This movie could have been better if......

Love Ranch cannot be the bomb other posters try to say it is.

I watched the deleted scenes and decided better editing could have helped with continuity of the story.

Fortunately, all sequences with Joe Pesci singing were cut.
Sorry, Joe. You ain't no Frank Sinatra.

The deleted scene in the "French" restaurant introduces us to the congressman and the real estate salesman, both sleazeballs in their own right. We also get a better glimpse of the Native American law enforcement officer, the bodyguard who creates metal sculputure and Pesci's girlfriend Christina.

After watching the restaurant sequence, I better undestood what transpired later on between Joe Pesci and the real estate agent in the house for sale.

Christina ends up being the real estate agent's "prize" at the boxing match.

Additionally, the scene where Joe Pesci "steals" his wife's fur coat for his date to wear to the restaurant makes him seem all the more pathetic.

Finally, the scene when the grossly obese man dies with while engaging in "business" with one of the girls is disgusting. However, I thought the scene provides glimpse of the sorted often repulsive realities of prostitution.
