Favorite drinking scene in film?

All 100 minutes of Barfly

>>212907023 (OP)
It's not film but when Dennis and Charlie start drinking to the tune of Glory Days at the charity event in The Gang Gets Stranded in the Woods always makes me want a beer, and I don't even drink anymore.

My favorite drinking clip from any movie ever

Mad Men Season 1

>>212907023 (OP)
what was his problem?

>>212907336
He was still in Saigon

the scene where i drink whiskey in the movie real life

Sideways has a great way of looking at all the great things and all the darks things about drinking. I love this scene because I never know whether it means closure for Miles or whether he's just being a petulant ass as usual.

>>212907361
sorry bud I already got the call, they casted me and I'm actually performing a take at this very second

>>212907023 (OP)
Off the top of my head I choose Gene Wilder’s introduction in Blazing Saddles

>>212907361
That's a good one, but I've seen it way too many times myself.

>>212907336
Shell shock

>>212907376
Scene made me cry. Thinking about it I saw it as his peak of sadness with notes of happiness in that he gave up on being sopshisticated and had fast food something simple to go with the wine meant to improve any day.

>>212907361
Hopefully the movie is better than the novelization, I gave up half way through out of boredom

Wooley Bully scene from Animal House

Only clip of the movie I could find, but Lost Weekend is classic druk

I think it's closure in the form of surrender, finally accepting he's not gonna be a great novelist or have anything else he thought, that he has a fate and it's being a schoolteacher, and maybe that babe will forgive him for lying.

God, it's the most depressing film I've ever seen.

>>212907376
>whether it means closure for Miles or whether he's just being a petulant ass as usual.
He's specifically been saving his prized 61 Cheval Blanc for a special occasion with
the right person. All throughout the film the analogy between wine and life has been made and when Miles tells Maya he's saving that wine she tells him those wines are peaking. He's just been told by his ex-wife, the woman he still loved and had hoped to rekindle with, that she is pregnant to her new husband. By drinking his prized wine at that time Miles is conceding his life has peaked. His novel is a failure and will not be published, his best friend is marrying and will be less available and become more distant, his newest romance wants nothing to do with him and the woman he loved has definitively moved on with her life leaving him behind. There are no more happy days, no special occasions to look forward to. Only inevitable death so might as well drink that wine and wait for death. And then he gets a call from Maya.

The "To life" scene in 'Fiddler on the roof'. The men may have their differences, but they bond over booze.

>>212907562
Looks good. Gonna watch this tomorrow.

>>212907687
>>212907706
This is why this is my favorite scene about booze.

And yeah, I think it's about him giving up. But there's some question whether it means he's moving on a person.

Nick Cage in Mandy

>>212907857
this is a good one, I like the romantic idea of getting absolutely blitzed after a traumatic experience and then just coming out the other side reborn by the hangover

>>212907824
I think it's both. Giving up on the fantasy and accepting the one path remaining.

I'm at the same point in my life. I thought I would win.

That scene in Mandy when nic cage got wasted in whiskey and decided to get that big giant sword was mega kino

>>212908138
He wasn't drinking anything in this scene.

for me it's this one, great acting from both

>>212907023 (OP)
The one where i never wake up from blacking out

this scene in Johnny Eager where drunken alcoholic Van Heflin tries to end their friendship.

>>212907420
If he had shell shock he wouldn’t have gone back. He was just a northeast kid who threw his life away.

>>212908532
is that the rare /tv/ approved fag Mr. V. Price on the right?

STOP THE SHIP!

>>212908635
No anon, that’s Robert Taylor.

>>212908723
the way he slides the foam off and taps that little tool dry is seared into my memory

>>212907824
>But there's some question whether it means he's moving on a person.
You're free to your own interpretation but I certainly don't see it that way. I think moving on as a person would mean that he could have spent time with Victoria and been happy for her. He cannot. He immediately retreats, abandoning his best friend at his wedding despite being his best man. I think of it as an acceptance that his life has peaked and his life is entering its bleak, winter period, hence why the very next scene has him listening to a student reading the funeral scene from A Separate Peace, mirroring his own circumstances. I think had Maya not called he would've given up on life. That wonderful moment is so full of optimism and forgiveness that cuts through the bleakness of what preceded it and I think him seizing upon that to go and see her is indicative of him being willing to move on, come what may, but when he's drinking that wine he has given up on life and he's more or less drinking at his own wake.

>>212908138
This. Man, he really sells that first sip of bourbon.

>>212908723
>beer made at that time
>perfectly clear and carbonated

>>212909008
do you know about this? I'm actually curious. I know brewing was preatty modernized by the late 19th century but I don't remember when exactly django takes place. What was beer like before that? I know in the middle ages it was more of like a thick broth

>>212909008
It's okay, he's German.

