After Hours
Incredibly anxiety inducing, energetic and fast paced fever dream of a film. The way that the story just compounds problems upon problems for Paul to wade his way through creates such a nightmarish atmosphere, yet the film itself has a silent undercurrent of absurdist comedy that makes simultaneously allows it to double up as an incredibly enjoyable comedy and comfort watch. Griffin Dunne gives an incredibly real performance here as a lowly everyman thrust into unfathomable circumstances beyond his control. Recommeded.
5/5
