Did you ever wonder why so many women will say that their favorite movie is Pretty Woman? I must admit I do adore that movie, but lets review the story line.....Here we have a young girl lets say from Ohio, who travels to Hollywood and becomes a prostitute. I don't recall any career ambitions , like to get enough money to go to law school or some other far fetched idea....nope its just her and Kitt out there working the drive trying to make enough money to "get outta here". Sooo along comes handsome Edward and he needs directions to Beverly Hills. He sees Vivian (not even a good prostitute name) takes her to his penthouse where he offers her a business proposition , takes her shopping on Rodeo Drive and then falls in love with her, and they live happily ever after. Bravo....you just watched a movie that depicts prostitution as a glamorous fairytale. Do you really want your little girl to aspire to become a woman of the night in hopes of being rescued by a wealthy man? Well as I said in the beginning , I love the movie....I actually have the soundtrack in my CD rotation, lol. Pretty Woman is a classic and no amount of criticizing will change that !! I'm justsayin
