Shields shares her side of the story when it comes to how she was treated on sets and her own frame of mind at the time in specific instances.
Looking at Shields’ career at face value, it’s easy to simply cringe at the idea of her being in nude scenes at the age of 11 and so forth, but the documentary does a great job of explaining how everything took place, along with discussing how what was going on in the world impacted the phenomenon of Shields’ (often inappropriate) young fame. The Pretty Baby documentary takes viewers through Shields' career in acting and modeling from the very beginning, and very much discusses what led her to fame and controversial projects, like the Pretty Baby movie, Blue Lagoon and Endless Love, along with her sexualized Calvin Klein ads, which all happened when she was a minor.
