    In many stories the protagonist has a change of heart for the better. They usually have some sort of an epiphany where they suddenly realize their actions and fix them. In this case Tess is almost the opposite. She is okay with the drawing of the Lottery then says how unfair it is when her family is at stake. She does not do this calmly either. Tess let everyone know what she is thinking and feeling. People want to say things but can’t for it is tradition. Jackson even gives Tess’s children a few pebbles to throw at her to show how barbaric our nature can be.…

    Even the contradictions in and about the film showcase the many struggles employed women dealt with. The two different types of feminists, the woman that depends on her intelligence to carry her to the top and the other that relies on her feminine charm and status, while acting masculine to blend into the corporate normality of the 1980s. As well as the issue that woman felt pressured to remain a house wife or that an important goal was to get married, by the love plot, this problem is still being struggled with today. The love plot tried to explain that woman can be both a kind hearted wife and a businesswoman, but it took away from the powerful feminist theme. The incongruity of the film being written and directed by men took away from the strong female presence and unlimited capabilities and created the situation to close to the reality in the 1980s. Men believed they were being over generous by allowing women to work even if it was for about half of the money they were earning. Tess McGill being created by Kevin Wade without an inspiration, made it seem that only made up character could accomplish the feats that she did. The film “Working Girl” gave an inspirational outlook to women in the workplace and gave many young women hope despite for the sexist undertones. Viewing the issues that women in the 1980s struggled…

Determination defines Scarlett and drives her to achieve everything she desires by any means necessary.
