Midnight Video

An archive of two chaps, a laptop and a mic attempting to unearth the lost, forgotten and overlooked in cinema.

Midnight Video 38: After Hours, A Visitor to the Museum and Dune

This show's filling between the sci-fi bread is the winner of the listener's vote poll; Martin Scorsese's After Hours.  One man's descent into a night of mares and a great way to finish the vote.

The upper slice of bread is Konstantin Lopushansky's post-apocalyptic A Visitor to the Museum - a Soviet metaphysical musing upon some of the big questions in life, but does it have any answers?

Completing this delicious sandwich of cinema we brave the Alan Smithee cut of Dune with a 10 minute prologue and 30 mins of extra footage, does Smithee's cut attempt to fill in the gaps that Lynch deigned to leave out?
