership of yourself and owning your sexuality and using it as a way to get to know yourself better."
Something tells me we'll get to know ourselves and Ari a lot better after this "Good Time."
