Risky Business (DVD 1999)

Meet Joel Goodsen, an industrious college-bound 17 year old. A responsible, trustworthy son. But he’s been too good for too long. Joel’s parents are away and he’s in charge of the house. They trust him. Maybe they shouldn’t.

Risky Business slyly explores the teen dilemma of growing up good-hearted but guilt-ridden. In his star-making role as Joel, Tom Cruise is a charmer-with-conscience that foreshadows Jerry Maguire. Rebecca de Mornay makes a dynamic movie debut as liberated call girl Lana. They and writer/director Paul Brickman make this film “a first-class affair” (People).
