From 1982, "Night Shift" is one of director Ron Howard's earliest films. A comedy, it stars Henry Winkler("Happy Days"), Michael Keaton("Mr. Mom", "Beetlejuice", "Batman"), and Shelley Long("Cheers").

The movie is about Walter(Winkler), an employee at the New York City Morgue. He is moved to the night shift, where he gets a new partner, Bill Blazejowski(Keaton). Both Walter and Bill feel for Walter's neighbor Belinda(Long), a prostitute. Both Walter and Bill realize that with Walter's business sense and Bill's passion and drive, they can help Belinda and her fellow "ladies of the night" when they turn the morgue into a business for, um, the ladies. Lol.

This was the film debut of Michael Keaton

I love MK. He's really good in this one. Real energetic. He's a whirlwind in this one. It's a good movie.
