spoiler alertafter hour have typically be view a one of martin scorsese minor film and but this excellent and frenetically pace dark comedy work at a number of level and while also perhaps unintentionally raise a few provocative question . in a sense a very different sort of love letter to new york ( if you get off on the raw and electric buzz of nyc and this film be for you ) and after hour follow paul ( griffin dunne ) through what begin a a spontaneous attempt at a date or hookup and and swiftly degenerate into one of the bad night of his life . the uncomfortable outside scene ( constant drizzle ) and the always claustrophobic interior amplify the story perfectly and a paul lose money and key and be mistake for a burglar and be ultimately chase through soho by a vigilante mob after hour be often hilarious and and relentless and with precious few moment of relaxation provide . the social ideology run through the film be provocative a well and somewhat disturbing a paul ( a rather wholesome look yuppie ) end up be persecute by a series of casually weird performance artist and leather freak and bikers and hippy and punk and gay people and psychologically unstable woman this self contain enclave of bohemia en extremis be clearly a world that the wholesome look paul be incapable of comprehend and and definitely doesn not belong in . the political implication of this reflexive anti bohemianism be the lone flaw problematic a this be otherwise one of the most immaculate wouldark comedy you will ever see and perhaps the least known of scorsese many worthwhile film . minor quibble aside and this be a remarkable piece of work the pacing be exhaust ( scorsese manages to very realistically reflect the sensory overload rawness of new york ) and the ensemble cast be consistently ( occasionally shockingly ) great and and the use of music to advance the story ( the monkees and joni mitchell and bad brain and peggy lee all help to advance several great scene ) be also stun . terrific end .
