Plot: Writer/director Nancy Savoca, who wrote and directed Household Saints and True Love, handles the same duties in this tale of Grace Santos (Rosie Perez). The producer of a New York City local morning show targeted at women, Grace has an active professional life under the watch of her executive producer, Joan Marshall (Patti LuPone), that already intersects her personal life as she is married to co-host Eddie Diaz (Diego Serrano). When the other co-host, Margo (Karen Duffy), reveals Grace's pregnancy on- air, Joan seizes the opportunity to monitor Grace's development on the show. The ratings grow along with Grace, as the show pursues such topics as The ABC's of C-Sections and You & Your Epidural. While Grace takes comfort in her marriage and her new assistant Madeline (Marianne Jean-Baptiste), who has just returned from six years of raising her young children, Grace worries about the needs of her unborn child versus her much-loved career and Eddie's beckoning film career. Her fears realized through her daughter's first year, Grace must determine what it means to be a 24-Hour Woman. ~ Chris Gore, All Movie Guide

24 Hour Woman

A fabulous movie that I have watched again and again, and one that I enthusiastically recommend to all my friends! I laughed so hard so often and then was moved to tears at the same time.

It truly was like reliving my own experience as a new mother and "career woman." It is the only movie I have ever seen on this topic that is realistic!!! It is a movie that all new moms and dads should be REQUIRED to watch because it shows it like it is.

By the way, does Leonard Maltin have kids? If so, I bet he behaved just like the husband in this movie, and just didn't get it! I often say that in my next lifetime I'd like to come back as the husband so I can pat myself on the back for "helping.!

fun movie. Highly reccomended for a working woman family. Try and watch it with your loved one. Not worth 106 bucks, better to wait for the price to fall.

24 Hour Woman is the first film I have seen that has realistically and comically portrayed the life of working women. Rosie Perez and Marianne Jean Baptiste. I recommend it to anyone with a job and children.
