What a Way to Go!

This black comedy opens with Louisa Foster donating a multimillion dollar check to the IRS. The tax department thinks she's crazy and sends her to a psychiatrist. She then discusses her four marriages, in which all of her husbands became incredibly rich and died prematurely because of their drive to be rich.

The film underperformed commercially against its mid-range budget of $20.0M, earning $13.3M globally (-34% loss). While initial box office returns were modest, the film has gained appreciation for its unconventional structure within the comedy genre.
