Michael Keaton in Ron Howard’s NIGHT SHIFT Now Available on Blu-ray From Warner Archive

“This guy – he doesn’t have fun. I’m gonna teach him – this wild man – how to have fun right now.”

Michael Keaton in Ron Howard’s NIGHT SHIFT (1982) is now available on Blu-ray from Warner Archive

The world of Wall Street drove Charles Lumley III up the wall. His new job at the New York City Morgue is quieter – until Billy “Blaze” Blazejowski shows up with a cool idea on how to liven things up. 

Directed by Ron Howard (A Beautiful Mind), Night Shift is a breakneck farce rife with hysterical ideas thanks to veteran comedy writers Lowell Ganz and Babaloo Mandel (ParenthoodFever Pitch). Henry Winkler (Happy Days) is low-key Lumley in a delightfully offbeat performance. Shelley Long of Cheers also scores as a hapless happy hooker. But the casting triumph is film-debuting Michael Keaton as Billy Blaze, launching a career rich in comedic and dramatic highlights. Is this a great country or what?!

16×9 1.85:1 WIDESCREEN. Includes Theatrical Trailer (HD).
