Saturday Night Live star
Dana Carvey had his first leading role on the big screen in this
comedy.
Eddie (
Carvey) and
Lou (
Todd Graff) are a pair of small-time con artists deep in debt to
Pinkie (
Mike Bacarella), a loan shark. During a lean period,
Eddie and
Lou resort to breaking and entering to make some money, but as they're clearing out a house, they overhear the answering machine announce that the owner is away on business for a few weeks -- and the housesitter won't be able to stop by.
Eddie and
Lou settle in and enjoy their good fortune, which just gets better when
Milt (
Robert Loggia) pays a visit.
Milt assumes that
Eddie is the housesitter, who is a close friend of his son.
Eddie is soon introduced to
Milt's beautiful daughter,
Annie (
Julia Campbell), and
Milt decides that
Eddie is executive material at his successful manufacturing firm. Soon
Eddie starts to wonder if he should go on lying to the people he's come to like -- and there's the little matter of the 60,000 dollars that
Eddie and
Lou swiped from
Pinkie's car.
Opportunity Knocks also features
Milo O'Shea and
James Tolkan.
