I Don't Know How She Does It

I Don't Know How She Does It (2011) is an American comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Douglas McGrath and adapted from Allison Pearson's bestselling novel. Sarah Jessica Parker leads alongside Pierce Brosnan and Greg Kinnear.

Kate Reddy is a Boston fund manager, a wife, and a mother of two who runs on four hours of sleep and cold coffee. A new high-stakes account pulls her to New York repeatedly, where her charming collaborator Jack Abelhammer complicates the picture. Her husband Richard is patient — for now. The kids need her. The client needs her more.

The film builds its rhythm through a mock-documentary device: friends, colleagues, and bystanders speak directly to camera about Kate's life, giving the story a dry commentary track that cuts through the usual rom-com gloss. It won't reinvent the genre, but Parker's timing and the supporting cast — including Kelsey Grammer and Olivia Munn — keep it moving. Stream I Don't Know How She Does It online on iFILM.
