Screening of Garry Marshall's 1990 romantic comedy Pretty Woman at the historic Dome Cinema in Worthing.
Pretty Woman is screening at the Dome Cinema on Saturday 7 November, starting at 19:30. It's Garry Marshall's modern-day fairy tale, and it runs for 119 minutes.
If you've seen it before, you know the setup: Edward Lewis, played by Richard Gere, is a self-obsessed corporate raider who crosses paths with Vivian Ward, played by Julia Roberts, a free-spirited hooker. He bankrolls a wardrobe and cosmetic makeover that transforms her, and the film made Roberts a superstar. Her triumphant return to a posh Rodeo Drive shop is widely considered its best scene. Hector Elizondo also stars as the concierge.
It's a romantic comedy that started life as a much darker story about prostitutes and drug dealers, though that version never made it to the screen. The one we got is the light, polished version that turned into a global hit and left Roberts as one of the biggest names in Hollywood. Seeing it on the big screen is a different experience from catching it on telly, especially when it comes to those Rodeo Drive montages.
