Shout out for Hector Elizondo - the actor who played the Head Concierge at the hotel where a lot of the movie scenes took place. There was something very wholesome in that character - and in Elizondo's portrayal of the character, that not only added a dose of reality to the storyline, but gave better context to Gere's character. The concierge saw long before Gere's character, that Vivien had real substance - that she had both depth and real potential. And IMO it was the interactions between Gere and Elizondo's characters, that gave the audience a clue that Gere's character had substance too, and was not just some wallet on legs. Elizondo portrayed the archetypal 'hard working man who has seen how the world really works' brilliantly. We have all known men in our lives who are of that mettle, and they are each one irreplaceable. The fact that his character got along with Gere, and had time for him as a human being, spoke volumes. Great casting throughout, IMO. Also Vivien's room-mate - she too is a fine actress.

[@maribiddle5859]

I agree 100 percent. He became like a father figure or fairy God father to Vivien. Helping her to get that gorgeous cocktail dress and teaching her the silver ware. But the best moment of his is when he sees her in the red dress. He looks like a father looking at his daughter. Kit was also so super. Her comments were so perfect. She really did a great job.

His kindness towards his employees and guests was heartwarming. He treated everyone with respect and brought out the best in them. I fell in love with Hector Elizondo in this movie! His character was similar to Mr. Andrews the ship builder of the Titanic (Victor Garber) who was so kind and protective of Rose. Both were fatherly mentors.

While Molly Ringwald says it's one of her biggest mistakes, it was no mistake. Let's be honest. Julia Roberts is the reason why the movie was successful. As much as I love Molly in Sixteen Candles and Pretty in Pink, she would not have been able to bring what Julia brought for the character of Vivian. Julia exuded the perfect "street toughness", mixed with the "naive silliness" and the 'broken sadness" of the character in perfect balance. Honestly, IMO, she deserved an Oscar for this portrayal, but it isn't the typical type of role that would win the major awards.

It's a little inaccurate to say Roberts was an unknown in Hollywood when "Pretty Woman" was made.

Most people definitely knew her name at least.

[@debra2700]

I agree. After Steel Magnolias she was a star. She did the talk show circuit and people were dying to know what her next movie was going to be. She said it was 3000 with Richard Gere because that was the title at that time based on the money they settled on for her to spend the week as his "beck and call girl."

[@michaeloberg3018]

@@debra2700 In the past (and even still today to a lesser degree) when an actor/actress was nominated for an Oscar they were suddenly a big deal...especially if it was a newcomer who was nominated. I think just about everyone knew there was something quite unique and special about Julia Roberts when they saw her in "Steel Magnolias". There's good reason she was the only one from the whole cast that received an Oscar nomination. That's a huge achievement when you are the newcomer in the group among the likes of seasoned pros like Sally Field, Shirley MacLaine, Daryl Hannah, Olympia Dukakis, and Dolly Parton! To be chosen as the best from a team of people like that must be pretty flattering!

Most of the more severe illnesses happen to people by an upsetting event happening in their lives that takes them by surprise, unexpectedly, impacting first in the brain, then in the corresponding organ which that part of the brain controls. The end of WWI had absolutely everything to do with the Flu and lung TB outbreak that occurred killing millions. In nature, the biological conflict linked with a territorial fear (just what it means-a fear in your territory, your home, your community, etc.) is a widening of the bronchia (tissue loss). Your body attempts to widen your bronchia in order to allow more air into your lungs to give you more strength and energy to fight to keep your territory safe. Stay with me.......The biological conflict linked with a death fright impacts the lungs. The lungs attempt to grow larger in order to allow more air in because breath equals life, as we all know. No breath equals death. Why are so many people across the world suddenly having their appendix removed? The appendix is associated with “being in fear for one’s life”. The HEALING phase is the rupture/inflammation. While you are in the fear or death fright conflict, you notice no symptoms of “disease”, except you have cold hands, cold feet, you can’t sleep, you awaken at 3 AM every night, you have little appetite. During the war, millions of people were in fear of the bombing of their homes and cities where the war was most active. Fearing for their lives, their loved ones in the war, their ability to survive. The food in the stores was sparse due to shortages. This lasted for 4 long years! The longer the conflict, the worse the healing phase. Within 2 weeks of the German Chancellor announcing the end of WWI, these millions of people ALL went into the healing phase all at the same time. It is during the healing phase that you experience symptoms of illness! What is the healing phase of the bronchia widening? Severe bronchitis, pneumonia. The body attempts to refill this lost tissue and you experience inflammation, fever, coughing, body aches, fatigue, etc. What is the healing phase of the extra lung tissue that grew? Decomposing of the tissue by TB bacteria and fungi. The symptoms of this healing phase are: severe coughing up of blood and tissue, fever, inflammation, severe mucous, body aches, fatigue. During this decomposing of the extra tissue (tumor), the body expels a lot of protein, and without replenishment, severe protein loss can result in death. Antibiotics did not exist yet. If TB bacteria does not exist in a person or they have been vaccinated against TB (big mistake), then the tumor will simply encapsulate and become dormant and not harm you. Who died during the Spanish Flu? Mainly the poor who could not afford to buy meat and proper nourishment, and the people who were directly impacted by the bombings and destruction of their homes. Millions of people suffered fear and death frights during the fighting of WWI, and millions of people all went into healing at the end of it. Not everyone was affected because not everyone suffered the same way. It’s not a “flu”, it’s not something you “catch”. It’s biological, meaningful, and unavoidable. One hundred years later, a Fear Campaign begins, using the media to spread it......

