An interesting look at one young woman's foray into the sexual revolution at the heels of the revolutionary herself, Helen Gurley Brown. We are privy to what the woman behind the office door was like as well as the fearless, smart and ready to kick some publishing butt woman we know. What the world didn't realize is that when the door closed after meetings or when the office was quiet, this courageous woman was often reduced to crying spells and long phone calls to her husband for support. Only her secretary and husband really knew how badly she needed to turn around Cosmopolitan and strike a blow for working women everywhere. This is not just a great historical look at a formidable woman executive at a time where there weren't many to be found, but also a look at the changing times and ways that Helen Gurley Brown influenced a generation of young women.
