A Working Girl is a movie produced in 1988. It is a story of working-class women who were deeply involved in direct politics against each other. Since the movie was released in the 1980s, there are many scenes that present old-fashioned stereotypes. The movie’s basic theme was to show that women are successful and smarter than any man in the professional world of business. The company associated with and shown in the movie was based on fashion, and the time was highly revolutionary with respect to the implementation of new ideas in the fashion industry. The main aim of the paper is to discuss the movie, “Working Girl,” its overall composition, critical analysis, and detail about the issues as well as the concepts that are being observed after watching the movie.
The movie has some things which are outdated because its release has been passed more than 20 years. The dress of women is neither attractive at the current time nor is the implementation of the basic principles of dressing suited to women. It could be the thinking of the current world, but the fashion of the 1980s was highly appreciated at its time. On the first day of Tess at her office, Sigourney Weaver explained to her some basic important rules of office dressing, which were that if the woman dressed in a perfect manner, people would notice the woman, and if she wore something shabbily, they would definitely observe the dress with critical eyes.
From a business perspective, Tess gets some tips that are known and very famous. The teasing sentence that she would never be able to know from where the big ideas would probably come. She didn’t go to the business schools, but she had a proud belief in her about the knowledge that it can come from anywhere, and she learned the best. The knowledge of the tricks of success is not always in the expensive schools, but it can be anywhere and can be approached anytime. The most important lessons from the movie about the work include a number of tips related to dressing, hairstyles, and even ways of dealing with things. There is a famous quote about hair that if the job is in the law agency or legal affairs, then the hair could be wearing a serious hairstyle, but if a dream is to be Lady Gaga’s stylist or fashion designer, then the pouf must be maintained.
In the movie, a lesson that could be critically extracted which shows good relevance to today’s work culture is that the head should be considered for the business as it is related to making strategies and processes of thinking while the body for the sin as for appealing and repeating the lies to everyone that I don’t know anything about you, but I heard good about you so, please be always good. There was also a point raised by Moore, which explains that the sons and daughters of immigrants dream of becoming millionaires as they strive hard to achieve their goals.
The main points in the paper discussed could be concluded that Tess didn’t belong to the firm, and she tried to steal the idea because she wanted to make a good impression quickly. She considered it the fastest way to become a capitalist and to get another capitalist to accept herself. The movie was made based on the current situation of the country and related to the fairytale of Cinderella. Tess is the Cinderella of her dreams, and she has been thinking of becoming a hard-working, romantic heroine.