What you see as a masterpiece I view as the most vile and pornographic movie ever made. Streetwalkers are invariably abused and traumatized children. Thy are recruited by pimps and pimpettes when they are exhausted, hungry, and homeless. They are turned out to work their daily quota and are of course raped, beaten, drugged and frequently murdured. Very few meet billionaires on the “stroll” and live happily ever after in mansions. A pauper’s grave is more likely assuming their bodies are found. The cast, crew, producers and directors should live in perpetual shame for making a movie promoting prostitution as a viable lifestyle and enjoyable entertainment trope. Whatever you were paid it wasn’t worth your soul. Perhaps you would prefer to live a personal hell-on-earth. A police officer will knock at your door and drive you to a morgue where you can identify the dead child as your own before the forensic autopsy begins.

Never mind how radiantly beautiful Julia was (and still is) in this movie, or how well the chemistry between she and Richard Gere was, but this reworked-into-a-romantic-comedy script was SO well done. And, it made me feel so good when Vivian got even with the bitches on commission in the store. One of the best movies of all time in my book! ❤💙! 🐰

[@pamelatvarkunas8392]

It does make me laugh out loud picture in Molly ringwald and Richard gear lol.

[@robyn9513]

And here’s the irony, Richard Gerry didn’t want to do the movie and said no several times until he met Julia Roberts. Their chemistry was off the charts so much so, that I find it to be a huge coincidence that shortly after the movie was finished he met and started dating Cindy Crawford (Who looks similar to Roberts) if you look at their build,height,same hair and style, both had brown eyes and both were beautiful. I think he was smitten with Julia and knew she just looked at him as a coworker/friend, so he dates someone who reminds him of her but without the acting chops and charisma Julia had. This is just imo.

[@sgoell75]

That was one of the best part of the movie

[@randygarrett7299]

My favorite part was when they went to the restaurant and were served escargot. When Vivian shot one across the room and the Maitre d caught it with all the poise of a ML short stop .

There’s no way the movie would have been as good with Molly Ringwald. Her version of Vivian would have had a more subdued/less likable personality. The big personality that Julia brought to Vivian is the most endearing part of the character.

I went to school with Julia (Julie) at Griffin Middle in Smyrna, Ga back in 79-81..the classrooms were in pods with common areas between them and every Friday the teachers would let us perform skits for everyone. Nope, she never performed with us and mostly stayed to herself..I remember her crying a lot when she hadn't done her homework..of course, none of us ended up making $25M a movie like her, so wtf do I know...

You made some bloopers of your own. The necklace was a Ruby necklace with diamonds. It's not pronounced "demi" as in half, it is pronounced "duh-me" for the shortened form of Demetria and it wasn't the red jacket that started a trend it was the brown dress with off white polka dots.

[@jenniferparker6048]

Nobody smiles, laughs or cries like Julia Roberts. I think she is utterly irreplaceable in every role I have ever seen her play, and to substitute any other actress in one of her parts would be to diminish the picture (with the possible exception of Charlotte in Charlotte’s Web, as I think maybe Cate Blanchett could have pulled that one off).

I always thought the box was actually a blooper, but I guess it was a joke on Julia, however; it was a RUBY necklace with diamonds. Three different endings were filmed I believe.
