    Elaborate TV. Movie About The World's Oldest But Upgraded Profession.
    L.A. Johns is by far the best made for TV. movie about the big money sex industry, as told through the life of L.A. call girl Liz (Brittney Powell). I recorded this movie when it first aired on Fox in 1997 and still watch it on a monthly basis because this movie is great! Thomas Calabro gives a funny and gritty performance as the sexually addicted David Abrams. The main reasons for people to view this movie are to see how people use one another to get what pleasures they want being sex, money, power, control, and love. I'm glad a TV. movie was made about the world of a call girl and her clients. Many people fail to realize and understand this very private and discreet professional world. Remember we all wear masks and mirrors reflect no matter how beautiful or ugly it may be that's how we must look at these situations and see ourselves.
