Amanda Dobbins: 我认为《上班女郎》不仅仅是一部浪漫喜剧,它更是一个时代的文化象征,反映了80年代的社会氛围和职场女性的形象。这部电影的配乐非常出色,尤其是主题曲在电影中多次出现,并以不同的形式呈现,这加深了我对80年代的理解,以及我对父母那一代人的理解。我对回归《可重看》节目感到非常兴奋,因为这部电影对我来说意义非凡。 Joanna Robinson: 我也很喜欢这部电影,我认为它是80年代电影的Top 5,它能代表80年代的时代特征。这些电影塑造了我们对职场女性形象的认知,以及我们对职业、平衡和家庭的期望。我很荣幸能参与《可重看》节目,因为你挑选的电影都很棒。 Bill Simmons: 我小时候看80年代的电影,感觉每部电影都发生在华尔街,每个人都在纽约从事贸易和金融。《上班女郎》反映了80年代“贪婪是好事”的时代精神,人们努力工作以获得金钱和地位。在80年代末,办公室和乘坐豪华轿车是人们追求的终极目标,这是一个零和游戏。
