Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Milk Money is a 1994 romantic comedy film directed by Richard Benjamin, starring Melanie Griffith, Ed Harris, Anne Heche, Malcolm McDowell and Michael Patrick Carter.Set in a Pennsylvania suburb, the film follows a group of pre-teen boys who, convinced that they're falling behind in the "battle of the sexes" at their local school, decide they want to see a naked woman, and save up their money to hire a hooker for that express purpose. The group, led by Frank Wheeler (Carter) head to the city and meet a prostitute, who identifies herself as "V" (Griffith), who accepts the deal. After the exchange, the children's bikes are stolen, forcing V to give them a ride home.V's car breaks down in front of the home of Frank's father, Tom (Harris), who is a widower. She lies to him that she's a math tutor and he helps fix her car. Right afterwards, she learns that her pimp has been murdered — by a mob boss named Waltzer (McDowell) from whom he had stolen money. Fearing for her life (as she believes the mob will track her down to find the money), V asks the kids to hide her, which they do—in their treehouse.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The film garnered notice in the pre-production phase when its script was sold to Paramount Pictures for a record $1.1 million in 1992 — a record for a romantic-comedy spec script at that time. | |

Adults Are Useless | |
Milk Money / int_a939d96a | comment |
Adults Are Useless: The teacher never actually is seen disciplining the boys for displaying V to the whole class and locking herself out in the process; nor do any of the adults or Frank's dad do much to intervene, let alone recognize the boys' lewd crusade. | |

Milk Money / int_b06bbf4b | comment |
Be Careful What You Wish For: Frank's teacher, in response to him apparently not understanding the female reproductive system, orders him to make an oral presentation to his class, complete with "visual aids". This, coupled with V's arrival, prompts him to bring her in (with her wearing flesh-colored one-piece) in order to demonstrate said system, much to the shock of his teacher and the amusement of his classmates. | |
