Pretty Woman

Because of his extreme wealth and suave good looks, Edward Lewis could seemingly have any woman he wants, that committed significant other which he ne...eds on his arm at social events to further how he makes his money as a corporate raider. However, he focuses more on his corporate raiding pursuits with his partner in crime, Philip Stuckey, his lawyer of ten years, than those women, with every significant other he's had in his life feeling neglected and eventually leaving him, this fact about which he is just coming to the realization. In Beverly Hills, Edward, in needing that woman on his arms as he and Philip work toward taking over the company owned by the increasingly insolvent James Morse, decides, based on a chance encounter, to hire Hollywood Boulevard hooker Vivian Ward as his escort for the week 24/7. He does so because he wants to have a professional who would be committed to the work, yet not have any commitments to her after the week is over. Beyond their chance encounter, he also makes this decision because she surprises him about how unhookerish she is in certain respects. Vivian, relatively new to Los Angeles and the business, still has to look and act the part, with Edward, beyond giving her money, leaving her largely to her own devices to do so. So she gets a somewhat unlikely Henry Higgins in Barney Thompson, the manager of the Beverly Wilshire Hotel where Edward is staying. Barney has to draw that fine line of keeping the hotel's upscale clients happy, while maintaining the posh decorum of the upper class, which does not include people coming into the hotel looking for rooms with hourly rates. As Barney and his associates are able to transform Vivian into a Cinderella, the questions become whether Vivian can go back to her Hollywood Boulevard life and whether she does have her Prince Charming beyond this week in the form of Edward or anyone else who truly does see her as Cinderella as opposed to a Hollywood Boulevard streetwalker. Show More

Details

Edward Lewis, a wealthy corporate raider, realizes that despite his wealth and good looks, he is unable to maintain a committed relationship due to his focus on his career. In need of a female companion for important social events, Edward hires Vivian Ward, a Hollywood Boulevard prostitute. He offers her a large sum of money to be his escort for a week, with no strings attached. Edward is intrigued by Vivian's down-to-earth personality and hires Barney Thompson, the manager of the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, to transform her into a refined and elegant woman.

As Vivian learns to navigate the upper-class society of Beverly Hills, she becomes torn between her newfound glamorous lifestyle and her desire to return to her old life. Throughout the week, Vivian and Edward develop a genuine connection that goes beyond their initial arrangement.

The film explores themes of love, class differences, and personal transformation. As Vivian blossoms into a sophisticated woman, she must confront the question of whether she can ever truly fit into Edward's world and find happiness. Ultimately, Pretty Woman explores the possibility of true love and whether it can defy societal expectations and prejudices.

With its iconic performances by Julia Roberts and Richard Gere, Pretty Woman is a heartwarming and romantic comedy that has become a classic in contemporary cinema. Directed by Garry Marshall, the film combines elements of comedy, drama, and romance to create an entertaining and uplifting story about the power of love and self-discovery.
