The ladies in the typing pool have always believed in recycling. The footage for “I Want to Be a Secretary” has been reclaimed and reworked from a selection of all-but-forgotten post-war recruitment films encouraging the modern girl to pursue a secretarial career. What other path is open to an independent-minded young lady after all? What are the secrets of the boardroom? And what is the meaning of the firm-but-fair Miss Ingall’s mysterious smile? Our plucky young career gal heroine is about to find out. I Want To Be A Secretary: A career girl’s adventure in the typing pool.
