Filmmaker Kenny Chang joins The Movie Group Chat and brings a classic with him: Pretty Woman.
Kenny considers it a top-five — maybe even top-three — romantic comedy. But more than 35 years after its release, does the movie still work? And could the relationship between Vivian and Edward actually happen today?
The conversation quickly turns to Julia Roberts and a bigger question: If Pretty Woman never happened, would she still have become one of the biggest movie stars in Hollywood?
We break down Roberts’ magnetic performance, Richard Gere’s restraint opposite her, their nonverbal acting and chemistry, and why so much of the Julia Roberts we would eventually see throughout her career is already present in this performance. Then we debate where Gere belongs among the great rom-com leading men and whether Hollywood could still make a movie like Pretty Woman today.
Before we get there, Kenny and Chet also take us inside the making of Piece of Chet and what can happen when filmmakers stop waiting for permission and simply make something with the resources they have.
Where does Pretty Woman rank for you — and was Julia Roberts always going to become a movie star?
Join the group chat and tell us what movie we should watch next.
