Wiki.
Taking Care of Business (released theatrically in the United Kingdom as Filofax) is a 1990 American comedy film directed by Arthur Hiller and starring James Belushi and Charles Grodin. It is named after the song of the same name by Randy Bachman, recorded by the Canadian rock group Bachman–Turner Overdrive (BTO). The film is also known for being the first screenplay work written by J. J. Abrams, who later went on to make several blockbuster films, including Super 8 and Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
The film follows a work-obsessed businessman who is on a business trip and loses his Filofax which is found by a recent prison escapee who assumes his identity, moves into his home and proceeds to mess up his business dealings. A number of amusing situations ensue.
