Love Ranch
A story about money, power, murder... and the one thing that makes the world go round.
Inspired by an incredible true story...
As proprietors of Nevada's first legalized brothel, Grace (Helen Mirren) and Charlie Bontempo (Joe Pesci) aren't your typical married couple. When Grace falls for a heavyweight boxer contracted to Charlie, passions erupt, leading to murderous consequences.

Return of the Great Pesci! - CaptainRhodes
Good to see Joe Pesci back and running his mouth again. I missed him. Had me a good time with Love Ranch.
USELESS FACTS:
Based at least roughly on 1976 events involving the Mustang Ranch in Sparks Nv. and Argentine former heavyweight Oscar "Ringo" Bonavena.
In 1999, Pesci announced his retirement from acting to pursue a musical career and to enjoy life away from the camera. He returned to acting when he did a cameo in De Niro's 2006 film The Good Shepherd. He is the star in the 2010 brothel drama Love Ranch, alongside Helen Mirren.very good performances! - tbird
i thought this movie was both funny and sad. it showed a strong female character in an original way.the storyline is quite original as well. the ending had a surprise and i like surprise endings. i found the actors to be amazing. jo and helen mirin had some very sharp and witty lines.i would highly recommend this film!Kinda Lovin' the Love Ranch - 0930tracey
I was pleasantly surprised by Love Ranch. I went into it thinking it was going to be vulgar and overly sexual, but it really wasn't. It had wonderful characters and Helen Mirren, as always, was phenomenal, even playing a brothel owner. I actually shed a tear at the end of this film. I recommend it! But watch with an open mind.