>>212907023 (OP)
The World's End when Gary drinks the leftover unfinished beers as they're leaving the bar and when Andrew takes all the shots when he finds out shit has hit the fan.

>>212907023 (OP)
The scene in Pelle the Conqueror where Max von Sydow gets drunk is one of the best acted scenes in cinema history

>>212909733

scenes like this always play out like pornos in my mind where like 3 of the dudes are just stuck jerking off since there are only so many holes to use on the only girl there

Jim Lahey was actually the best onscreen drunk now that I think about it. RIP John Dunsworth.

>>212913879
Seconded. No one comes closer.

>>212907291
He who makes a beast of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man.

Get to drink two more days because the pharmacy was out of withdrawl meds i thought would sqve me after I got out of the hospital today.

>>212913486
The movie is called The Dark Corner btw. A nice little film noir. I think it's public domain so it would be easy to find it

>>212914222
I tried Librium, it’s nice for sleep but you’ll feel groggy the entire next day. I don’t think you need drugs, just tapering.

>>212914222
>withdrawal meds
what a fucking pussy. severe hallucinations are the best part.

>>212914222
Forgot to check those trips
Just ggmaxx and start a rock n roll revolution bro

5 months sober. I miss druk threads even though I barely remember what I was posting at the time.

I miss drinking so much. I would drink to Barfly two nights a week in my lonely days.

>>212907376
A picture of the TV set. Terrible. lol, and you named it 'capture' even.

do commercials count?

>>212909733
Here's to your fuck.

of course @reddi/tv/ barely posts Trees Lounge

in a state of drinking to a newer oblivion yet again and i must share a scene that is so silly but apt for not me however but an old friend who mimics the movements and attitudes of Joe BUck in teh scenene where he first comes to NY and meets Ratso in the bar and he starts givign away his mission to the true hustler Ratso just as the bewitching man in a dress shows up and tries to break the spell but my buddy aka Joe Buck displays surface level drunk awareness and falls for Ratsos disguised adventurous and advantages whims

you fags are truly worse than dudeweedbros. there is nothing more pathetic than (You).

Best drinking movie ever, don’t let your enemy draw you out.

>>212915341
>When he climbs up on the table to take a nap
Relatable kino.

>>212915421
That was the worst of the Bukowski kinos, Factotum was excellent imo.
Did you ever read his books? I read Women at 26 and it really helped me in dating, understanding the fairer sex or whatever.

I'd be surprised if this thing isn't stolen within a week.

>>212909059
the only difference is filtration (beer straight from brewing is cloudy from the yeast that gets filtered later if you want)
beer is naturally carbonated through fermentation

holy kino

>>212908154
best drinking film ever made. comfy, funny, great soundtrack, great acting. impossible not to have a good time watching this during some shitty weather with some wine and whisky

>>212915341

All great choices. I'd add Sterling Hayden's very method performance in The Long Goodbye.

>>212907400
As kids me and my brother used to laugh our asses off at the loud gulping and sucking noises he made with the bottle. Happy days (clink)....

Kino of the highest caliber.

Mel Gibson in Beyblade.

I drank 11 nips of Johnnie Walker black label last night. I have one left for tonight and thats all the alcohol i can afford to drink today because i have work in the morning tomorrow. Ill pick up a dozen more on the way home tomorrow. I was so drunk last night that i spilled some on my desk twice.

Hey that's the Sam Hyde ratio

>>212916255

i can't imagine Matt Dillon as Bukowski/Chinaski, he's too good-looking

Withnail and I is pure kino

Leaving Las Vegas is a good portrayal of a drunkard, and the one film that made me like Nic Cage

This. Nothing like getting hammered deep into the night, putting this on and having the sun rise outside just as it does at the end of the movie. Absolute kino

>>212927613
I never heard this. But it would stand to reason. Dude was an expert drinker.

good for you, anon, keep it up

>I've been to prison once. I've been married twice. I was once drafted by Lyndon Johnson and had to live in shit-ass Mexico for two and a half years for no reason. I've had my eye socket punched in, a kidney taken out, and I got a bone-chip in my ankle that's never gonna heal. I've seen some pretty shitty situations in my life, but nothing has ever sucked more ass than this. If I'd known I was gonna have to put up with screaming brats pissing on my lap for 30 days out of the year, I would have killed myself a long time ago. Come to think of it, I still might.

>Where I come from, we didn't celebrate Christmas. Not because we were Jewish, but because my dad was a worthless-coward fucking asshole whose idea of a present was a daily punch to the back of the head. He did teach me how to crack a safe, though. My dad never did shit with his life, so he took it out on me. You could say I'm no different. I'd have to say you were right. But at this point, it's too late to start over. Funny how things work out. It's fucking hilarious.
