Working Girl

"Working Girl" is a wonderful film and it achieves an admirable level of entertainment value. The romance truly works and the comedy is genuinely funny and it should come as no surprise to anyone it did incredibly healthy business at the global box office. One of the most memorable elements of this film is the unflinching way the character of Tess McGill has been deliberately used to make some valid and important comments about big business and how particular individuals might be perceived in relation to the way they dress or look or act. The so called elite in any walk of life will always look down on and summarily dismiss certain people regardless of their abilities or the contributions they might make in much the same way as some men look down on and belittle women. Anyway, it is refreshing to watch a film which tells us this doesn't necessarily have to be the case and no one should have to silently tolerate it either professionally or domestically.
