If you ever dreamed it...

Marisa Ventura is a single Latina mother living in the Bronx who raises her son Ty on a modest salary. Every day she takes the train to Manhattan to work as a housekeeper at the Beresford, a luxury hotel in the city. She dreams of a better life for the two of them and gives her all to everything she does. Ty spends his afternoons with his mother's coworkers, who are convinced Marisa could be promoted to a management position at the hotel. The film is directed by Wayne Wang and stars Jennifer Lopez as a hardworking, determined woman with a clear ambition and plenty of obstacles in her way.

Trivia about Maid in Manhattan

On its first day of filming in the Bronx, paparazzi and onlookers forced the shoot to stop, and police had to be called to control the chaos.
The film opened at number one at the U.S. box office with $18.7 million, beating Star Trek: Nemesis by less than $200,000.
Jennifer Lopez was nominated twice for the Razzie Award for Worst Actress that same year, for this role and for Enough, released a few months earlier.
The story originated from a script titled "The Chambermaid"; Jennifer Lopez and producer Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas approached Wayne Wang to develop Marisa Ventura as a woman from the Bronx.
