Review of After Hours (1985) by Adam Z — 13 Sep 2007
Griffin Dunne is trapped in an area of New York and wants to get home. Sounds simple? Well, its anything but in this black comedy gem from Martin Scorsese. Film history seems to have written this stop-gap between the early Scorsese classics (Mean Streets, Raging Bull) and his later gangster masterpieces (Goodfellas, Casino).
Really, this should be mentioned amongst the better of his works. The film is a paranoid fable of urban decay in the modern world, and as such is a hilariously dark film.
