9 to 5


(15)

In this hilarious farce, three of Hollywood's most talented female stars - Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, and Dolly Parton - live every secretary's dream as they turn the tables on their boss and turn their male controlled workplace into a model office.
At Consolidated, the office manager (Tomlin), the vice president's secretary (Parton) and the newest employee (Fonda) become great friends as they share their resentment about their egotistical, sexist boss (Dabney Coleman). When they inadvertently get a chance to take revenge, they institute a host of popular office procedures in his absence - even as their scheme spins wildly out of control.
Full of witty, social commentary, this delightful comedy marks Dolly Parton's first film debut and features the Oscar® nominated hit song she wrote and performed.

This is a great feelgood Movoe which, though the sets and clothes are dated, still holds a message for today's managers about how to treat your staff .But most of all, it is worth it for thinking back to every time you've ever had to deal with a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot!
