Top 10 movie prostitutes revealed!

Sydney, Nov 23 (ANI): Jodie Foster has topped the list of movie prostitutes compiled by an Australian Newspaper.

 

The Sydney Morning Herald placed Foster on the top stop for her role in the 1976 film 'Taxi Driver' where she played 12-year-old child prostitute named Iris.

 

Written by Paul Schrader and directed by Martin Scorsese, the notion of building a film around the obsession a psychopath (Robert DeNiro) has for a 12 year-old prostitute violated every tenet of taste, class and responsibility.

 

Kathleen Turner is the second in the list with her China Blue role in 'Crimes of Passion' (1984).

 

Turner's brilliant turn as the energetic whore in Ken Russell's bizarre, black psycho-sex comedy was studded with great lines and an unmatched enthusiasm.

 

With Anthony Perkins as the deviant priest who carries a bag full of sex toys, the film stands as a perverse milestone of the hooker movie genre.

 

Taking the third place is Elisabeth Shue from the film 'Leaving Las Vegas' (1995).

 

Shue's performance as a hotel room working girl, Sera, will forever resonate because of the depth of her character and for the unapologetic pride she takes in her work.

 

Others on the list include Judy Davis from 'Winter of our Dreams' (1981), Sasha Grey from The Girlfriend Experience' (2009), Mia Farrow from 'Shadows and Fog' (1991), Hazelle Goodman from 'Deconstructing Harry' (1997), Julia Roberts from 'Pretty Woman' (1990), Richard Gere from American Gigolo (1980) and Barbara Hershey from 'The Last Temptation of Christ' (1988).

 

In Pretty Woman, ridiculously beautiful LA street girl Vivian Ward (Roberts) gets swept off her feet by asset-stripping executive (Richard Gere), whose forbidden love for her triggers a major change in his corporate character.

 

A seminal film that opened the floodgates for hit R-rated comedies, the film caused much controversy over Roberts' glorified portrayal and the fairy tale treatment of prostitution. (ANI)
