Directed by: Martin Scorsese Written by: Joseph Minion Starring: Rosanna Arquette, Verna Bloom, Thomas Chong, Griffin Dunne, Linda Fiorentino, Teri Garr, John Heard, Richard Cheech Marin & Catherine O'Hara What the box says: A bored, buttoned-up, button-down word processor (Griffin Dunne) sets out on a late-night date. He's about to become the punchline of a giant cosmic joke. Because different rules apply when it's After Hours. New York filmmaker Martin Scorsese takes a darkly comic look at his favorite city in this wild free-for-all that won him Best Director honors at the 1985 Independent Spirit Awards and the 1986 Cannes Film Festival. This tall tale of the ultimate bad night on the town offers juicy roles to Rosanna Arquette, Linda Fiorentino, Teri Garr, Catherine O'Hara, Cheech & Chong and others our hapless hero meets. Scorsese said Joseph Minion's tantalizing script was "like a Chinese puzzle." You'll howl as you put the pieces together. |
