If After Hours hit the spot, these will too

Witty and playful in the same breath
The difference: Easier on the tension than After Hours

The same mix in both: tension, then stillness
The difference: Takes it somewhere less witty than After Hours does

Both are built on the same subject: suicide
The difference: 24 years apart, and the 2000s show

The same preoccupation in both: suicide

Both are Martin Scorsese's work, and they rhyme

Both lean on melancholy more than on comedy


Common ground: thief
The difference: Sits closer to crime than After Hours does

Playful thriller, and it commits to that
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics


Thriller with a pulse of tension, in both cases

Dreamlike drama, and it commits to that
