A
1986 film comedy directed by Richard Benjamin starring
Tom Hanks and Shelley Long. The Money Pit features attorney Walter Fielding (Hanks) and his violinist girlfriend Anna (Long), who are swindled into buying a house that's falling apart at the seams. As they keep getting further in debt in their efforts to restore the house, the pressure starts taking a toll on the couple. Part of
Hanks's period of comedies made between
Splash and
Joe Versus the Volcano, the film is also one of the reasons Shelley Long quit the cast of
Cheers hoping to make a transition to movies.
