Join us for this much-requested open air screening of a romantic comedy that took the world by storm in 1990; complete with a great soundtrack, wonderful comedic moments and two outstanding leads that bounce off each other perfectly.
While on a business trip in Los Angeles, Edward (Richard Gere), who makes a living buying and breaking up companies, picks up a prostitute, Vivian (Julia Roberts), on a lark; after Edward hires Vivian to stay with him for the weekend, the two get closer, only to discover there are significant hurdles to overcome as they try to bridge the gap between their very different worlds. In 1990 this neo-Cinderella flick was the ultimate guilty pleasure. It relaunched Gere as a lead of silvery-haired distinction and sealed Roberts as the biggest female star of the day. This becomes apparent about fifteen minutes in, when Vivian is soaking in a tub in a posh hotel, earphones on, harmonizing off-key to Prince’s ‘Kiss’ and oblivious of how she looks to Edward, who is watching her and losing his heart like the rest of us.
