Here is my rather odd observation?

Rating: 8/10 (1 February 2016)

Richard Gere's character is rich, powerful, successful. So he is used to ordering people around, his lawyer, everybody. He buys companies, strips them for the assets, sells ruthlessly.
There is a background story which is only hinted at as he meets a chick, and... How does someone like that form a meaningful relationship? I guess it happens all the time with rich and successful people, the partner (male or female) has to accept, and cope with all that the other one is. The main person has somehow, to maybe come down a peg or three and adjust to the wants and needs and attitudes and ambitions of the other person.
We do see a bit of this conundrum in Pretty Woman, but it is a thought that should, or could, be developed a lot more.
The special parts of PW is the obvious enjoyment that Gere and Roberts show each other. They must have really enjoyed the whole process. I did too. And I loved the few scenes with Laura San Giacomo... " Fifty bucks, Grandpa. For seventy-five, the wife can watch."
