Indecent Proposal
Published by Scooter February 22nd, 2006 in Cheesy Tearjerkers, Pure Trash.Plot in a nutshell: happily married husband and wife (Diana and David, Moore and Harrelson) are in debt. Millionaire (Redford) sees Diana and offers them $1,000,000 to sleep with her. Making the the decision whether or not to accept this proposal is a big deal. The happy couple break up, reunite etc.
What was so riveting about this movie was not the actual film itself, but hearing the conversations of the viewers on their way out of the theater. Eavesdropping in on these snippets of conversation gave me valuable insight into human socio-psychology. For example, here’s one exerpt:
Wife (hesitantly, to husband): Honey? Um, would you let me do that? For a million dollars?
Husband: Honey, I’d let you go for 10 bucks and a six-pack of Bud!
And another example:
Woman 1: Ok. You get a million dollars AND you get to sleep with Robert Redford? What’s the decision?
Woman 2: Yeah, I can understand having a hard time deciding between Robert OR a million bucks, but BOTH?!?!
There you have it. If you can’t see this film in a theater, then at least rent it with a bunch of strangers. It will inspire many ethical and moral debates.
