What I love about Struges' films, this one in particular at least, is his ability to examine the components that make up the simple plot to make it more of a {funny} critique of the impact of money. While you do know what's going to happen, that's not the point Struges is making. It's the impact of money and how it influences the treatment you receive and vice versa; all in Struges' fantastic dialogue, of course.

What would normally be a simple subplot for a regular movie, becomes the entire plot of this one. You already know how it's going to end from the very beginning, it's just a matter of waiting out the film. At least it wasn't 2 hours.
