The Happy Hooker ★★½ 1975 (R)

Xaviera Hollander's cheeky (and bestselling) memoir of her transition from office girl to “working girl” has been brought to the screen with a sprightly (though sanitary) air of naughtiness, with Redgrave enjoyable in title role. Followed by “The Happy Hooker Goes to Washington” and “The Happy Hooker Goes Hollywood.” 96m/C VHS . Lynn Redgrave, Jean-Pierre Aumont, Nicholas Pryor; D: Nicholas Sgarro.
