Working Girl
For anyone who's ever won. For anyone who's ever lost. And for everyone who's still in there trying.
Overview
When a secretary's idea is stolen by her boss, she takes a risky chance to reclaim it by impersonating him and running the project from his position.
Did I miss something here? I know that I am watching this film decades after it was made, but…. this is a classic? I am all for movies about strong women (although this works better as an underdog story), but this film was pretty cheesy and completely unrealistic. It also has a pretty crappy ending.
