In-Branch Movie - "Working Girl"

Matinee Rated: R

When secretary Tess McGill's idea is stolen by her boss, she seizes an opportunity to steal it back by pretending she has her boss' job.

Movie Summary: "Unhappy with her job and her loser boyfriend, Tess McGill (Melanie Griffith) takes a secretarial post at a major Wall Street firm. Her boss is Katharine Parker (Sigourney Weaver), an outwardly affable yuppie whose grinning visage hides a wicked and larcenous propensity for exploiting the ideas of her employees. While Parker is incapacitated, McGill is compelled by circumstances to pose as her boss. Her inborn business acumen and common sense enable McGill to rise to the top of New York's financial circles, and along the way she wins the love of an executive (Harrison Ford). Things threaten to take a sorry turn when Parker returns, but it is she who suffers from the consequences of her own past duplicity." ~ Provided by the library catalog.
