Career Opportunities

Yesterday my husband and I were flipping through the channels when we stumbled across Career Opportunities, a movie from 1991 that was so good! It had the perfect mix of terribly fantastic 90's fashion, angsty teen plot lines and bad music. The movie stars Jennifer Connelly as Josie, a rich but troubled teenager who gets locked inside of a Target with a nerdy guy that she went to high school with but of course never noticed until this one evening when she has the time of her life with him rollerblading around the target and fending off robbers. In the middle of it all they "find"themselves, blah blah blah. It was great. And I was struck by how beautiful Jennifer Connelly is in this movie. She's not too done up, and has really thick eyebrows, but she is really stunning. Here are some stills from the movie, via IMDB.
