Amazon.com essential video:
Melanie Griffith had a fling with stardom in this Mike Nichols comedy about an executive secretary (Griffith) who can't get her deserved shot at upward mobility in the brokerage industry. Hardly taken seriously by male bosses, things aren't really any better for her once she starts working for a female exec (Sigourney Weaver, never more delightful), a narcissist with a boy-toy banker (Harrison Ford) and a tendency to steal the best ideas from her underlings. When Weaver's character is laid up with a broken leg, Griffith poses as a replacement wheeler-dealer, flirting with Ford and working on a new client who doesn't suspect the deception. Nichols brings a lot of snap and sass to Kevin Wade's smart script about chafing against class restrictions and perceptions. Sundry scenes are played quite charmingly, especially those of Griffith and Ford's mutual pickup in a bar and Joan Cusack's championing of Griffith's crusade. Nominated for Best Picture, Director, Actress (Griffith), and two Supporting Actress awards (Weaver, Cusack); Carly Simon's song "Let the River Run" won the Oscar. --Tom Keogh

- Good 80's movie
Very enjoyable movie. Harrison Ford and Melanie Griffith actually have good on screen chemistry. Very good supporting cast.

- Working Hard at Working Girl
Working Girl is a good movie, full of fun and surprises. Harrison Ford is good to watch in anything, really. Melanie Griffith has the most annoying voice, but clearly they are aware of this. Sigourney Weaver plays a scheming, conniving manager with an unbelievable ego. But the combination of assistance in different places and the connection between Harrison Ford and Melanie Griffith is what makes her successful and makes the movie entertaining.

- Ride Through the 80's With Working Girl
The bold colored clothes, the high hair, and corporate excess treated in the film Working Girl captured the 1980's feel for the many commuters that labored into Manhattan every morning. The borough of Staten Island is the perfect backdrop for a working girl Tess (Melanie Griffith) trying hard to prove her worth in the Manhattan maze of office politics. Scenes of the Staten Island Ferry transporting Tess and thousands of other NYC workers creates a feeling that Tess is trapped by the commuter lifestyle ... Read More

- Simply the BEST & nothing else measures up....fond memories =)
This movie simply is the best. It's very relatable and so much FUN 2 watch after all these years. I was born around the time this movie came out and this movie has so much more impact on me now then it did when i was a little kid. I totally relate to Tess but I'm just a male version and i know what its like to experience "The Glass Ceiling" effect at work. This film will have you screaming for the under dog all the way =) Simply the best and the Devil Wears Prada just doesn't compare.

- Still Charming and Great Fun...
It's a sad fact of life that many beloved films don't age well; what seemed funny in the 80s can seem trite and contrived two decades later. Mike Nichols' "Working Girl", thankfully, is NOT in that category...it is as bright, witty, and endearing today as it was when 'big hair' was in fashion, and the World Trade Center was the pinnacle of the New York City skyline.

The continuing appeal is due, in no small part, to the exceptional cast. Melanie Griffith, whose acting skills had been buried ... Read More
