Doris and Doreen

About This Movie

Doris and Doreen is this quirky little TV movie that somehow captures the mundane tension of office life with a comedic twist. The atmosphere is light but there's this underlying dread that builds as those pink forms start piling up. You really get a sense of the characters’ camaraderie and the performances are pretty genuine, especially the leads. It's not flashy, no big practical effects to wow you, but it’s the relatable themes and the pacing that keeps it engaging. You find yourself invested in their plight, wondering how far they'll go to protect their cushy jobs from the looming threat of corporate change.

This TV movie has had a somewhat spotty release history, primarily airing on television with limited home media distribution. It’s not the easiest film to track down, which adds to its charm for collectors. There’s definitely a niche interest in it, especially among those who appreciate the subtleties of 70s television, and its scarcity makes it a conversation piece among collectors who enjoy exploring the less mainstream offerings of the era.
