It's about improbable events happening to people who are comic caricatures of their types, and, like those '40s movies, It also has a dash of social commentary. The movie exists in the tradition of 1940s screwball comedies. "Nine to Five" itself is pleasant entertainment, and I liked it, despite its uneven qualities and a plot that's almost too preposterous for the material. She exists on another plane, as Monroe did: She is a center of life on the screen.īut excuse me for a moment while I regain my composure. Indeed, she hardly seems to exist as a sexual being in this movie.
Because there have been so many Dolly Parton jokes (and doubtless will be so many more), I had better say that I'm not referring to her sex appeal or chest measurements. And she contains so much energy, so much life and unstudied natural exuberance that watching her do anything in this movie is a pleasure. It has some very funny moments, and then it has some major ingredients that don't work, including some of its fantasy sequences. "Nine to Five" is only a fairly successful comedy.
