A part of the Legacy Project 10th Anniversary Series and the Ford on the Road series.
A full 17 years after its original release, 54 - Mark Christopher’s sexy and salacious salute to that infamous temple of hedonism, New York’s 70s nightclub Studio 54 - has been gorgeously reconstructed to reflect the director’s original vision. With 36 added minutes of original material, the story of Shane O’Shea’s (Ryan Phillippe) journey from fresh-faced Jersey boy to “Shane 54” is now darker, more tenacious and, most importantly, queerer. A significant plot line involving Shane’s bisexuality along with his ménage à trois with his two co-stars will finally see the light of day after years on the cutting room floor. Put on your tightest polyester getup and join the director, cast and crew for a raucous night of disco decadence at L.A.’s most popular outdoor screening venue.
Dir. Mark Christopher | 1998/2015, USA, 106 min.
