About this product

Product Information

Five Lesbian Brothers (Maureen Angelos, Babs Davy, Dominique Dibbell, Peg Healey, Lisa Kron) Comedy-horror / 5f (with doubling) Something's rotten in Big Bone! Pretty Patty Johnson is thrilled to join the secretarial pool at the Cooney Lumber Mill under the iron-fisted leadership of sultry office manager Susan Curtis. But she soon begins to feel that all is not right-the enforced diet of Slim-Fast shakes, the strange clicking language between the girls, the monthly disappearance of a lumberjack. By the time Patty discovers murder is part of these office killers' skill set, it's too late to turn back! In the guise of satiric exploitation-horror, The Secretaries takes an unflinching look at the warping cultural expectations of femininity. The Secretaries is a sustained, amusing look at the fine line between aggression and assertiveness. - The New Yorker The Five Lesbian Brothers render their satirical portraits with a deft but merciless eye. -L.A. Times 95 minutes of gritty, bawdy, bloody humor pregnant with incisive social commentary. -San Francisco Examiner A mordantly cheerful slice of Grand Guignol. -New York Times
