Ever feel that you have no control over your life?
Or feel that events beyond your control from rising mortgage rates; gas prices to corporate downsizing could radically alter your lifestyle?
Well, this is the situation Bridget Cardigan faces when she learns that her husband Don has been downsized from his job and she is on the verge of losing her home and comfortable upper middle class lifestyle.
As a ten-year plus stay at home homemaker with a decade old English degree, Bridget must face the labor market with virtually no real job skills.
With no real job skills, Bridget accepts the only position she can find as a janitor at the Federal Reserve Bank.
This is the premise behind the new movie Mad Money in which Bridget played by Diane Keaton discovers that she has a lot more in common with her fellow employees including Liz played by Queen Latifah, a hard working single mom with two kids to raise and Jackie played by Katie Holmes an exuberant free spirit with nothing to lose.
Caught in a familiar middle class economic trap shared by countless women, these three women form a bond to tilt the system in their favor.
In a system that underestimates their talents and keeps their dreams just out of reach, these three women devise a plan to smuggle soon to be destroyed currency out of the Federal Reverse Bank.
Everything goes according to plan - until.
Sorry, no movie spoilers here, Mad Money open Friday January 18, 2008.
Diane Keaton - The Annie Hall Look
How could we comment on a movie staring Diane Keaton without paying homage to the impact her character Annie Hall, in the movie of the same name, had on the fashion world.
The Annie Hall look which consisted of layers of mannish clothes - shirts with ties, suit vests, hats, collared shirts - lots of deconstructed stuff - loose fitting - items from the flea market look became a popular fashion look in the late 70s.
Diane Keaton won the 1977 Academy Awards for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role for her character Annie Hall in the movie with the same name.
Annie Hall also won Academy Awards for the Best Director - Woody Allen, Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay categories. So as Annie Hall would say - La Di Dah, La Di Dah, Dah Dah.
Enjoy the clip from Diane Keaton new movie Mad Money.
