After Hours (DVD)

Paul Hackett (Griffin Dunne), a mild-mannered word processor, meets a mysterious woman in a coffee shop and agrees to visit her downtown later that night. What begins as a simple evening out quickly spirals into a surreal nightmare as Paul becomes trapped in a bizarre, unpredictable New York City after dark. Losing his money, his dignity, and nearly his mind, Paul scrambles through one absurd encounter after another, just trying to make it home alive.A dark comedy of errors and paranoia, After Hours is one of Martin Scorsese's most offbeat and inventive films--an atmospheric cult classic that captures the chaos and alienation of urban night life.
