One for the Money is a 2012 American crime comedy film adapted from the 1994 novel of the same name by Janet Evanovich, directed by Julie Anne Robinson and starring Katherine Heigl.Stephanie Plum (Heigl) is a born-and-bred Joisey girl who finds herself in financial straits when she's fired from her job as manager of the lingerie department at Macy's. After being rejected for a variety of demeaning jobs, she blackmails her bail-bondsman cousin Vinnie into letting her recover some of his bail-jumpers for him.Taking in small-time quarries for the money, Plum has her sights set on the $50,000 bounty for the capture of her ex-boyfriend, vice cop and murder suspect Joe Morelli (Jason O'Mara). As she gathers evidence to track Morelli, she comes to suspect that he may not actually be guilty. | |

Scenery Censor: Stephanie gets naked and handcuffed to a shower and is just barely covered by the shower curtain. An old man who likes to expose himself is covered by conveniently placed objects, thank goodness. | |

Lingerie Scene: Stephanie takes her shirt off so Morelli can attach a Hidden Wire. He pauses to admire her breasts for a few seconds and compliments her on her pretty bra before proceeding. The camera zooms in on her breasts while he’s taping the device to her cleavage. | |

One for the Money / int_4160410d | comment |
Damsel in Distress: Surprisingly inverted, as Stephanie manages to knock a guy to the ground and handcuff him after he shoots Ranger, she pepper sprays Benito Ramirez while he's fighting Joe, allowing him to knock out Benito, and when Big Bad Jimmy Alpha has Stephanie and Joe cornered and is planning to kill them, Stephanie knocks him down and he shoots her in the ass, but it barely slows her down and she manages to grab a gun from her purse and promptly shoots Jimmy in the chest five times in a row. | |

Adaptation Amalgamation | |
One for the Money / int_5ee26f31 | comment |
Adaptation Amalgamation: Several plot elements introduced in Two for the Dough (such as Big Blue and Lula starting work at the Bond's Office) were incorporated into this film. References were also made to Ranger expanding into securities, which was introduced later in the books. Katherine Heigl and Janet Evanovich both suggested this would've been taken further had more movies been made - since the series was too large to realistically film each individual entry, they felt compositing various elements from the books into several films was the most feasible route. | |

Hand-or-Object Underwear: Morelli barges in on Stephanie in the shower, causing her to cover herself in panic. He gives her a Modesty Towel and handcuffs her to the shower rod, while he searches her apartment for his car keys. When he can't find them, he comes back and takes away her towel, leaving her naked and handcuffed to her shower rod. She has to call Ranger to get her out, while she's barely covering herself with the curtain. | |

Ascended Extra: Lula and Jackie have larger roles here than in the novel, partly because Ramirez’s attack does not put Lula into a coma. Mary Lou also has more to do, with Stephanie frequently calling her to give updates on the Morrelli case. William Earling has slightly more screentime compared to his book counterpart as a result of taking Clarence Sampson’s place in the story as Stephanie’s first FTA. | |

Setting Update: The film takes place in 2011, the year of intended release, instead of 1994, the year the book was published and set. This makes sense, not only for budgetary reasons but also because each subsequent book always reflects the time and technology of when it was written. | |

Compressed Adaptation | |
One for the Money / int_bdc94cd9 | comment |
Compressed Adaptation: Stephanie's apprehension of Clarence Sampson, a rather lengthy segment of the novel, was completely omitted. Handwaved (and subtly lampshaded) in the film by Stephanie claiming it would take too long to track him down. She opts to go after William Earling first instead. Morelli tossing Stephanie's keys into the dumpster occurs much later in the book; the film incorporates this event into their first onscreen encounter. Stephanie’s showdown with Jimmy Alpha occurs at her apartment in the book, but the film merges this with the events at the marina. Stephanie also subdues and pepper sprays Benito Ramirez during this sequence, an event which occurred earlier in the book. Screenwriter Liz Brixius revealed that she used the abridged audiobook as her template. As it was a shortened version of the story that had author approval, she felt it would be a useful guide. | |

Lighter and Softer: Though retaining the same main story as its source novel, the film is noticeably more comedic and less overtly violent, in an attempt to make it feel more tonally in line with later books in the series. As an example, Stephanie’s interactions with Lula and Jackie are considerably more humorous, eliminating the often graphic descriptions of Ramirez’s known abuse. | |
