Forty Deuce (2005)

For those in the know, there is a walk-on-the-wild side burlesque club tucked away in Hollywood called Forty Deuce: its name and style pay homage to the glamour days of New York's 42nd Street. The women are sexy, empowered, and their energy is impossible to resist. These are not the performers of modern-day clubs, but trained, professional dancers from a bygone era. In a four-part original series is directed by Zalman King ("Nine 1/2 Weeks," "Red Shoe Diaries"), enter the exclusive world of Ivan Kane and the private lives of this nightlife visionary, his wife and business partner Champagne Suzy, and his dancers - including popular headliner Carolina Cerisola - as Kane aspires to open a new club in Las Vegas' celebrated Mandalay Bay.
