pepcycle Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I recently watched "High Crimes" with Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman. Freeman falls off the wagon in a motel room with two hookers and a witness he's trying to get info from. They drink bourbon, but I can't tell what it is. I didn't watch from the set with the DVR. Anyone know what it was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickAtMartinis Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I was watching a Bio on Evel Knievel and he would do a shot of Wild Turkey before each jump. Not quite the movies but, heck we all saw him on television. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gothbat Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I know it's not bourbon but I spy a bottle of Four Roses Blended in Zombie Holocaust (aka Dr. Butcher M.D.) during the scene where Lori and Dr. Chandler discuss the expedition to Kito.

PAspirit1 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I caught the tail end of Funny Farm with Chevy chase the other day. By the end he is really derailing and drinking Dickel strait from the bottle. Is that what they mean by medicinal purposes?I watched about 20 minutes of Factotum and I saw Old Fitzgerald twice and an order for two bottles of Evan Williams. There might be a lot of whiskey in that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskeyhatch Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 'There Will Be Blood.' Saw this one yesterday and wow! Another brilliant work by P. T. Anderson. Daniel Day-Lewis did an absolutely amazing job. I think that this film may have broken the mold of modern day cinema. It's like standing before a Picasso, Miro or a Rothko. It's challenging. It excersises the emotions. It's like Kafka on screen. I wish that I had not read anything about it before I saw it because it would have had even more of an impact. Therefore, I won't say anything else other than: there was a lot of bourbon consumed in this movie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiskeyhatch Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I haven't read it but I understand that Anderson's movie is a very loose adaptation of Oil!. I believe that the book was more of an inspiration. (Perhaps a testament to Anderson's writing abilities.) Yeah, 'No Country for Old Men' is next on my list. I'm looking forward to that one.

OscarV Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I have not read the book but in No Country For Old Men the psyco-killer is maybe a ghost or some sort of super natural being. In the movie there is only one scene where this idea is possible. Don't worry I have not ruined it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACDetroit Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 There is a movie on Encore right now about Black Fraternities and Steppin groups.

TNbourbon Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Has anyone been able to make out what the bourbon is in Casablanca, in the scene when Rick is meeting Ferrrari in the marketplace? I'm watching it again now, and it looks like the last part might say "Hill", but that's impressionistic more then literal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razerburnt Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Not a movie but I was watching Law and Order, the original, tonite and Briscoe and Green were at a writers house to ask him questions. The guy offered them a drink, gin...scotch...vodka then said he was having a bourbon and grabbed a bottle of Makers Mark.Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILLfarmboy Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 In the 1971 cult classic Two Lane Blacktop, Warren Oats, who's character is known only as GTO, can be seen filling a large flask with Jack. The bottle isn't displayed prominently and if your eyes aren't glued to the screen you'll miss it. The scene is made more memorable by the fact he gets pretty trashed and after sleeping it off walks into a diner and orders an Alka-Selzer and a hamburger.

dcb Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 maybe it's been mentioned already but we watched the Big Lebowski for the hundredth time the other night and I think I spotted a Wild Turkey in Maude's "bar". Looked like a Glenmorangie tube in the back as well, but the DVD image is quite grainy so hard to be sure of either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNbourbon Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I bought the now-near-defunct HD-DVD during last fall's Wal-Mart $99 sale, figuring, at worst, I'd get a decent upgrade from my previous low-cost player. Now, I'm cherry-picking the remains of HD-DVD discs while they disappear. Am watching "Top Gun" ($14.95 at Target) right now.This has nothing to do with bourbon, except that I'm drinking some (Parker's HC/122.6 proof) -- and I don't know how anyone else feels about it -- but when that opening scene comes on and they're playing "Danger Zone" while that aircraft carrier deck crew gets planes aboard, it gives me chills every times. Because they're out there really doing it, all the time.God bless 'em!:toast:By the way, I have the last flight formation of the F-14 before moth-balling saved to disk somewhere. What an awesome airplane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gothbat Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 In George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead the professor takes bottle of Maker's Mark into the panic room. During the first 1/2 of the movie he drinks from a flask several times and mentions bourbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gothbat Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Not a movie and not a bourbon but it's related, Mr Talbot gets a pour of George Dickel on the house after loosing his job as prison executioner in the first episode of HBO's Tales From the Crypt, The Man Who Was Death.

trumpstylz Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Not sure if it has already been posted, but Billy Bob Thorton's drink of choice is a shot of old grand dad in the movie Bad Santa. The movie is absolutely hysterical (but very "tasteless"). If any of you guys have seen it, it really fits BBT's character (just based on the general public's perception of OGD: its a little rough around the edges). Also: Old Forrester. at the end of the movie Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, there is a bottle of Old Forester in the background. It is another hysterical movie, but you must follow it closely. Just make sure you get the American version with Robert Downey JR and Val Kilmer because the original is a French movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighTower Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Billy Bob Thorton's drink of choice is a shot of old grand dad in the movie Bad Santa. A shot of OGD? Most of the movie he's sucking it straight outta the bottle.I love that movie...I always watch it countless times at Christmas, just to get me in the spirit of things:lol:Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trumpstylz Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 also: in the show seinfeld, the "dinner party" episode from i think the fourth season (if not, its the third or fifth). Anyways, There's a big display of WT 101, and I'm pretty sure thats what george knocks over with his overly large puffed up "gore tex" coat.

HipFlask Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I don't know if someone got this already but in the Bond movie Goldeneye. James Bond meets with the new M character. She offers him a drink. Bond tells her that person that was in her position before her always kept Cognac in his desk and she responds that she prefers Bourbon, and then pours some out of a glass decanter.
