Joel Goodson is the type of teenager who makes his parents proud: he's nice, handsome, intelligent, and even principled. But when Joel's parents leave town for a few days, a series of events occur that will change Joel's sheltered life. For starters, he meets Lana, a hooker who proceeds to deflower our young hero, and then suggests he turn his home into a house of prostitution for one evening. Joel agrees, and just as sexy hookers and randy guys turn Joel's house upside down, a representative from Princeton University arrives, to interview Joel! How Joel handles this and other crises (losing his dad's Porsche, the loss of all his furniture, falling in love with a prostitute) will alter Joel's life forever.

Ive always loved this movie. "Risky Business" is a classic film with the message
that anything is possible if youre willing to take some risks- a motto that
teenagers from the 80s/90s heard over and over. How Joel deals with the
challenges thrown his way is adorable! This is really a coming-of-age story,
saturated in classic 80s aesthetic. So fun to watch!
