    The scene with the necklace when Edward shuts the box on Vivian's hand and startled her was not in the script. Richard Gear did it spontaneously and the director liked Julia Roberts' genuine laugh so much that he left it in the film.

They wouldn't help her when she was dressed, well, like a hooker, but when she came back after a shopping trip dressed to the nines they didn't recognize her and she got to dismiss them right back! "You don't remember me? You work on commission, right? Mistake. BIG Mistake! I have to go shopping now!" BTW, that brown polka dot dress she wore? I had it in navy blue. And the pink sheath dress with black buttons down the front? I had that in red. I had no idea I was a fashion icon and I didn't live anywhere near Beverly Hills. LOL

    This movie is what made Julia Roberts a star. She was irresistible & always remained grateful to director Gary Marshall (his movies are always good) and appeared in every film of us he asked her to until his death. She was in his final film. She & Richard Gere had such good chemistry & loved working with Gary so much they looked for another project for years. The result was the delightful The Runaway Bride - funny, romantic & Roberts & Gere still had the chemistry. Gary Marshall had a loyal group of actors who were in every film he made. The most important was his lucky charm, Hector Elizondo (hotel manager in Pretty Women) who is at his best in The Princess Diaries 1 & 2. Also the sucking up store manager was in every film after Pretty Woman and also had his best part in both Princess Diaries films. You can never go wrong with Gary Marshall.

    The song wasn't written for the movie. It's called "Oh, Pretty Woman," written by Roy Orbison (1936-1988) and recorded by him. It was released as a single in 1964 and was a big hit.
    The opera they went to was La Traviata (The Fallen Woman), written by Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901) in 1852 and first performed in 1853. It's about a prostitute who falls in love with a rich guy.

    I swear this film kept us happy and entertained, because we all kept watching it in turns between apts, and by the end we had all watched it at least twice. It was a great conversation to keep us occupied between HGTV and the random showings of Happy Madison productions.

    The story line of a rich man transforming a poor woman into someone fantastic goes back over 100 years to the play Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw. The basic premise has been rewritten into several other films and musicals such as My Fair Lady, Educating Rita and, of course, Pretty Woman. Each story is charming and worth watching. My Fair Lady is a classic you would both enjoy and greatly appreciate.

Almost anytime it’s on I will start watching. I’ve probably seen it from start to end maybe 30 times over the years! Both Gere and Roberts light up the screen. I’m straight, but Gere looks pretty sharp. He epitomizes what a lot of men probably aspire to be like….rich, handsome, and powerful who could likely get any woman he wants. And Julia looks beautiful.

    I think you recognized the older business owner James, that is Ralph Bellamy who was in “Trading Places” as one half of the Duke brothers with Don Ameche (and also in their cameo in “Coming to America”). They were both classic movie actors as far back as the 30s. Ralph Bellamy is in a great screwball comedy (a term used back then for a rom-com) from 1937 called “The Awful Truth” starring Cary Grant and Irene Dunne, that would be a fantastic watch for the channel! Great witty banter, fast-paced, and so fun!
    The old movie that is shown on tv is “Charade” (1963) starring Cary Grant (speaking of) and Audrey Hepburn, combo suspense romance, that would also be a fun movie for the channel!
    And of course the black & white tv show she’s watching early on is I Love Lucy! The famous grape-stomping scene ❤

The way she was treated and judged was horrible. 3) Julia changed people because she was genuine. That is why she was lovable. She was friendly and charismatic. 4) What this movie showed is the while she made him better but making him see and enjoy life and realizing tearing down stuff is bad and hurts people. He helped her to. She was more than just street worker. She was a woman, feminine and beautiful, smart, and caring. She was a human being just like everyone else.

I just started crying too and it was only after watching the movie the third or fourth time did I realize Demi's character was also crying during that scene.

    My mum taught me about fine dining when I was twelve. Basically when it comes to cutlery (silverware) you start on the outside and work your way in. Also if you're unsure watch what other people are using. As a reward for long service, working for Queensland Rail dad was given free first-class passes to travel anywhere in Australia for himself, mum and I. We travelled from Brissie (Brisbane), Queensland to Perth, Western Australia and back. From one side of the country to the other. That's when mum taught me about fine dining, because first-class meals were included. Also never do what she did with that Ketchup, that's considered an insult to the chef and staff.

    For your next Romantic Comedy please consider The Goodbye Girl , starring Richard Dreyfus, who played Matt Hooper in Jaws. Richard won an Oscar for his role in the film. I believe Julia's first film was Mystic PIzza, which is a small budget coming of age film and it got Julia noticed and on the map, then Pretty Woman rocketed her to super stardom. Her smile lights up the screen. One of Richard Geres early films is called American Gigolo , where he plays a male prostitute. Its a good movie but R rated , the song Call Me by Blondie is on the soundtrack and I believe it is the theme song.

The businessman left the young woman on the pavement where they had met a few days earlier, throwing the promised cash out the window in exchange for her company. Glad it was changed.

    Jay and Amber, when this movie came out, I could have sworn they made this movie like a modern day "My Fair Lady" (1964 musical/romance) film. although with a slightly altered storyline and a period piece. Perhaps "Maid in Manhattan" was inspired by the same concept of "My Fair Lady" minus the music. I love "My Fair Lady" and "Pretty Woman" too!

    The original version of this story was a dark drama. Titled "$3,000", it ended with Edward throwing Vivian out of his car onto Hollywood Blvd. It got shopped around until Garry Marshall got hold of it, and he saw it as a Cinderella story. So he went through and did a total rewrite, and the rest is history. It made Julia Roberts a star, and personally, I wish she'd stuck with that great curly mane.

His job is to ensure the quality of the hotel is remained and customers don't go looking for someplace else because there are prostitutes in the lobby. He helped her but he couldn't have her dressed like that and walking around. Proper attire, and if she doesn't know, then he does and he told her.

Garry Marshall would always cast him in, at least, a small role in every single movie he ever directed from his very first in 1982 until his very last in 2016. ❤
