Brewster’s Millions

2025-06-07

This week we discuss the 1985 American comedy Brewster's Millions directed by Walter Hill and starring Richard Pryor and John Candy. What a concept this is....what would you do? Spend the $30m in 30 days for a chance to win $300m or take $1m up front (1985 values). Did you know this is based on a 1902 novel? The story is over 120 years old. No, neither did we. It has been re-made 7 times and this is the latest. The boys discuss what they would do with a $100m lottery win. The answers are very different...

This week we discuss the 1985 American comedy Brewster's Millions directed by Walter Hill and starring Richard Pryor and John Candy.

What a concept this is....what would you do? Spend the $30m in 30 days for a chance to win $300m or take $1m up front (1985 values).

Did you know this is based on a 1902 novel? The story is over 120 years old. No, neither did we. It has been re-made 7 times and this is the latest.

The boys discuss what they would do with a $100m lottery win. The answers are very different from both.

This is good fun and a nostalgic look back at a favourite.

We think they should remake it again. Imagine what you could do.
