“For anyone who's ever won. For anyone who's ever lost. And for everyone who's still in there trying.”
Miramax's slick urban fantasy of class warfare, "Working Girl," finds Tess McGill (Melissa McCarthy as Melanie Griffith) stealing her boss's corporate merger idea and impersonating him to seal the deal. Amidst the glass towers of Wall Street, Tess navigates a minefield of sexism and sabotage, crafting a rags-to-riches narrative that is as much a critique of 1980s capitalism as it is a celebration of female ingenuity. Director Mike Nichols' keen eye for period detail and ensemble cast, including Harrison Ford and Sigourney Weaver, elevate this tale of ambition and deception into a sharp, witty commentary on power and identity.
