Movie: What Women Want (2000)
“Nick, a somewhat chauvinistic advertising exec hot shot, has his life turned haywire when a fluke accident enables him to hear what women think. At first all he wants to do is rid himself of this curse, until a wacky psychologist shows him that this could be used to his advantage! His first target is Darcy McGuire, the very woman that got the promotion he wanted. But just as his plan is beginning to work, love gets in the way… Written by Filmtwob {webmaster@filmfreak.co.za}”

Trivia: When Nick Marshall asks his assistants, Eve and Margo, if they know anything about Erin the file girl, Margo refers to her as “Mrs. Lonelyheart”. This is an homage to the suicidal character in ‘Alfred Hitchcock’s film Rear Window (1954), made in 1954.
Goofs: Revealing mistakes: When Nick returns to his office having failed to get the Creative Director promotion, his secretary begins to shake up a bottle of champagne. There is obviously no cork, you see liquid spill out through her fingers before the champagne cork ‘pop’ sounds and she allows the rest of the champagne to escape.
