I'm older than the average bear here. Grew up in NY and Boston during Studio 54's era 1977-'78. I thought I was vaguely familiar with the rise and fall. After seeing this, I knew absolutely nothing.
No interest for me in the drugs and celebrities. Whatever. To each his own.
What makes this documentary so fascinating is the tale is essentially about financial fraud and a tax scam scheme. One of my favorite genres.
So, the first half is about the rise of the 2 owners and the club. 2nd half - the fall. Well told. Captivating.
