Career Girls

...Career Girls is a masterly observation of the foibles of the human condition, rendered with an incisive bite and delivered with boisterous wit.

Distinctive speech styles can be an affectation, or they can be a gift from the actor: Career Girls is like a workshop on conversational self-defense.

...a soft, strong, but not very long mini-gem that's intimate, loveable and perfectly observed.

Like all of Leigh's films it's all talk and not much action, but when talk is as heartfelt and clever as this, that's hardly a drawback.
