Director: Colin Higgins Cast: Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton, Dabney Coleman, Sterling Hayden, Henry Jones, Lawrence Pressman, Elizabeth Wilson, Edward Marshall, Marian Mercer, Ren Woods, Norma Donaldson, Roxanna Bonilla-Giannini, Peggy Pope, Richard Stahl
The popular title song is not the only good thing about this movie. Comedy reigns in this story about the lack of fairness in the workplace when secretaries–Judy Bernly (Jane Fonda), Violet Newstead (Lily Tomlin), and Doralee Rhodes (Dolly Parton)–kidnap their lecherous boss Franklin Hart, Jr. (Dabney Coleman). They keep Franklin prisoner in his own home, run the department without him, and make changes that lead to greater production. But, how long can they keep Hart captive?
