“This is the work of a master filmmaker who controls his effects so skillfully that I was drained by this film.” - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

“It's his most-un-Scorsese-like film, and it's an overlooked gem.” - Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic

In a Manhattan cafe, word processor Paul Hackett (Griffin Dunne) meets and talks literature with Marcy (Rosanna Arquette). Later that night, Paul takes a cab to Marcy's downtown apartment. His $20 bill flying out the window during the ride portends the unexpected night he has. He cannot pay for the ride and finds himself in a series of awkward, surreal and life-threatening situations with a colorful cast of characters. He spends the rest of the night trying to return uptown.
