		Myers plays Steve Rubell, the nightclub impresario who created the Manhattan disco Studio 54 to be the center of the party universe in the closing years of a party decade.
		Rubell presides over his kingdom in a heavy-lidded barbiturate stupor, cackling in a humorless monotone as he moves among his glitterati guests.
		Rubell is a fascinating character, performed by Myers with a mix of savvy, pathos and self-absorption.

	It Seems Like Yesterday - The Disco Years
		Steve Rubell darts among the faithful, nodding, tapping a shoulder, scanning the crowd with his expert eye for "disco people," selecting the fortunate ones who will be allowed into the inner sanctum tonight.
		But Rubell is backed up by a small army of private security guards, including such awesome physical specimens as "Big George," the seven-foot bouncer who defends the front door with the grim determination of Cerberus at the gates of Hades.
		Who knew Steve Rubell?" But, she adds triumphantly, "they all knew me." Her triumph is all the more succulent since D'Alessio had not only to draw her glittering crowd to Studio 54 but also to lure them away from Regine's, New York's most highly touted watering hole until Studio 54 came along.

	54 / **1/2 (1998) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)*
		Steve Rubell, the owner of studio 54, spent every night outside his disco hand-picking who got to go into it, and those he picked had to be beautiful physically.
		Studio 54 was at the brink of death in the 1980s, but since Rubell was long gone by then, the movie only explores the wild years, when the balconies were the spots for couples to engage in intercourse and the basement was the place where celebrities hung out.
		Rubell himself was severely drugged out most of the time, and considered the attendants at his disco the members his one and only 'family.' Then, when the winter holidays of 1979 arrived, it seemed like everything began to crumble.

		Rubell went from steakhouse owner to the toast of the disco world to jail in just a few years - all fueled by his close-to-cruel sense of style.
		Rubell is the guy who stood outside the club and hand-picked the ''everyday'' common folk who would be allowed to dance shoulder-to-shoulder with the top celebrities of the day.
		All Rubell's bluster was a cover for his own insecurity, and it proved to be his undoing, as he literally begged the IRS to catch him.

		The main problem with his game, Rubell said, was that "I was always looking around to see what; was going on around me"--a tendency familiar to anyone who ever tried to have a conversation with him in public, much less at Studio 54.
		A short time after graduation, Rubell entered the restaurant business, opening eateries, mostly in New York City, that catered to the type of people who would later be armed away at, Studio.
		It is easy now to see Rubell's aversion to asserting his gayness 'as cowardly, but in one sense that would be to miss what the Studio 54 "moment" was all al)out.

		Although the Rubell family art collection, which features some of the edgiest work and most important contemporary work of the last 30 years, is not on any tourist maps of Miami’s finest attractions, the Northwest 29th Street building with the caged entrance attracts an average of 200 visitors per week.
		Much to their credit, the Rubells did not use their wealth, largely inherited from the 1989 AIDS-related death of Don’s brother, Studio 54 co-creator Steve Rubell, to do the obvious as new collectors and buy expensive, universally-acclaimed works by the masters.
		Today, the Rubell collection, almost invariably bought from the artists at the earliest stages of their careers, is celebrated in art circles around the world.

		The gatekeeper of the club was its owner, Steve Rubell, who guarded the gate, letting only the most beautiful people into the club.
		Rubell is a character very different from Myers' previous comedic roles in movies such as Austin Powers and Wayne's World.
		In one scene, Myers does show that he is capable of serious acting by conveying the wide-eyed wonder combined with the loneliness and paranoia of Steve Rubell.

	Untitled Document
		Steve Rubell's unforgettable Studio 54 was the flash before the AIDS epidemic - a glitzy night on the town, where the owner managed the door and where it seemed every star showed up at least once.
		It's most likely amibitious as Boogie Nights akin; the problem is 54 never avoids its trite bromides - most of the reels are banal sentiments of lude scenes that are left untouched by convincing drama.
		O'Shea's descent is a predicted and marketable one; the story would have been completely cannular without it, but the tragedy lies in Steve Rubell, a surprisingly accurate performance by Mike Myers, enough vehemence and intensity to leave you in a plausible wake of Rubell's empty aspiration for wealth.

		Studio 54 was a Babylonian den of overindulgence, the disco to end all discos, and while the movie certainly captures the superlative fervor and allure of the club, it fails to do anything with it.
		His story is similar to Shane's, and far more interesting for two reasons: 1) The intrinsically gauche Rubell turned into an emotionally void monster who brazenly cheated the government and took joy in demeaning people he didn't let in the club, and 2) his story is true.
		His version of Rubell is a veiled caricature, but he could have carried the movie, given the chance.
