The Brass Teapot

COMING SOON: Ramaa Mosley's The Brass Teapot (US, 2012) - The Brass Teapot sets out to prove that money is, indeed, the root of all evil, but while this dark comedy makes a few smart observations about the lengths people will go to snag the American Dream, its satiric edge gets dulled rather quickly. Director Ramaa Mosley’s feature debut starts off with a fanciful concept — a poor, young married couple find a magic money-dispensing teapot — but the follow-through fails to build satisfyingly on the juicy premise. 2012TOR.
