Synopsis
A meek word processor impulsively travels to Manhattan's Soho District to date an attractive but apparently disturbed young woman and finds himself trapped there in a nightmarishly surreal vortex of improbable coincidences and farcical circumstances.
Review
To get an understanding of the caliber film we're dealing with, you
have to imagine some of the finest elements of other films being wound
into a tight 95 minute package and directed by the incomparable Martin
Scorsese. After Hours reminds this critic in many ways of Stanley
Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut. But somehow it seems to be about the best
elements of that film. Our film deals with a mild-mannered Manhattan
office worker taking a late night trip to the Soho district to meet up
with a beautiful woman he first encountered earlier in the evening. So,
much like with Tom Cruise in EWS, we have a protagonist searching for
love in a world completely foreign to him. But instead of a never
ending and overly talky film, we get a tightly wound and much better
paced film from Scorsese. When the film does slow down for
conversations, the ones we're treated to are comparable to the best
Tarantino ever wrote for any of his films. Fortunately we don't get too
many of them, like we would in a Tarantino film, however.
Griffin Dunne plays Paul Hackett, who is bound and determined to hook
up with Marcy (Rosanne Arquette) whom he met in a restaurant earlier
that evening. Once he makes it to Soho, Paul quickly realizes this
spur-of-the-moment rendezvous may have been a terrible idea. Apparently
Soho is (or was in 1985) a macabre place full of eccentric artists,
bondage enthusiasts, and vigilante mobs made up of mostly gay people.
Not only does Paul fail to score with Marcy, he ends up being stranded
in the neighborhood with no money to get home, and being blamed for
several apartment break-ins by a crowd that wants his blood! Every
place or person he turns to for help seems to get him deeper and deeper
into danger. There are all kinds of famous or soon to be famous people
popping up in little roles here and there. Will Patton as a leather
clad bondage enthusiast may be the most odd. Also look for Scorsese in
a nightclub sporting a beard and shining a spotlight down on the rowdy
patrons.
Unlike many Scorsese films, this one does not rely much at all on
violence to get the point of danger across. I believe there is only one
violent death, and the victim is not a main character. But in true
Scorcese form, the scene produces a laugh! More than anything else,
this film has a claustrophobic feeling. It's as if the world is
crumbling all around Paul Hackett, and the next door he walks through
may be his last. By the final fifteen minutes, he finds himself in the
apartment of a gay man he picks on the street. To the man's obvious
disappointment, Hackett simply wants someone to tell his story to.
Before the scene has any type of logical conclusion, Hackett finds
himself back on the street running for his life once again. His
momentary attempt at finding compassion shattered in the blink of an
eye. The whole film is kind of like that.
After Hours may not be for all tastes, but this critic first saw it
back in junior high and never forgot what a treasure it is. 10 of 10
stars.
