Join us as, inspired by Thomas Vinterberg's 'Another Round', we delve into alcohol in movies. We begin by exploring the films that best capture the yearning for a drink such as the classic 1958 war film 'Ice Cold in Alex', and the films that made iconic a certain drink (e.g. 'The Big Lebowski' and White Russians). We then move on to examine films that best capture the giddy highs of complete inebriation such as the 1978 Jackie Chan kung fu classic 'Drunken Master' and 'Withnail & I'. We end by discussing films that tackle the lows of alcohol, the crushing hangovers, and the horrors of alcoholism, such as the 1971 psychological thriller 'Wake in Fright' and the seminal 1945 film 'The Lost Weekend'. So, pour yourself a drink, and settle in for an hour of booze and movies chat.
