I suppose this cut leaves the promise of a better film. But to be honest I still prefer the guilty pleasure cut that was released in theaters. Centering around a sexy young man played by Ryan Phillippe who discovers the famous club in its hey day and is sucked into the glamorous nightlife becoming a drawing attraction. This version goes a bit more into the dirty details and isn't shy about showing the gay goods. But although there are some solid bits here and there. The movie feels disconnected and confusing. It jumps from scene to scene and doesn't bother trying to make it all make sense. The original cut for better or worse tells a fluid story with themes that come full circle even if it's a bit goofy.
