PRETTY BABY (1978) - HD Trailer 💋

Hattie (Susan Sarandon), a New Orleans hooker, meets a photographer named Bellocq (Keith Carradine) at her brothel one night and, after he photographs her, he befriends her 12-year-old daughter, Violet (Brooke Shields). When Violet is brought on as a working girl by her mother’s madam and Hattie skips town to get married, Violet quickly loses her innocence and focuses on reuniting with Bellocq. But a life with Bellocq is compromised for Violet after her mother returns to town.

This worldwide first on Blu-ray comes from a newly restored 4K scan by Paramount Pictures, and includes a NEW interview with Brooke Shields alongside other brand new special features.

Met with critical praise yet controversial at the time of its release even after 45 years based on a true account
A lot of this is easily unsettling right off the bat since it involves a minor engaging in an adult profession
Certainly has taboos and themes of sexual awakening
Plus we're confined to the brothel house for an hour and 13 min before Violet finally ventures out
This could've been shortened to about 90 minutes
Yet Shields attempts to make the best of a young upcoming woman finding her place making it good-hearted and elegiac
Sarandon does get some equally good screen time too
Not the easiest thing to digest I admit
