How to Murder a Millionaire (1990): Cast & Plot

Irma, Joan Rivers, is a wealthy woman who loves the thrill of high-end shopping and the comfort of a lavish, carefully curated life. Her days revolve around fine clothes, elegant dinners, and the kind of social circle that defines success in her world. Yet underneath the surface, cracks begin to appear as her marriage to Walter, Alex Rocco, shows signs of strain. Her confidant and friend, Loretta Morgan Fairchild, stands by Irma, offering steady advice and a shoulder to lean on as tensions between Irma and Walter rise during a celebratory dinner at their home. The gathering, intended to mark an anniversary, instead highlights a growing rift: Irma feels unappreciated, and Walter’s demeanor hints at distance and dissatisfaction.
