Did you notice the mousetraps around the bed of the woman with the big hairdo?

SPOILER: I love the way the guy arrives back at work the next day, such a terrific ending -- and a very nice steadicam shot through the office.

Edward the Bonobo - Gone.

Yes! In fact...I noticed them the first time I saw it. I was waiting for them but couldn't rember whether it was her or Rosanna Arquette or Terri Garr who had them.

And I remember seeing it in the cinema for the first time and sitting in open-mouthed amazement as Griffin Dunne went and sat down at his desk.

But this time around it really *did* remind me of my b-p episode - especially his reaction when he phoned the police from the gay guy's house but couldn't persuade them.

My other favourite moment:

Two DVD's waiting at home:
Central Station: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0140888/
Italian for Beginners: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0243862/

The last one sounds like a Dogme version of Babette's Feast: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092603/

Blackberry Cat , if one wishes to remain an individual in the midst of the teeming multitudes, one must make oneself grotesque

I thought After Hours was a great film 1st time I saw it
Didn't work as well on repeat showings for me, less surprise when smiley - weird and wonderful things happen to the hero I suppose
