Seeing Larry’s desperation, and wanting to protect his co-worker who is guilty, Joey claims he is the one that has been sleeping with Larry wife’s to distract Larry from doing something he’ll regret. Larry is ready to deal with the man who has been seeing his wife, once and for all. Larry reaches a breaking point, and one day comes crashing into the car dealership equipped with weapons, and explosives. She has been sleeping around with some of the salesmen at the dealership, and her husband Larry (Tim Robbins), is not only suspicious, he’s desperate. Her husband, while not the sharpest tool in the toolbox, is a man who senses that not everything is quite right in their relationship. While Joey has enough to deal with, it seems that his co-worker, Donna (Annabella Sciorra- Jungle Fever, The Sopranos), a beautiful woman who is sought after by all of the male employees at the dealership, and who is married, has been having a fling of her own. Eventually, all of the threads Joey has been pulling on in his life will begin to unravel, culminating in a fateful day at the dealership, on the final sales day before his employment future is decided. His co-workers are selling cars, while Joey is sinking further and further in his life, even owning money to a local mob boss. He has also found a way to give it to the owner of the hearse. He also is seeing Lila (Lori Petty- A League of Their Own, Point Break).ĭesperate for sales, Joey is trying to hand his business card to everyone he meets, including the recent widow whom he meets in a funeral procession where the hearse has broken down. ![]() Despite that love, Joey is quite the womanizer, carrying on a relationship with Joy Munchack (Fran Dresher- The Nanny, Jack), a married woman whose husband Harry (Zack Norman- Romancing the Stone) brings her into the shop to get a car. Unfortunately, his slump means that unless he can sell 12 cars in the last 2 days, he will find himself without a job.Ĭomplicating matters is the fact that he doesn’t have much of a relationship with his daughter, and an antagonistic relationship with his ex-wife Tina (Pamela Reed- Kindergarten Cop), whom he still secretly loves. With the dealership facing a move to a new location, the pressure is on to sell the remaining inventory. ![]() Roger Donaldson ( The November Man, Cocktail) directs the comedy, Cadillac Man, starring Robin Williams as Joey O’Brien, a fast talking car salesman who has lost his ability to sell cars.
