There’s plenty to love about the 1990s classic Pretty Woman… but just as much to cringe at. Savannah Hankinson, former assistant to rom-com royalty like Nancy Meyers and Rob Marshall, joins DB to unpack the good, the bad, and the downright creepy. From a disturbingly predatory George Costanza to the strange class politics bubbling under the surface, we break down whether this beloved rom-com classic still shines or if it’s better left on the streets!

Guest details

Savannah Hankinson is the Head of Development at Meet Cute. She previously worked as an assistant to Nancy Meyers (Something's Gotta Give), Rob Marshall (The Little Mermaid), and Justin Paul (La La Land).
