The Best of Everything is a juicy soap opera that takes place in the business world of the late Eisenhower era, following the lives of three spunky secretaries and their romantic misadventures.

The film features an all-star cast, including Hope Lange, Diane Baker, Suzy Parker, and Joan Crawford, who shines as a senior magazine editor with a caustic wit and sharp tongue.

Despite the trashy and plodding material, director Jean Negulesco's stylish direction and the film's cool colors and postwar furniture make it a nostalgic and engaging watch.

With its focus on the lives of working women in the 1950s, The Best of Everything is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of gender roles and workplace dynamics.
