The Canon Episode 61: WORKING GIRL

Devin and Amy take on the gender battles of the 80s.

By Jan. 25, 2016

This week's episode of The Canon tackles a movie that some might argue is underappreciated: Mike Nichols' Working Girl, which sees Melanie Griffith as a low class Staten Island girl trying to make it big in the world of business while also romancing Harrison Ford. It's a really 80s movie, with all the fashion and sexual harrassment that entails.

Amy is very much pro-Working Girl. I find myself a little less moved. Is it because I'm a misogynist? You know that Amy will make that argument!
