Set in 1917, it focuses on a 12-year-old girl being raised in a brothel in Storyville, the red-light district of New Orleans, by her prostitute mother. Barbara Steele, Diana Scarwid, and Antonio Fargas appear in supporting roles. The film is based on the true account of a young girl who was sexually exploited by being forced into prostitution by her mother, a theme which was recounted in historian Al Rose's 1974 book Storyville, New Orleans: Being an Authentic Illustrated Account of the Notorious Red-Light District. It is also based on the life of photographer Ernest Bellocq, who photographed various New Orleans prostitutes in the early twentieth century.[6][7] The title, Pretty Baby, is derived from the Tony Jackson song of the same name, which is featured on the film's soundtrack. The project marked Malle's first American film production, as his previous works had been produced in his native France.[6] Filming took place, on-location, in New Orleans in the spring of 1977.
