We both screw people for money. Favorite Movie Quote: "What, you want me to name someone? You want like a name? Oh, God, the pressure of a name... I got it. Cindaf*ckin'rella" Julia Roberts got a Golden Globe along with an Oscar nomination for her portrayal of a prostitute in an updated version of My Fair Lady. As ridiculous as the story is, one has to admit that it was just plain funny. No prostitutes I have ever seen on the news that actually work the streets look like Julia Roberts; not even like her pal Laura San Giacomo - most are just ugly. It is not a pretty business and I think it a flaw of the film to glamorize it. But, it was so funny! Yes, seeing Julia in a position that was uncomfortable was funny, but why couldn't she have just been a flower seller? Maybe the speech-writer for a current presidential candidate wrote this script. I can see Vivian and Kit yelling, "Yes, We Can!" Come on, it was funny! OK, Julia's slapstick was a little over the top, but Hector Elizondo was amazing funny as the Manager and doesn't get enough credit for his understated performance. It was funny and that makes it worth revisiting. email this review to a friend
