Here's a 1980 ad for two comedies; Neil Simon's Seems like Old Times and 9 to 5.
The first movie on the left is Seems like Old Times which starred Chevy Chase, Goldie Hawn, Charles Grodin and Robert Guillaume. Chase plays Hawn's writer ex-husband who is kidnapped and forced to rob a bank. He seeks the help of Hawn who is a public defender and the current wife of an attorney. Hijinks and hilarity ensue. It is actually a pretty funny movie featuring classic Chevy Chase one liners.
On the right is 9 to 5 starring Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda and Dabney Coleman. I think everyone knows what this movie is about by now. Coleman plays the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot boss and Jane, Lily and Dolly his underlings. They hatch a scheme to trap Coleman in his house and take over the company. When they do, productivity and sales soar. But how long can they keep it up?
