Flick of the Day

Film: WORKING GIRL

Director: Mike Nichols

Actors: Melanie Griffith, Sigourney Weaver, Harrison Ford, Joan Cusack, Alec Baldwin, Philip Bosco, Kevin Spacey, Oliver Platt, Olympia Dukakis, Nora Dunn, Ricki Lake

Year: 1988

Synopsis: A Staten Island girl tries to make her way in corporate America.

I've long thought Melanie Griffith was more fluff that stuff, but she proved me wrong in the performance of her career; as Tess McGill in 1988's "Working Girl". Although she showed her typical shy demeanor, it worked and she brought along real depth. Together with pros Sigourney Weaver, Harrison Ford, and a hilarious (and big-haired) Joan Cusack, Griffith made this well-written story a must-see. So... see it!
