Plot summary

While working at the club, Shane befriends Anita Randazzo (Salma Hayek), an aspiring singer, and her husband Greg (Breckin Meyer). As Shane gets sucked into the hard-partying scene at Studio 54, and as his life spirals downward, so does Studio 54.

The director's cut runs one hour and 45 minutes, 12 minutes of which are not in the studio's DVD release.
