Description

CW: Discussions of suicide and sexual assault as plot elements. A wacky entry in the "just tryin' to get home" genre, Martin Scorsese's post-THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST kickstarter couldn't be more indispensable. Both pointed critique of Reagan-era exceptionalism and pastiche of 20 years of Hollywood preceding its release, AFTER HOURS pits Griffin Dunne's entitled yuppie against a single night with the inhabitants of SoHo – a people and place he'd rather ignore – while he waits for the haven of his corporate word processor gig.

Closing music: "Midnight" by Howard Shore from AFTER HOURS.
