...certainly the case with the late-'70s metropolitan New York division, in Mark Christopher's 54. We are yanked back to Studio 54, the trash-glam Manhattan disco where, for a few years, simply everyone who did anyone was desperate to be seen. They had a blast at this all-night carnival of drugs, booze, sex, and a lot of pretty people who tawked funny. And the funniest was 54's co-owner and host Steve Rubell, the Elsa Maxwell of sleaze...

After a harrowing all-night vigil, during which the infant hovered near death, the detoxification was a success and the baby drug-free. Grateful and overjoyed, the mother pleaded with Doug...
