The Hudsucker Proxy
ComedyDramaFantasy111 min
When the founder of Hudsucker Industries leaps from a 44th-floor boardroom window, the company’s directors install naïve business-school grad Norville Barnes (Tim Robbins) as president, figuring he’ll drive the stock down long enough for them to seize control. It’s 1958, and Norville has just arrived in New York from Muncie, Indiana, with a head full of ambition and no idea he’s being used. Jennifer Jason Leigh’s Amy Archer, a sharp-tongued newspaper reporter, starts tracking his sudden rise, while Paul Newman’s Sidney J. Mussburger keeps the boardroom scheme moving. The film mixes skyscraper-era corporate satire, newsroom banter, and Norville’s unexpectedly big idea for a toy.
