Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Walter Hill
Starring: John Candy, Richard Pryor, Stephen Collins, Lonette McKee
Genres: Comedy
Brewster almost doesn't get the money because one guy took $20,000 and didn't tell Brewster. But the girl who was in charge of Brewster's receipts finds out minutes before midnight and rushes in and tells him. Brewster realises what tricks the other guy pulled and plans to sue him, but first he only has about two or three minutes to spend twenty grand, so he hires the girl on the spot to be his personal attorney so he can sue the other guy, and he gives her the three grand and she writes him a receipt. So he ends up spending all the money and inheriting the 300 million. The executor of his uncle's estate plans to sue the law firm for conspiring against Brewster.
