Risky Business

Risky Business is a 1983 film written and directed by Paul Brickman . Considered a breakout film for celebrity actor Tom Cruise (in the role of Joel Goodson), the movie is about a suburban Chicago teenager who sinks his father's Porsche 928 into Lake Michigan and runs a brothel in his parents' house while they are on vacation. The film also stars Rebecca De Mornay as Lana, Joe Pantoliano as Guido, Curtis Armstrong as Miles, Richard Masur as the Princeton interviewer and Bronson Pinchot as Barry.

Tagline: There's a time for playing it safe and a time for Risky Business.

Quote

Guido: "Look Joel, you seem like a smart kid, so I'm gonna give you some advice. In a sluggish economy, never fuck with another man's livelihood."
