Ever have a night where nothing seems to go right? After releasing The King of Comedy just a few years before, Martin Scorsese kept working on his “comedy chops” with After Hours — the story of one night in the life of everyman, data entry worker Paul Hackett, played by Griffin Dunne (An American Werewolf in London and My Girl). It is hard to describe the level of strangeness and unease After Hours puts on the viewer. Paul’s night begins with a happenstance meeting that could seemingly result in a possible romantic encounter with Rosanna Arquette (Desperately Seeking Susan and Silverado). The plot devolves from there into an unceasing chain of worst-case scenarios. With Teri Garr (Young Frankenstein and Close Encounters of the Third Kind), Catherine O’Hara (Beetlejuice, Home Alone ONE AND TWO!!), Linda Fiorentino (The Last Seduction), Bronson Pinchot (COUSIN BALKI!!!) and CHEECH AND CHONG!! YES, THAT CHEECH AND CHONG!! CAN’T MISS!!!
