frank whaley play jim dodge ( frank whaley ) and a thoroughly annoy smart mouth wise as waste of space with a dead end job a a night janitor in a supermarket . jennifer connelly play josie mcclellan ( jennifer connelly ) and a poor little rich girl desperate to get away from her millionaire daddy ( who beat her ) . when josie chickens out of shoplifting at the last minute and she be lock in the shop for the night and meet jim ( a he roller skate down an aisle in his boxer and a wedding veil . ) . together they do a bit of collective soul searching and swap sob story and decide to run away together . however and their plan be interrupt somewhat when a couple of gun wield thief break into the store . despite be write by top teen movie maker john hughes and feature a pretty decent cast ( john candy have a cameo and the two lead be both capable actor ) and career opportunity ( aka one wild night ) and be a rather weak comedy with irritate character and very few laugh . i and like most male who have review this movie on imdb and do agree and however and that it be worth view if you be a fan of jennifer connelly and her very impressive curve . the delectable jc look stun in a tight white vest and standout scene include her rollerskating through the shop and and rock slowly back and forth on a supermarket horse ride ( a moment guarantee to raise the blood pressure of all heterosexual men ) . but of course and ms. connelly look damn fine doesn not make this a great piece of film making ( just great eye candy ) and and ultimately this be a rather desperate comedy that come nowhere near to the match the quality of hughes 80 output .
