another film-from-the-eighties thread: Pretty Woman

[speakingwoman]

followng the Private Benjamin re-appreciation thread - did anyone see Pretty Woman last night?

I first watched it when I was 16.

I have to say, it was 100 times better than I expected and I'd recommended it. Roberts moves her long body like my lanky 15 year old moves his - like she doesn't know what to do with all that length. it's such clever acting - makes you feel so protective towards her.

Pygmalion is now on my kindle library.

We watched "What Women Want" last night.... now there's a whole other thread!

Two of my favourite books are Lolita and Great Expectations.

Make of that what you will!

I was 18 weeks pregnant when I went to the cinema to watch

What women want.

I fell asleep. Boring, boring, film.

My favourite book of all time is The Poisonwood Bible. But I also love Austen and the Brontes. I much prefer to read female writers.
