One Pretty Good Movie!

Rating: Null/10 (24 September 2015)

Pretty Woman is the Cinderella like tale of Vivian (Julia Roberts), a street wise and somewhat innocent prostitute, and Edward Louis (Richard Gere), a tough talking, and sincerely loving billionaire! Edward hires Vivian for a week so he doesn't have to deal with his two previously failed relationships (one with a girlfriend, and one with his ex-wife) for the week. While Edward puts in long working days with the client after another, Vivian lives the high life at the Regent Beverly Wilshire, goes shopping on Rodeo Drive (after being turned away by the snubbed shopkeepers), goes to a match of Polo, and goes to the Opera in San Francisco (they take his jet). In the midst of all this, Vivian and Edward fall in love, it's as simple as that. Julia Roberts, in the role that made her a star, gives a simply wonderful, witty, hilarious, and heart touching performance. Richard Gere gives a great performance as well, but he obviously falls back in the light that Julia shines on this film, she is without a doubt a true star! If you love Julia Roberts (and who wouldn't, she's a great actress!) this is the film to see! After all, it made her a star, and is a great example of her early work. Roberts and Gere are such a great team, they were later teamed again in Runaway Bride. Get it, see it, you'll love it!
