The Morning After (1986)

Film · 1986 · 102 min · R · Thriller · Mystery · Romance

Last night she drank to forget. Today she woke up to a murder. Is he her last hope or the last man she should trust?

Failed actress Alex Sternbergen wakes up hungover one morning in an apartment she does not recognize, unable to remember the previous evening -- and with a dead body in bed next to her. As she tries to piece together the events of the night, Alex cannot totally rely on friends or her estranged husband, Joaquin, for assistance. Only a single ally, loner ex-policeman Turner Kendall, can help her escape her predicament and find the true killer.

Directed by Sidney Lumet

Starring Jane Fonda, Jeff Bridges, Raúl Juliá, Diane Salinger, Richard Foronjy, Geoffrey Scott, James "Gypsy" Haake, Kathleen Wilhoite
