Only in the movies...

Rating: 3/10 (6 October 2009)

Only in Hollywood can they take something like prostitution and turn it into some fairy tail cheesy story staring over rated actress Julia Roberts. So what do we have here? A whore played by Julia (who resembles nothing like a true prostitute) is payed for a night with a rich guy played by Richard Gere who could probably pay any woman to spend a night or weekend with him but no he picks up a street walker instead. It could have been a charming story or a little more serious and intelligent but as with most Hollywood movies in the last 10 to 15 years it is out of touch with reality. I don't know but prostitution is to me a last sign of desperation by women who have nothing more to lose or need it to support a drug addiction. The women in this movie who are suppose to be prostitutes seem all too happy and cheerful to be in their position. Of course they fall in love and go walking off into the sunset....Lets get real. Hey ladies of the night keep working the streets because you never know when some rich guy might come along.
