This is one of my all time favourite films, I need to have a go writing a review but I struggle to articulate in words my reaction to the film. It has so many wonderful layers and characters, and Griffin Dunne is fantastic. I also agree it would have been to the film's detriment if Tim Burton had directed it. Scorsese was in a purple patch with black comedies around this time, what with The King Of Comedy as well, and he really excelled here. I feel After Hours gets lost in the background of Taxi Driver and Goodfellas, but it shouldn't, it's a brilliant film. Wholeheartedly agree!
