Personal Services (1987)

Personal Services movie synopsis. Christine Painter (Julie Walters) is a sexually naive waitress and single-mother who pays for her teenage son’s tuition by renting flats to local tarts. She later becomes a call girl herself – joining her friend Shirley (Shirley Stelfox) and their “maid” Dolly (Danny Schiller) – and specializes in fetish/kink roleplay with older gentlemen. With her new family of friends and admirers, she becomes a huge sensation leading to wealth and infamy in the tabloids. The brothel business also brings out Christine’s self-confidence, and leads to repairing a previously strained relationship with her father.
