Over the years, many rumors have circulated about the relationship between Richard Gere and Julia Roberts. Especially after their collaboration in one of Hollywood's most iconic movies.
Although both have always kept a professional relationship, there have been speculations about the real chemistry that existed between them. However, what has truly surprised fans is a detail that, although seemingly insignificant, has been there all along.
Rumors about Richard Gere and Julia Roberts confirmed
It's impossible to talk about the professional relationship between Richard Gere and Julia Roberts without mentioning Pretty Woman, the movie that catapulted their careers. But among the dialogues and romantic moments, there's something that even the biggest fans of the movie hadn't noticed until now.
A small mistake in one of the film's most iconic scenes. A slip that at the time went unnoticed, but over time has gained notoriety. Despite its simplicity, it has sparked curiosity among the film's most alert fans.
This "slip" happens at the 32-minute mark of the movie, when the characters Vivian (Roberts) and Edward (Gere) share breakfast. At first, Vivian is eating a croissant while Edward reads the newspaper, but when the camera returns to her, the breakfast has changed.
Now she's eating a bitten pancake. How did this happen? The answer lies in a decision that wasn't an editing mistake, but a conscious change that Garry Marshall, the director, chose to keep during filming.
Pretty Woman has become a true classic
During filming, two versions of the scene were shot: one with the croissant and another with the pancake. Marshall preferred the take where Roberts's performance was more natural, even though this meant a change in the breakfast between shots.
This is just one of the small goofs that fans have started to notice over the years. Despite these mistakes, Pretty Woman remains one of the most beloved movies of all time, and its magic has never faded, despite the small errors.
Sometimes, what makes a movie memorable isn't its perfect details, but the moments that linger in our memory. Those small mistakes, instead of detracting, add a touch of authenticity and closeness to the story, making it more real and human.
