“Well, before you see this, ask yourself if you either: a) want to engorge yourself with lengthy witty banter, or b) see a Wasp-y version of the weaving of people in and out of relationships like Seinfeld or Woody Allen but with a bigger cast? If your answer is yes, this is your movie. If not, not.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis movie is FAR more like Stillmanu0026#39;s others (Metropolitan and Barcelona) than like anything youu0026#39;ve seen about disco – which is simply the background. I was surprised that these yuppie characters were so freely admitted to Studio 54 (the set of the film), but perhaps it indicates discou0026#39;s waning popularity by the early 1980s. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI enjoyed it very much – but itu0026#39;s not everyoneu0026#39;s cup of tea.”
