在这部快乐主妇剧情/喜剧/爱情片中,范•侯登这次扮演了一位生活条件优越的家庭主妇，生活一切很美好，直到生了一个儿子，于是这个可怜的女人开始和自杀的父亲的阴影做起了思想斗争，结果就和片名一样，这个女人依然战胜了自我成为了一位快乐主妇。
影片的整体氛围轻松愉快，在夫妻生活的处理尽显喜剧和浪漫的本色，让你轻轻松松的看一个女人如何放荡，如何精神失常，如何纠结于过往，如何战胜自我，重新过回影片开始时的浪荡生活。
Lea is an immaculate 30-something wife whose husband's job in real estate allows her an enviably glossy lifestyle. The word 'emancipation' simply isn't in her vocabulary and as long as the money rolls in, all is rosy. So, when Harry Jr. arrives, she is a little traumatized at having to swap canapés for nappies. The result is a brave but hilarious story about a woman who fights to get her past - and her present - firmly back on track.
