Cadillac Man 1990

As the clock ticks away on Joey O’Brien’s two-day deadline to sell twelve cars or risk losing his job at the Queens car dealership, the pressures in his life reach a fever pitch. His estranged ex-wife is breathing down his neck for alimony payments, while his daughter remains missing and his romantic entanglements with not one, but two mistresses are on the verge of imploding. To make matters worse, Joey’s outstanding loan from a ruthless Mafia don hangs over him like a sword of Damocles, its repayment or default hanging precariously in the balance.

On the day of the dealership’s big car sale, and with his deadline looming, the chaos reaches new heights when Larry, a motorcycle-riding vigilante wielding an AK-47, takes the entire operation hostage. Believing his wife is cheating on him, Larry demands answers from Joey O’Brien (played by). As police surround the dealership, Joey seizes the opportunity to talk Larry down from the brink of violence, claiming that he himself has been carrying on a torrid affair with Larry’s better half.

In a moment of unexpected bonding between hostage and negotiator, Joey convinces Larry to surrender peacefully. But little do they know, the crisis is far from over - in fact, it’s only just beginning. When police mistakenly wound Larry after most of the hostages have been released, Joey remains by his side as he recovers, revealing a shocking truth: he never actually slept with Larry’s wife. As the dust settles, Joey’s world undergoes a seismic shift: his mistresses discover each other and promptly dump him, his daughter returns home, his job is secured, the Mafia don - whose son was among the hostages - forgives his debt, and he begins to reconcile with his ex-wife.
