When 12-year-old Frank Wheeler (Carter) and his two buddies save up their milk money and head into the city in search of a woman who will let them see her naked body, they think they’ve died and gone ...( read more  read more... )to heaven when V (Griffith) agrees to disrobe for them. Now stuck in the city and out of their element, the boys seek refuge in V who agrees to drive them back to the suburbs and away from the city’s chaos. But, when V’s car breaks down outside of his house, Frank decides that V would make a good step mom, and proceeds to play matchmaker for his dad, Tom (Harris). Thanks to Frank, Tom thinks that V is a math tutor, while V thinks that Frank knows the truth about her occupation. What ensues is a long, hilarious conversation that revolves around this comical misunderstanding.

    Milk Money starring Melanie Griffith and Ed Harris is a cute film about a widowed father with a young son. The two meet a wild woman whom brings a lot of fun to there lifes.....a welcomed change for one and all. I enjoyed the movie.

    "Milk Money" is a comedy/drama about a group of boys who save up money so they can see a naked woman. They find V, a hooker who is short of money and trying to get away from the one she works for. She stays awhile in Frank's treehouse until she can get her car to working again. V...( read more) (Melanie Griffith) begins to like Ed Harris after Frank tells her a lie about what his dad said about what she does for a living.
    I recommend anyone to see "Milk Money." It has a few funny parts to it, but it's more of a drama movie. And it's a good one at that. It's a good story of how a struggling hooker and a normal, everyday man try to sort out their differences while a young boy tries to keep them together. NOTE: That was my Amazon review from the year 2000. I've watched this one several times and like it each and every one.
