who is the brunette hooker


She seems to be always around when Sera is trying to hook up with some guy, like the older guy at the bar, and also when she was with Ben.

Mariska Hargitay. Yes, the one from Law and Order.

why is she always around when Ben is there, is she like Sera's rival?

reply

Oh man she was so hot back then. Still hot now.

I think the movie tried to represent the reality of prostitution, all the way down to the competition. I found it interesting how she was treated by the casino manager also. There wasn't really one glamorous think about her life, which is probably true for a prostitute at that level. I heard the original screenplay for pretty woman was supposed to be similar to this but Hollywood chose to make it a fantasy.
