Gordon Gecko was not the first to establish neoliberal ideology in cinema. It was Joel Goodsen, the main character played by Tom Cruise in "Risky Business" by Paul Brickman. In this 1983 film, a teenager becomes an entrepreneur (of himself) and unceremoniously opens a brothel in his parents' house - with success. Today, the film is largely forgotten; the only thing that can be remembered is the rock'n'roll scene in which Tom Cruise dances through the living room. But it's time to rediscover "Risky Business". More about it from Wolfgang M. Schmitt in the film analysis!
