Does anyone have an idea of the title of a movie around at the same time as Mannequin and along the same lines?
My details are a little vague as it has been a long time since I have seen the movie.
It was an 80's teen movie about a night caretaker / cleaner in a huge USA department store or maybe a mall. Whilst at work in the store overnight he would play around with all the items in the store until morning when he would rush round to get all his cleaning jobs done. He meets a girl (I think at his high school) and takes her to the store one night and together they spend the night getting up to all kinds of crazy stuff and of course fall in love.
Does this ring any bell? I have spent ages looking through the net with no success on this movie, although I did find my other movie.. Hardware.
Many thanks to anyone that can help.

Devolution here,

Is there any doubt that you are talking about the 1991 hit Career Opportunities? With the lovely Jennifer Connelly.

Has to be that film. I haven't seen it in ages but Jennifer Connely skating on roller skates in the mall was hard to forget. She showed everyone she could act too in a Beautiful Mind. Hard to believe the janitor offed Hoffa in the movie Hoffa.

Moviefanman, in England 'Career Opportunities' was released as 'One wild night'.

I knew the film was right, but the name didn't ring any bells. This also explains why I can find no copies of C/O in the UK. Thanks for the tip, One Wild Night it is then. Cheers.
