MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, November 16, 2010 (Press-News.org) We get invited to many film screenings - some relevant to Womenworking.com, others not so much - but Morning Glory is a movie that epitomizes todayâEUR s working woman trying to manage a challenging career.
Rachel McAdams plays Jersey girl Becky Fuller, who has been let go from her producer job at a local station. Becky eventually gets her big break when New YorkâEUR s 4th ranked morning show "Day Break" hires her. She makes a quick jump over to NYC, and soon we see her rushing unrealistically to work wearing Christian Louboutin pumps.
Hard-working Becky reunites with Family Stone co-star Diane Keaton who gives her an icy welcome: "You will fail like everyone else," she says, referring to the 14 producers before her. During the first morning meeting, it looks like BeckyâEUR s about to choke, but she makes a verbal comeback, firing the male anchor for bringing morale down. Now we know she isn't just any ordinary producer, and Becky earns instant respect from the staff.
Jeff Goldblum plays a great boss and gives Becky the impossible: "Whatever it takes, just get the ratings up". So Becky negotiates her way through the nitty gritty of a backstage studio, charming us with her adorably clumsy ways, and eventually landing the affections of Yale-educated boy upstairs Patrick Wilson. She even predictably topples Harrison Ford's tough news-focused character, who refuses to say the word "fluffy" on-air.
When the show is under threat of being canceled, Becky makes drastic changes, which comicly lead to Diane Keaton's character rapping with 50 Cent; meanwhile weatherman Ernie takes the grunt of the youth spectacle with one segment getting over 80,000 hits on YouTube.
ThereâEUR s too much of Becky running around NYC in heels, and the post-coital walk across the bridge is all very Devil Wears Prada-esque, but Morning Glory, which opens nationwide tomorrow, is pure entertainment that left me feeling totally inspired. I thought about it during my entire run, er, walk home in flats.
