Publisher's Synopsis
Whoopi Goldberg and Dianne Wiest star in this US comedy directed by Donald Petrie. Financial analyst Laurel Ayres (Goldberg) leaves her company after her white, less-talented colleague Frank (Timothy Daly) is promoted in her place. Attempting to set up her own partnership, she finds that clients are unwilling to sign with her, either because of her sex or her skin colour. Determined to make her partnership a success, she invents a male partner named Robert S. Cutty, and business soon begins to pick up. However, when Cutty is then accused of illegal business practices, Laurel is forced into impersonating him herself.
