How to succeed in business farce features great cast
“The Secret of My Success” follows the journey of Brantley Foster (Michael J. Fox) from doing chores on his parents’ Kansas farm to his exploits in the big city. With a newly minted business degree and a good job lined up at a New York City firm, he bids farewell to his parents and sets off to make his fortune.<br /><br />He soon discovers that his promised job has been eliminated by a corporate takeover. Seeking other employment, he’s told repeatedly that because he lacks relevant experience, no one will hire him. Desperate, he calls on a distant uncle, Howard Prescott (Richard Jordan), head of a multinational conglomerate. Prescott does give him a job — in the mail room. Brantley has loftier goals. He starts reading interoffice memos and recognizes opportunities because of bureaucratic disorganization. He moves into an empty office, wangles a secretary, and begins to make executive decisions, all under the name “Carlton Whitfield.”<br /><br />The subterfuge requires Brantley to do two jobs simultaneously, as mail room worker and as Whitfield the executive. This requires frequent changes of clothes to duck his mail room supervisor and his uncle while trying to get to know the only female executive at the firm, attractive Christy Wills (Helen Slater). Things get even more complicated when Prescott’s wife, Vera (Margaret Whitton), decides Brantley would be a nice boy toy while, reminiscent of “The Apartment,” Prescott carries on an affair with Christy.<br /><br />With a nod to “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,” “The Secret  of My Success” treats its protagonist as a charming, if conniving, opportunist, but adds that the opportunist does the work to learn about the company and make his value known. The farcical elements of the film threaten to derail Brantley’s hopes when his business and personal lives come crashing together in often comically harrowing ways. Through it all, he keeps trying to interest the aloof Christy.<br /><br />Fox is a perfect fit for the role of Brantley. Energetic, clever, and fast- thinking, Brantley is easily one of the smartest people at the firm, but he must prove himself. His methods are not exactly those of traditional advancement, and that makes him a kind of a hero. He doesn’t play by the rules and succeeds … sort of.<br /><br />If ever there was a scene stealer, it’s Margaret Whitton as the frustrated corporate wife. On a day when Vera is feeling especially vulnerable, Brantley is assigned to drive her home. Seeing that she’s upset, he compliments her on her beauty, which acts like a balm and gives her a badly needed infusion of self-confidence. She becomes sexually aggressive with Brantley, who’s hardly immune to her charms. Flaunting her body like a fine-tuned Rolls-Royce, Vera manages to put Brantley in all sorts of compromising situations, the most amusing in her mansion’s swimming pool, to the theme from “Jaws.”<br /><br />The script makes observations about the world of big business that still resonate. Christy, a competent employee, is nonetheless harassed by her boss and pressured into doing things she knows are not ethical. This plot point underscores a pervasive problem that has come more to the forefront in recent years.<br /><br />Director Herbert Ross (“Steel Magnolias,” “Footloose”) keeps the tone light and concentrates on the comic ramifications of the relationships. A sequence late in the film is pure farce. The company’s key executives, and Brantley (as his alias Carlton Whitfield), are assembled for the weekend at Prescott’s massive Connecticut home. As various characters pursue trysts by night, they slip from their rooms into other rooms, slinking about, evading one another in the darkened hallways, and winding up with strange bedfellows. Edited with precision, these scenes form one of the funniest sequences in the movie.<br /><br />“The Secret of My Success” is an old-fashioned comedy/boudoir farce in the spirit of 1930’s screwball comedies. It’s not hard to imagine Jimmy Stewart as Brantley, Katharine Hepburn as Chisty, Ralph Bellamy as Prescott, and Jean Harlow as Vera. Director Ross and the actors convey a lighthearted spirit. We know that things will work out, but there are obstacles to overcome along the way — mostly comic — which makes for a pleasant romp.<br /><br />Bonus materials on the Blu-ray release include an audio commentary, interview with co-star Helen Slater, and several theatrical trailers.

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : Can a kid from Kansas come to New York to conquer the business world and maneuver his way from the mailroom to the boardroom in a matter of weeks? Michael J. Fox (Back to the Future, The Hard Way) proves it can be done in this very funny lampoon of corporate business life directed by Hollywood veteran Herbert Ross (The Goodbye Girl, Footloose). Fresh out of college, Brantley (Fox) is determined to climb New York’s corporate ladder in record time by masquerading as an up-and-coming executive, even though he’s really the new mail boy. However, his plans begin to go awry when the boss’s wife (Margaret Whitton, Major League) falls in love with him and he falls in love with a junior executive (Helen Slater, Supergirl), who also happens to be the boss’s (Richard Jordan, The Yakuza) mistress. The wonderful cast also includes John Pankow (To Live and Die in L.A.), Christopher Murney (The Last Dragon), Fred Gwynne (My Cousin Vinny) and Mercedes Ruehl (Married to the Mob).Special Features:-NEW Audio Commentary by Entertainment Journalist and Author Bryan Reesman -NEW Interview with Co-Star Helen Slater -Theatrical Trailer -Dual-Layered BD50 Disc -Optional English Subtitles.
