"Secretary" was a movie that I was anticipating for months and months and tonight I finally got the chance to see it. And I was not disapointed at all. This movie is everything; funny, sad, hilarious, emotional, sexy, and goofy. The film stars Maggie Gyllenhaal as Lee, a woman who just got out of an institute for being a self-mutilator. We can see that Lee has many insecurity and self-concious issues right from the beginning. She comes back home and finds that there is a job oppertunity for a secretary and she does everything in her power to get this job. She does and her boss is very strange. To make it shorter, they end up in an S&M relationship.
This film is not explicitly sexual, but rather gives and understanding and sympathy to it's characters. Gyllenhaal is amazing in this role, I would love to see her win some kind of award for her performance. I can't even describe how great she was in this film. James Spader who plays Lee's boss is great as well. I can't say enough great things about this film. All i can say is that everyone should see this film. *****/out of 5
