    I saw the movie last night. I thought it was a good examination of life inside a creative department. Of course, the movie is not an unfiltered slice-o-life. This self-conscious posse certainly kept in mind at all times that the cameras were rolling. And then of course there's the magic of the editing. But I have to say, I've had bosses who've acted a lot like Wintour when evaluating work and making decisions. Those ended up being the bosses that in hind-sight I respect the most, and from whom I've learned the most.

    Hm, dilemma: My favorite British-born journalism goddess is once again clawing, meowing and hissing at my OTHER favorite British-born journalism goddess.

    Where o where do I place my loyalties? If forced at gun point, I'd probably decamp to Camp Tina. Though there's something to be said about Wintour's (mostly) dignified silence.

    Aside from that Letterman appearance, she's been as immovable as an ancient Greek statue while this sh*tstorm has been raging around her.

    I saw the movie Saturday. I would not want to work for anyone, male or female, who is as cold, hard, and incapable of giving positive feedback and encouragement as she is. Maybe her way "gets the job done," but plenty of people "get the job done" while still being warm, kind, and accessible.

    @bytememehard: I saw the movie too, and I didn't see anything really out of line. In fact, one of the main conflicts concerned the Brassai inspired spread that Grace Coddington was directing, and frankly, I agreed with Ms. Wintour's assessment of what needed to get cut, and what needed to be kept..

    @bytememehard: It's strange to me you came away with that impression; I was touched by that moment in the doc when Wintour ruefully admitted that her siblings (one is a political editor, the other two involved in NGOs) "don't think very much of what I do." I wouldn't go as far to call her warm and accessible--she's an upper-crust Brit, after all--but I do believe she uses her considerable powers for good more often than her detractors would care to admit.

    @snugbug: If you read my post, you'd see I am not talking about feeling sorry for her because she revealed a moment of personal pain in a movie, I'm talking about the cold manner in which she treats her employees. I did not say she was out of line, but not the kind of person I want to work for. Ive had bosses like her, and I've quit them -- I don't like the coldness. I respond better to a boss who can be enthusiastic, supportive, and encouraging.

    @adiam7: Aww, I understand that it's difficult to accept it, but you'll be better off in the end. Just like when you take the one straight drama kid to prom, and cry when he gets drunk and makes out with that young, male debate coach who is chaperoning.
