3 Real Life Events That Would Make Great Movies

2. Amsterdam's Oldest Prostitutes

70-year-old identical twins Louise and Matine Fokkens are the oldest swingers in town, literally. At the age most old dears are settling down to watch Deal or No Deal with a nice cuppa these two are entering their 50th year as the longest serving and oldest prostitutes in Amsterdam's famed Red Light District. The two appeared on ITV's This Morning opposite Phillip Schofield in matching red cardigans to discuss their fascinating lives which included escaping deadly pimps and setting up the first informal trade union for prostitutes. Not to trivialise their often harrowing escapades, this could be a light hearted movie with some real heart. Perhaps transplant the story to the Yorkshire Dales and remove the pimp element and you've a sure fire next Calendar Girls on your hands we think. And if you wanted to keep them in Amsterdam then you could call the film Meet The Fokkens. Win Win.
