Secretary
Lee Holloway (Gyllenhaal) has a few strikes against her when she applies for a secretarial position
at the law office of E. Edward Grey (Spader). First, she was released only recently from a mental
institution; second, after only one day back with her dysfunctional suburban family, she has already
succumbed to her secret, self-destructive habit. Although she's never had a job in her life, Lee
is hired by the mysterious lawyer, Mr. Grey. At first the work seems quite normal but soon, in
between typing, filing and coffee-making, Lee and Mr. Grey embark on a more personal relationship
altogether, crossing lines of conduct that would give any human resource director the vapors.
