In my opinion, if you like exciting and amazing advetures, you'll enjoy reading this book.
PRETTY WOMANI love watching films on T.V, especially in bad weather, because I enjoy with my husband a lot. I mainly like comedy, romantic and adventure movies; and on the other hand, I hate scary movies. I can’t stand them. If I saw one of them, I wouldn’t enjoy watching it, I’d probably be tense, and I prefer to relax while I see a movie.
My favorite romantic film is “Pretty Woman”; I’ve seen it at least five times because I love it, although most of people think that it’s a cheesy film. Perhaps, it’s like a fairytale, however, I like it a lot because from my point of view, nowadays there are too many problems about economy. In my opinion if you see this film, you’ll probably smile a lot. Therefore it’ll help you to forget about real life and its troubles.
This film is about a very handsome and rich man called Edward (played by Richard Gere), who decides to hire a prostitute called Vivian (played by Julia Roberts) only one night, but after that night, he notices that he fells attracted to her, so he tells her that if she stays with him a whole week in the hotel, he’ll pay her three thousand dollars, and she accepts.
She is a little ordinary girl, so he teaches her how to behave and how to dress much better, although the hotel director helps her a lot too, because Edward has to work most of the time. They spend a great week together, and she finally falls in love with him, but what do you think that will happen? I’m sure that you have seen this film, and you probably know what happens.
