A book on who drinks what in American movies?

by Eve Lejeune » Thu Feb 22, 2007 8:47 am

Hello,

Would you know a book or books on how wine and food were represented in American movies? I mean, we all saw Humphrey Bogart drinking whisky, Sue Ellen asking for "a glass of white wine" in Dallas... I would be curious to know if such a book exists. There is one in French but it relates only to French and European movies - not the major part of the industry as far as I know!

Thanks for your help.

Cheers, Eve

Hi Eve,

Here's a good bibliography of books and articles on Drugs and Alcohol in the movies.

I especially liked http://www.mcfarlandpub.com/book-2.php? ... 864-2633-0

I went through a couple of these references, including the book, for my collection of wine quotes.

Regards, Bob
