Secretary






Blockbuster just shipped this out to me. I became a Maggie Gyllenhaal fan after watching Donnie Darko, so I’m trying to catch up on all of her movies.


Per Amazon:
Plot Summary

Genres: Drama, Comedy, Romance
Tagline: Assume the position.
Plot Outline A young woman, recently released from a mental hospital, gets a job as a secretary to a demanding lawyer, where their employer-employee relationship turns into a sexual, sadomasochistic one.
Plot Synopsis: Lee Holloway is a smart, quirky woman in her twenties who returns to her hometown in Florida after a brief stay in a mental hospital. In search of relief from herself and her oppressive childhood environment, she starts to date a nerdy friend from high school and takes a job as a secretary in a local law firm, soon developing an obsessive crush on her older boss, Mr. Grey. Through their increasingly bizarre relationship, Lee follows her deepest longings to the heights of masochism and finally to a place of self-affirmation.

I just watched it. What an odd quirky movie. Definitely not your typical romantic comedy. I thought the casting of Spader and Gyllenhaal was perfect.
