One Night

How much drama can one night contain? Marvels of compression, these films tell their stories over the course of just a few hours between quitting time and dawn, the perfect setting for horror ( Night of the Living Dead ), romance ( Before Sunrise ), deep conversation ( My Dinner with Andre ), and action ( Collateral ). In the hands of master directors like Mike Nichols ( Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? ), Elaine May ( Mikey and Nicky ), and Martin Scorsese ( After Hours ), each minute becomes an adventure, emotions and relationships are intensely heightened, and one unforgettable night is enough to pack in a lifetime’s worth of tension, revelation, and surprise.
