Night Shift (film)

Night Shift is a 1982 film, one of Ron Howard's earliest directorial efforts. It's about how two city morgue attendants turn the morgue into a pimp headquarters. It stars Howard's Happy Days co-star Henry Winkler and is Michael Keaton's debut movie. Also appearing are Shelly Long, Richard Belzer, and (as usual for Ron Howard films) Clint Howard.

The movie's theme song, That's What Friends Are For was written by Burt Bacharach and Carole Bayer Sager. The song was performed by Rod Stewart in the film. It was later covered by Dionne Warwick, Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight, and Elton John; the cover version became a Number 1 hit and raised millions for AIDS causes.
