After Hours is undoubtedly the movie that Martin Scorsese "controls" at least-it is obvious that he has not recovered from The Last Temptation's miscarriage at a low ebb. However, this is the smoothest of all Scorsese films I have ever watched. Although before shooting, the director was still struggling with the decision of "whether to quit the film industry".
The reason for liking this film is simple: although the film is a work created by the director, few directors can filter themselves and the outside world's interference with the film itself. A frustrated director may also export a very lively movie.
The most fascinating thing about After Hours is its natural vitality.

After Hours quotes

  • Kiki: You do that all day and your own shoulders get pretty sore.

    Paul Hackett: You want a massage?

    Kiki: You read my mind. Would you?

    Paul Hackett: Sure. I'm not too good at this. I just know a few basic moves.

    Kiki: Just make it hurt and you're on the right track.

  • Marcy: I hope you don't have to get up early tomorrow morning or anything.

    Paul Hackett: No. No, I don't.

    Marcy: Because I think you're somebody I can really talk to. And tonight I feel like - I feel like I'm gonna let loose or something. I feel like - I feel like something incredible is really gonna happen here!

    [laughs]

    Marcy: I feel soooo excited. I don't know why? I feel it.
