Juliette Binoche The English Patient 1997

Because Juliette is French, I had assumed she’d have a ton of prostitute roles on her resume, just like Simone Signoret, a former Oscar winner and French acting icon. The simple reason is the French are much more moderate and open-minded in their views on sexuality. But I could only come up with one hooker role for Juliette Binoche, and it was an American production. Entitled “Women & Men 2: In Love, There Are No Rules,” it featured three different stories. In Juliette’s arc, she plays a prostitute who hooks up with a writer, played by Scott Glenn, for a brief but torturous encounter that neither will forget.
