      Don't bother

    Being Julia Roberts

    • 22 Sep 2010

    Imagine how different things might have been if Molly Ringwald had accepted the part of Vivian in Pretty Woman when it was offered to her twenty one years ago. This LA Cinderella story, with a hooker standing in for Cinders and an investment banker as her Prince Charming, was budgeted at approximately $14 million, and made more than $450 million worldwide – a fairytale that studio executives whispered to their girlfriends at bedtime.
