Trivia: The scene where Edward offers Viv the necklace and shuts the box on her fingers wasn't scripted - Richard Gere did it as a joke. You can tell because when he does it, Julia Roberts laughs and looks up and around (ie. at the film crew) - in the context of the scene there wasn't anyone there for her to look at. (01:21:45)

More trivia for Pretty Woman

Question: Was the story about why Vivian became a prostitute talked about? She did mention coming to LA and not being able to get a job or have money.

Answer: There were no details other than Vivian's family was dysfunctional, and her abusive mother mistreated her by frequently locking her in the attic. Presumably, she left home as soon as possible. She turned to prostitution because it's more profitable than a low-wage job.
