@@carloscontreras4125 What a great take! Now I'm thinking of "Working Girl" as the light-hearted, happy-ending version of "Vertigo," one of my very favorite movies. It also makes me consider "Mulholland Drive," in that there is a wishful reinvention going on, but in "Working Girl" the dream comes true for Melanie Griffith's Tess McGill, whereas in "Mulholland Drive" Naomi Watts wakes up as Diane Selwyn to a full-on nightmare.
This is a movie.. not a training video on "what not to do in a meeting".. She knew she was out of her league but she decided to take Katherine's advice in the hope of getting HER idea taken seriously and not used by Katherine for her own gain.
@@creativewriter3887 So it is. But one can learn couple of things from it. I've seen many female bosses like Katharine in real life. They didn't steal ideas (prob. because they didn't get a chance) but they did wrap an insecure assistant/secretary around their little finger and exploited her. Mainly delegating work that had nothing to do with hers work description plus each and every boring routine task they should have been doing themselves. However, nobody had to serve dim sum at cocktail gathering because the boss didn't have an expense account.
That standing up to get the coffee- that ladies and gentlemen is why this movie is soooooo good.
She has such a sweetness to her, love Melanie Griffith!
Melanie Griffith wears that grey-green suit with her hair swept up almost as if to honor her mother Tippi Hendren in "The Birds."
Funny, it reminds me more of Kim Novak in Vertigo, where the character also pretends to be someone she’s not.

Exactly like.
Love this film
…or not😂 It cuts off at her saying “or not”
🙄 Don't say "i lost my briefcase". You only draw attention to it. And don't yap away nervously.
