For Labor Day: "Let the River Run"

For Labor Day: "Let the River Run" September 5, 2011

From Mike Nichols’ “Working Girl.”

Ah, a flashback to the ’80s, complete with big hair, big shoulder pads, big Nikes to walk to work.  A great song (thank you, Ms. Carly Simon) from a great romantic comedy (and when was the last time someone in Hollywood made one of those, anyway?).

And, as an added bonus:  a poignant cameo appearance from the World Trade Center.

“Come, the New Jerusalem…” It was only 1988, but it seems like ancient history.
