My Favorite Scene
I am not really a movie buff. But I find that when I fall in love with the movie, I fall hard, and I love it forever. One of the movies that I love, my all time favorite movie will forever be Pretty Woman. Pretty Woman, I am sure it is loved by most, but it is by far my movie of choice. I literally know the scenes word for word. The movies actors are Julia Roberts and Richard Gere. Pretty Woman's plot is about falling in love in the most unexpected way. Julia Roberts character is of all things a prostitute who meets a businessman who took her to his hotel room where he is staying for the week. The movie takes place in Los Angeles, which he does not reside in. One of my favorite scenes is the bathtub scene. In the scene, Richard Gere's character (Edward) walks into the bathroom where Julia Roberts character (Vivian) is taking a bath. In this scene she is singing a rendition song of Prince (the singer). She is clearly relaxing and enjoying the perks of the rich and famous while in this huge bathtub, just enjoying the moment. He walks in and is clearly enamored by her beauty. It is clearly not her voice because she is a terrible singer. He stands above her in his business suit, while she's there in her nude state covered with bubbles, eyes closed and into the music. He stares at her first while being on the phone. Clearly he is attracted, then proceeds to interrupt her with a business proposition. He asks her to be his for the week. And they pretty much negotiate an amount that he is willing to pay. What I like about the scene, is the way it flows. The scene did not really have a fast or slow pace. But what I like is the way it all came together. The negotiation, the singing, and the joy which they both had being in each others presence. It did not go through shot by shot, its flowed which works and was good for the person or persons who may have seem the movie today. This movie to me would be a filmmaker's dream. It has such a beautiful love story and the production and creation is truly amazing. There's so much I love about this movie but this scene is by far my favorite.
