Sounds like 9 to 5 rewritten to be for men, at least the premise as given at IMDb makes it sound that way.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I ahd the impression it was a mash-up of 9 to 5 and Strangers on a Train.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
From AV Club:
Following up on the Coen Brothers’ hints that their next film would have “quite a bit of music in it,” the L.A. Times is reporting that the duo is working on a script set in the 1960s Greenwich Village folk scene, which had quite a bit of music in it, indeed. Specifically they’re said to be drawing from The Mayor Of MacDougal Street, the posthumously published memoir of Greenwich resident guitarist and guru Dave Van Ronk, who befriended and guided artists like Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, and Phil Ochs to greater fame and fortune than he would ever experience.

For those of you intending to skip Cars 2, and looking forward to the next Pixar offering, perhaps you've been thinking, "Hey, when are they going to get around to a lead female character..."

Compassionately intolerant
Pixar has obviously been abducting me and extracting my fondest desires straight out of my brain.
I'll be first in line for Brave. For sure.

Oooh, that gave me chills! I haven't wanted to see an animated movie in a long time, but that looks awesome!

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen
The three leads all play off each other really well, and the screwball/farce elements are occasionally brilliant, but...wow, that was a lot of rape jokes.
That's too bad. I was kind of looking forward to it.

move out and draw fire
Wait just a dang minute here.
Brave appears to feature not only a female main character, but one who is to all appearances a HUMAN.
It's like I don't even know Pixar anymore.
