STUDIO 54 Movie Poster * MIKE MYERS & NEVE CAMPBELL * 27" x 40" Rare 1998 NEW : Large Wall Size : 27" inches wide by 40" inches high. Original Official USA Advance Release Advertising Poster for the August 28th 1998 Limited Release of " 54 ". Written and directed by Mark Christopher and featuring a beautiful color portrait graphic of the four main characters in this 1970's period film about the famed ( some would say infamous ) discothèque located at 54th Street in Manhattan in New York City. The film centers around Shane O'Shea (Ryan Phillippe), a young man from Jersey City, New Jersey who is handsome enough to become a bartender at Studio 54. While working at the club, Shane befriends Anita Randazzo (Salma Hayek), an aspiring singer, and her husband Greg (Breckin Meyer) as well as Neve Campbell's character Julie Black. As Shane gets sucked into the hard-partying scene at Studio 54, and as his life begins to spiral out of control and downward, so does Studio 54, which eventually, with much fanfare, gained it something of a " Sodom & Gomorra " reputation for the 1970's party set. Based on two short films he had made, Mark Christopher persuaded Miramax to back a movie about Studio 54. He had spent five years researching the club and the time period, as well as working on a screenplay. Miramax purchased a partial screenplay in 1995 and developed the script with the filmmaker for over a year. Christopher shot the film in Toronto over two months in the fall of 1997. Top-billed Mike Myers, in his first serious dramatic role as Studio 54 co-founder Steve Rubell garnered much of the film's positive word-of-mouth, generating much speculation that his performance would land him among those nominated for an Academy Award. Critical response to the re-edited director's cut ( on DVD ), which includes a much deeper story-line and much more character development of the principles , has gained this 1998 film a significant amount of renewed interest and cult status.
