Something better than "Little Vera" (film course recommendation)

[Nicole Monnier]

Michael!

EXCELLENT suggestions - I'd forgotten about "Adam's Rib". And someone else
suggested that "Intergirl" would play well off of "Pretty Woman" (one should
make the most of students' cultural references/background!).

Thanks!

Nicole
