Working Girl (1988)
7/10
Feel good movie will lift you

Warning: Spoilers
Melanie Griffith, Harrison Ford and Sigourney Weaver give good performances and play off each other well in this New York fairy tale about a young secretary's climb to the top.

Mike Nichol's direction is again superb as he uses both plot and players very well - great script by Kevin Wade. He mixes drama and comedy beautifully while creating a tempo that gives the film a perfect momentum from beginning to end. Supporting cast, including Joan Cusack and Alec Baldwin, are great too. Oliver Platt, Kevin Spacey and Olympia Dukakis also appear. Top it all off with Carly Simon's fantastic score, and you have a very enjoyable 'feel good' movie.
