Re: best hooker movies

Well, of those not already mentioned, the best one I can think of that centres on hookers is Working Girls.



Other good films where a hooker is present as a character or even plot-centric:

Trading Places
The Hidden (I think only Blarg will know this one)
Unforgiven
Moulin Rouge
Belle De Jour



I guess you could include Breakfast at Tiffanys, though I never really liked it. Also, a Jesus movie or two, for Mary Magdelene.

Night Shift - Michael Keaton is truly hilarious in this.

The Happy Hooker? Didn't see it so I can't say if it was any good.

Re: best hooker movies

Now I know whose gimmick account it is: kudzudemon's! His last post mirrors the perverse sense of humor that pasted an overweight, over-the-hill pic of John Travolta in a hooker thread. Mystery solved.

Not a bad guess, actually, but wrong. I have no gimmick account. The voices in my head have separate accounts, but they won't tell me what their usernames are. For all I know, hobby, they may be you...

And you're just now discovering my perversity? I must be slipping...

As for the Travolta pic: you know I'm not a breast man.

Ahhh...so I would automatically know that you're not a breast man because you have somehow uncovered that I am one of your other "voice" accounts. Damn...I have been found out. Back to the back of your subconscious for me. Cheerio.

Re: best hooker movies

Is the joke that travolta is a whore (hooker) who'll do any film, no matter how bad?

Like michael caine used to be made fun of, before he became respectable again in the last ten years?

Re: best hooker movies

Working Girls was awesome. I thought I was, like, the only person who ever saw that.

Best hooker scene, imo, is Klute where Jane Fonda is with a john, moaning it up and acting passionate, while checking her watch behind his head.

I am beyond proud of this submission. I know we're talking hooker movies here, but this scene is phenomenal.
