I was offered 'Pretty Woman.' I was offered 'Big' and 'Dead Poets Society.' But what was important to me in those years was to make movies, to make these Albert Brooks movies.

I really detest movies like Indecent Proposal and Pretty Woman because they send a message to women that sleeping with a rich man is the ultimate goal and really that's such a small part of it.

One of my favorite films is 'Pretty Woman.'

Even my mother told me: 'You are a handsome woman, but you're not pretty. Pretty girls don't have those big bones.'

How about 'Pretty Woman'?

Valerie is a pretty strong woman. She's not intimidated.
