About Wishing to Get Rich Quick
Gambler Kosim tries to hang himself but is saved by an old man, who then recommends he go visit a cave-dwelling hermit who knows black magic. There, Kosim learns a magic spell to transform himself into a pig. As a requirement, he has to sacrifice one of his children and he's not allowed to hear prayer nor see monkeys. He uses his new power to steal money until he's caught, shot and decapitated, but his head lives on.
Directed by B.Z. Kadaryono, Wishing to Get Rich Quick leans on a strong ensemble — Muni Cader, Lenny Marlina, Maruli Sitompul — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about fantasy titles of 1976.
