After Hours

Martin Brest's "After Hours" captures the neon-drenched pulse of New York City as Paul Hackett, a mundane office worker, descends into a night of surreal encounters and escalating chaos. From a chance encounter with a mysterious woman to a series of bizarre misadventures, Paul navigates a city that seems to mock his every move, blurring the lines between fantasy and reality. Brest's film is a darkly comic odyssey, where the ordinary crumbles under the weight of the extraordinary, trapping Paul in a labyrinth of late-night Manhattan.
