Pretty Baby (1978) is a seminal, deeply controversial film directed by Louis Malle, starring a 12-year-old Brooke Shields as Violet, a child growing up in a 1917 New Orleans brothel. The film is noted for its high-quality production, artistic photography, and its unflinching look at child exploitation, which caused significant public outcry upon release. Film Overview & Context
