i have just give a 10 for thief highway and i mention this for two reason one to prove i be not a git who only give bad review but 2 because the theme of the film have the same thread namely the fall in love with a woman of the night . we all know pretty woman be a chick flick but you can not avoid them all and they will eventually get you . pretty woman for me do two thing and two terrible horrible ghastly thing and firstly it portray prostitution a a career more akin to that of a dancer and you know with absolutely great friend and leg warmer lot of giggle and borrow each others make up . you see in the reality of pretty woman the prostitute and this be a street walker prostitute be talk about here and have a great life and she healthy happy with only the occasional whimper to explain her predicament . my feeling be this happy hooker type protagonist be a lot more palatable than an even nearly realistic character and which for me beg the question if you make a movie about a type of person but be too chicken scar to adorn that player with the characteristic familiar to that role then why do it . if i make a film about a chef but do not want him to cook or talk about food or wear a white hat then why make a film about a chef in the first place . by bail out and turn the hooker into a respectable dancer type the story miss the point completely and consequently never indulges in any of the moral or social question that it could have and what a cop out and really really lame . secondly and pretty woman insult romance itself and edward lewis play by richard gere have no clue how to seduce or romance this lady that be without his plastic friend and yep do not leave home without it and especially if you be a moron in a suit who have no imagination . positive of his romantic moment involve splash cash in one way or another and even when he first meet her it the lotus esprit turbo that do all the work and necklace here diamonds there limos over there and money money money and where the charm . where the charisma and do not mention that attempt at the piano please . girl who like this film will also be girl who like shop more than most . guy who like this film will not even have realize that old eddy have less charm than a calculator and a they probably do not either so it wont have register . more importantly anyone who like this film will hate thief highway a wonderful story of which part be base on the same subject . i will finish on a song representpretty woman hangin round the street pretty woman and the kind i like to treat pretty woman and i do not believe you youre not the truth no one could spend as much a you mercypretty woman and wont you pardon me pretty woman and i couldn not help but see pretty woman and and you look lovely a can be do you lack imagination just like mepretty woman and shop a while pretty woman and talk a while pretty woman and sell your smile to me pretty woman and yeah and yeah and yeah pretty woman and look my way pretty woman and say you will stay with me . and i will pay you . i will treat you right .
