Friday Midnight Movie—“After Hours” @12:07 am
My Apartment/Chelsea
I had a conversation last week with MAD commenter (and former 365 bars copilot) Al last week and among the subjects that came up was the movie After Hours. After Hours came out in 1985 and it’s directed by Martin Scorsese. It’s a weird movie and a friend of mine has said that when he watches it, it makes him feel like there’s bugs crawling under his skin and I couldn’t agree more. All of us have had nights where you just can’t seem to get home, but it never gets as bad as it does for Paul Hackett. You’ll see what I mean as the MAD Friday Night Midnight Movie rolls. Lights, camera...internet!
Okay, last week I was able to cut out huge chunks of Glengarry Glen Ross and still tell the story. I can't do that with After Hours, so we'll have to do it in sections. Stay tuned next Friday for part 2. Goodnight everybody and see you tomorrow after dark. And while we're on the topic of movies, listen to The Secret Weapon on Woody Radio with movie lines inserted between songs, lots of fun and great tunes! Songs by "Boris" movie lines by Gidget! The show runs today from 10 am to 5 pm. Stream it live here: The Secret Weapon.
I’m gonna wait, way in the midnight hour
That’s when my love begins to shine.
