Why No One Talks About Scorsese's After Hours Movie
The 1985 Martin Scorsese black comedy After Hours certainly has its fans, but when compared and analyzed alongside the legendary director’s other work, this movie is barely even given a mention. The 14-time Academy Award nominee is one of the “Movie Brats” who broke into Hollywood during the early-1970s and found success by using gritty realism and taking inspiration from both classic cinema and foreign films. Breaking into the scene with Mean Streets in 1973, Scorsese’s New Hollywood gems Taxi Driver and Raging Bull both shook the industry while his Robert De Niro gangster flicks Goodfellas, Casino, and The Irishman are loved and lauded by many. Collaborating with Leonardo DiCaprio in recent years, their work, including Gangs of New York, The Aviator, Shutter Island, and The Wolf on Wall Street, have stood out as big-budget hits.
