Feminist March: 3/30/20

WORKING GIRLS (1986): College graduate Molly (Louise Smith), trying to bankroll her own business, works as a high-priced New York City escort. As a lesbian, she's able to keep her emotional distance from the clients, who range from cynically exploitative to desperately needy. But her open ambition to rise above her current station rubs many of her coworkers the wrong way, especially the combative, street-smart Dawn (Amanda Goodwin) and the escort service's disdainful madam, Lucy (Ellen McElduff). Directed by Lizzie Borden.
