I don't know how she does it: Her pinstripes are wider than his

Chuckling as Sarah Jessica Parker juggles husband, kids and high-powered job in I Don't Know How She Does It -- a movie that has a smile rather than the teeth of its source material -- I thought fondly of prior Hollywood movies where Her pinstripes are wider than His. Katharine Hepburn in Woman of the Year. Rosalind Russell in His Girl Friday. Ginger Rogers in Lady in the Dark. Judy Holliday in The Solid Gold Cadillac. Diane Baker in The Best of Everything. Diane Keaton in Baby Boom. Melanie Griffith in Working Girl. Sanaa Lathan in Something New. One could chart the modern history of women in the workplace through these films.
