What an interesting review! To be honest, I had absolutely no idea this film existed, but you've completely sold me on it. I find the approach you mention fascinating: portraying a New York brothel as if it were just any office, with its routine, schedules, and hallway gossip.

I'm definitely going to look for it this weekend, because the debates you mention about morality, relationships, and financial independence still resonate so strongly today. Thanks a million for the recommendation!
