Review of Working Girl

Working Girl (1988)
7/10
"Working Girl" still works.
3 February 2002
"Working Girl" sticks Griffith in the title role as a soft-spoken, self-doubting but determined secretary trying to keep her principles in tact while determined to get ahead in both romance and finance. Director Nichols crafts a charming and sweetly sentimental Yuppie-era girl-makes-good tale with good old school Hollywood style in this much lauded film which is a break-through for Griffith with early peeks at Kevin Spacy, Oliver Platt, and Ricki Lake and a poignant look at the Manhattan skyline behind rolling credits. A fun blast from the past on the broadcast circuit.
