My favourite film is “The Pretty Woman”. That is a romantic story about a millionaire, who accidentally drove into a strange and poor district of New-York, where he met a poor girl in the street, where she decided to earn money for her living. She has the aim: to study at the university and to obtain the profession, but she doesn’t have money for it. The millionaire got interested in her for her behaviour and knowledge of cars. He asked her to spend some evenings with him and offered her a good sum of money for her job. When he had to go to the official meeting with his business partners he asked her to accompany him. She didn’t have the appropriate clothes for that occasion and she didn’t know how to behave herself in the upper society. The manager of the hotel, they stayed in, liked her for her sincerity and simplicity and decided to help her. He not only helped her to buy nice and rich clothes, he also taught her how and which kind of a fork, a knife and a spoon to use, how to eat different dishes, how to behave herself at the table.
When the millionaire met her in the evening he couldn’t believe his eyes. At the dinner-party she was a little bit clumsy in her behaviour but it helped them in the talk with the business partners. The millionaire realised that they were from different levels of the society, and they had to part in some days but her practical knowledge of life, her simple manners of behaviour helped him to achieve success in his business affairs. She even helped him to overcome his fear of height. Some days passed and they had to part. She left him without taking any money or clothes he bought for her. The millionaire was much surprised at it. He saw that though she was poor she had a rich soul. He realised he couldn’t live without her. With the help of the manager he found her house and confessed her in his love. Watching this film I was charmed with perfect work of Richard Gere and

    As it was for generations within his family he had always been told that money could buy happiness and that it should be saved and invested in order to make the most out of it. It was from there on that he followed those guidelines and realized much later on in his life, around the age of 55, that money wasn’t the key to living happily. His home life had become rather strained as it was only him and his wife since his kids were already moved out. Work had been keeping him bogged down while his wife sat home alone watching infomercials. They had a brief disagreement one night and decided that the way they were going wasn’t working out and something needed to change. On a whim he suggested that he take some time off and they go see a concert. Much to his wife’s surprise at the left field suggestion she agreed and the next week they went to see their first concert. As they walked in there was a distinct feeling of unease as it was a subject neither one had studied past their college education. Once they sat down and the music began to pour forth they were both taken aback, especially Rod, and were drawn to the mysterious sensation cast upon them. With that experience he decided from then on that he would become a sponsor of the symphony to keep it alive and prosperous to recreate the feeling of euphoria that he felt during that first performance. His…
