Description: BRAND NEW / SEALED / NTSC ALL REGIONSPLAYS ON ANY DVD PLAYER WORLDWIDE In 1917, in the red-light district of New Orleans, they called her Pretty BabyInternationally acclaimed director Louis Malle has taken a taboo subject–child prostitution– and created in Pretty Baby a film of humanity and beauty. E.J. Bellocq (Keith Carradine) is a photographer in 1917 obsessed with the prostitutes in New Orleans’ red-light district. Violet (12-year-old Brooke Shields), a young girl, bewitches Bellocq with her curiosity and naïve coquettishness. Malle’s level-headed treatment of this controversial theme and exceptional performances by the entire cast (especially Susan Sarandon as Violet’s prostitute mother) make Pretty Baby a must-see for all serious film fans.Critic Reviews:“A sentimental education beautifully played by both Carradine and Brooke Shields.” – Sight and Sound“This visually evocative tale of a child prostitue, Louis Malle's first American film, is not as strong as his next (Atlantic City), but Susan Sarandon and Brooke Shields are splendid.” – EmanuelLevy.Com“Despite its notoriety, this period drama is cosier than might have been expected.” – Radio Times
