4K Restoration!
After a chance encounter with the girl of his dreams (Rosanna Arquette), Manhattan office drone Paul (Griffin Dunne) sets out for a night in the city that will bring him into conflict with her malevolent roommate (Linda Fiorentino), a paranoid ice cream truck driver (Catherine O’Hara), and a lovestruck, Monkees-obsessed waitress (Teri Garr), to name just a few. Playing in a new 4K restoration, Scorsese’s late-night adventure through the mean streets of a pre-gentrified Soho is part hilarious madcap comedy, part harrowing anxiety nightmare, and will resonate with any urbanite who has faced the sometimes-Sisyphean task of just trying to get home.
“Wincingly funny… reestablished [Scorsese] as one of the very few
contemporary masters of filmmaking.”
