After Business Hours is a 1925 American silent drama film directed by Malcolm St. Clair and starring Elaine Hammerstein, Lou Tellegen, and Phyllis Haver.

[4] As described in a film magazine review,[5] John King enters married life with the plan of allowing his wife June no money except a few dollars a week.

[6] After his dismissal from the “budget conscious” Warner Bros. studios, director St. Clair was engaged by Columbia Pictures—at that time considered a “Poverty Row” studio—to direct After Business Hours.

The shorter version was profitable, and its “artistic and financial success” garnered the attention of Paramount Picture executives.

[8] A nitrate master of After Business Hours that is missing one of its five reels is in the collections of Library and Archives Canada.
