Their chance to reconcile comes when they walk across the city pushing a piano they were able to snag for free. A poignant black comedy with considerable warmth taking into account its hard-luck characters. [More]

Reviews for Money Buys Happiness
There are glimmers of good filmmaking in Money Buys Happiness, but the main characters are generally unlikeable.
All in all, Money Buys Happiness shows that Lachow is a director worth keeping an eye on.
Neither too surreal nor too self-involved, the film leavens its obvious symbolism with quirky digressions and a sharp appreciation of all the troublesome details of a troubled marriage.
Like watching an acting exercise in the rehearsal stages; this project feels as if it is still on its way to being realized.
