## Synopsis

Maid to Order is a 1987 American comedy film with fantasy film elements, co-written and directed by Amy Holden Jones. The movie stars Ally Sheedy as spoiled rich kid Jessie, who is made penniless when her fairy godmother casts a spell to erase her existence, forcing her to become a white live-in housekeeper for a new money, somewhat washed-up executive's family in the music industry, in a reversal of the Cinderella formula. Through the course of the film, Sheedy's character learns many lessons, such as the value of hard work, and the value of friendship.
