Who here saw the
1980s classic “
The Money Pit”
Tom Hanks &
Shelly Long
Attorney Walter Fielding (Tom Hanks) and his classical musician girlfriend,
Anna Crowley (
Shelley Long), learn of Walter Sr.'s wedding to a beautiful young woman named
Florinda (
Tetchie Agbayani) in
Rio de Janeiro shortly after fleeing the country for embezzling millions of dollars from their musician clients. The next morning, they are told they need to vacate the apartment they are subletting from Anna's ex-husband,
Max Beissart (
Alexander Godunov), a self-absorbed conductor who has returned early from
Europe.

Through an unscrupulous realtor friend, Walter learns about a million dollar distress sale mansion on the market for a mere $
200,
000. He and Anna meet the owner,
Estelle (
Maureen Stapleton), who claims she must sell it quickly because her husband,
Carlos (
John van Dreelen), has been arrested by the
Israelis, having been accused of being
Adolf Hitler's pool man. Her sob story and insistence at keeping the place in candlelight in order to save money "for the goddamn, bloodsucking lawyers", distracts Walter and enchants Anna, who finds it romantic. They decide to buy it, but Anna insists on putting up half of the money needed for the repairs. She turns to Max for her half by selling him back what she got in their divorce. Walter gets his half from his wealthiest client.
From the moment Walter and Anna take possession of the house, it quickly begins to fall apart. Amongst other problems, the entire front door frame rips out of the wall, the main staircase collapses, the plumbing is full of gunk, the electrical system catches fire, the bathtub crashes through the floor, the chimney collapses, and a raccoon is living in the dumbwaiter.
Contractors Art (
Joe Mantegna) and
Brad Shirk (
Carmine Caridi) are called in (the only construction company who is willing to take on the work), who summarily tear the house to pieces using
Walter's $5,000 down payment, leaving him and Anna embroiled in bureaucracy to secure the necessary building permits to complete the work. His continuing frustration at the escalating costs of restoring the house leads him to brand it a "money pit", whilst the Shirks continue to assure him that the work will take "two weeks".
The repair work continues for a grueling four months and Walter and Anna realize they need more money to complete the renovations
For those Foreclosure seekers this is a must see.
