Title: A sick dark comedy.
Review: Secretary is a movie you will really like or really loathe. I am somewhere in the middle. The story of a girl who cuts herself and finds happiness in a sadomachism relationship with her pompous boss could turn most people off and I have to admit some of the scenes are pretty risque but Maggie Gyenhaal wins over the audience with her dark optimism and self-deprecting attitude. She falls in love with Edward played by James Spader, it's an unusual kind of love but it works for her, she is used to hurting herself and now she finds pleaure in Edward releasing that same pain on her. This movie is not for everyone but it is worth a viewing or two. Enjoy!
