What critics compared Working Girls to
There is nothing erotic about the film's explicit carnality (a laudable instinct that reminded me a great deal of Lizzie Borden's exceptional Working Girls), but neither is very much insight provided into the cool irony of the film's title: the ways in which frustrated people try and fail to connect with one another.
I thought once or twice about Lizzie Borden's amazing Working Girls, which takes place entirely in a brothel.
Compare this effort to the likes of Borden’s Working Girls, Donna Deitch’s Desert Hearts, or Cheryl Dunye’s The Watermelon Woman.
