CINDERELLA

Today's NYTimes Best 1176 Film was Mike Nichol's

Working Girl (1988)

with Melanie Griffith, Harrison Ford.

No question who the prince and princess are. The wicked stepmother is Sigourney Weaver.

Updated to a merger and acquisitions department of a large Wall Street firm, it is a nice story with good acting and a nice clip along directorial style.

The support here is important. Alec Baldwin, Joan Cusack, Philip Bosco, Olympia Dukakis.

I didn't want to like it but I did. A lot of the enjoyment of it is not knowing/remembering how it turns out. I will give it a 3 out of Netflix5.
