Eva Mendes visited prostitutes to prepare for a film role.
The Hollywood actress – who plays a drug-addled hooker in new movie ‘Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call’, in which she stars alongside Nicolas Cage â wanted to understand the part better and found speaking to working girls an enlightening experience.
She said: “I met with call girls, the type who met clients in grand apartments. I learned quite a bit.”
The 35-year-old Latino star also revealed she had been looking forward to working with cult director Werner Herzog for the first time.
She told German magazine TV Movie: “I was bitterly disappointed. There were no tantrums, no shouting, no crazy demands. It was almost boring.”
Eva recently compared ‘Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call’ to Picasso’s artwork because it was completely different to her normal work.

Every black character other than our homeless hero is a criminal, a drug addict or worse. His success in school and sports completely relies on the generosity of the kindly white folks who take him into their fabulous estate. While his own people wallow in their degrading ghetto lifestyle, he has breakfast on the veranda with his new family. In the end, there’s a lot to like and a lot to ponder in this film.
So ‘Bad’ it’s good
After sleepwalking through a string of silly paycheck movies, Nicolas Cage is wild and crazy again in “Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans.” This is the Oscar-winning actor’s most energized role since “Face/Off.”
Directed by always-great Werner Herzog, it’s an enjoyable remake of the 1992 cult classic about a rogue cop.
In this incarnation, the setting is post-Katrina New Orleans and Cage is homicide cop Terence McDonagh. The story revolves around his investigation of some very grisly murders, his call girl girlfriend (Eva Mendes), his father, his bookie and his boss. Oh yes, there is also his cocaine habit. And some iguanas.

 Police are looking for a minivan responsible for a hit-and-run that sent one man to hospital in life-threatening condition.
Around 7:15 Wednesday night, a silver Kia Sedona sped through the parking lot of the Big Easy strip club at 32nd Avenue and 32nd Street northeast.
The van struck a man, throwing him 20 feet in the air.
Duty Inspector Rob Williams tells 660News the van took off, but police have a lead on who they’re looking for.
He says they have good video surveillance of the three suspects from inside the strip club, but they’re not sure at this point who was behind the wheel.
Williams says the 32-year-old victim is in grave condition, adding it will be a miracle if he survives

Directed by Werner (“Grizzly Man”) Herzog and starring Nicolas Cage — two of the more outlandish personalities in current cinema — “Bad Lieutenant” is, to quote a different Cage performance, rockin’ good news.
There was a 1992 film, directed by Abel Ferrara and starring Harvey Keitel, called “Bad Lieutenant.” There’s not much connection between the two pictures.
This one begins with cocky N’awlins cop Terry McDonagh (Cage) being injured in a Katrina-related accident. Months later, hopped up on painkillers and sleazily creative when it comes to making evidence disappear, McDonagh is assigned to a multiple homicide.
The film never really gets too deeply into the detail of this killing; it’s much more focused on Terry’s deteriorating mental and physical state. He’s trying to care for his prostitute girlfriend (Eva Mendes), in serious hock to his bookie (Brad Dourif), and worried about his father (Tom Bower) and dad’s boozy wife (Jennifer Coolidge).

Cage plays Terence McDonagh, an unhinged Big Easy policeman, operating in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, who has performed the legitimately heroic act of saving a prisoner when the levees broke and has thus won a medal.
But he also injured his back during the daring rescue and then became addicted to pain pills. Soon he was hooked on coke, smack, weed, and crack, to say nothing of booze and betting. The whole shebang.
His girlfriend is a prostitute played by Eva Mendes, and his already questionable moral judgment, such as it is, is further impaired when he and his partner (Val Kilmer) come into contact with a notorious drug dealer (the rapper Xzibit) who is responsible for murdering a family of illegal Senegalese immigrants as part of a drug-related vendetta.

Not so much inspired as ignited by an eccentric script from television writer William J. Finkelstein, Herzog creates an atmosphere sticky with amorality. For the filmmakers, New Orleans is a delirium state where all bad deeds go unpunished and vice versa.
The film spins with McDonagh’s whirling moral compass. As the waters rise in the Katrina prologue, McDonagh dives into a lockdown to set free a drowning prisoner.
His reward for this act of kindness? A promotion and a back injury that gets him addicted to Vicodin. In a pinch, he’ll use any prescription or street drug that can stanch the pain. And there are a lot of pinches.
McDonagh routinely shakes down suspects for drugs. And if the suspects don’t have them, there’s always the property room at the precinct or the stash of his prostitute girlfriend, Frankie (Eva Mendes), whose johns McDonagh loves to mess with. And did I mention that he is a sports gambler who owes thousands to his bookie?

Bad Lieutenant, Port of Call: New Orleans has a problematic title as well. The promotional literature, and journalists seem to be falling in line with it, places the colon after the second word, but the title on screen plainly places it after the fifth, and separates the second and third words by vertical position instead of by punctuation. The provenance of the film is likewise problematic. It is nearly but not quite a remake of Abel Ferrara’s Bad Lieutenant of 1992, at the very least a relocation of it from the Big Apple to the Big Easy, perhaps simply a variation on a theme — all the same kinds of badness, drugs, gambling, prostitutes, a blind eye to crime under his nose — but hardly a viable franchise, a continuing series, even assuming there’s no shortage of bad lieutenants around the country. (Bad Lieutenant, Port of Call: Duluth.) If the film doesn’t match the hellish hyperbole of its namesake, that’s not at all …

Natasha: My one gripe with this movie: Eva Mendez in no way has the skin of a woman who has been sodomized and smoking crank all week.
Alex: Haha NO.
Natasha: Loveless anal sex and rock cocaine does not leave one’s skin rosy and honey colored. She needed some chest acne or some shit.
Alex: I think she is playing one of those Hollywood “High Class Escorts” whose only sign of the rough life they lead is a painted on black eye in one scene, and that eye is quickly avenged.
Natasha: Naturally!
Alex: And like the one time she is threatened with actually having to go through with what an actual prostitute does for a living it is a TERRIFYING prospect, that someone would do that to lovely Eva Mendes!
