...rushed.” With any other director, the quip might have been left on the cutting room floor, but with its inclusion, Soderbergh breaks down cliche and gives himself licence to stretch the bounds of convention. Dusty avoids the Rat Pack’s liquid lunch of scotch and soda and instead spoons yogurt by the crateful, and Linus munches antacid tablets like they’re candy—neither are prototypical two-bit hoods...
...Business of Strangers, starring Stockard Channing, Julia Stiles and a bottle of scotch, Paula Murphy (Stiles) tells Julie Styron (Channing) that many pornos are actually directed by women, not men—the only real difference is less sex and more foreplay.

...Churchill was whatever is fitness's opposite. Bush has forsworn the demon drink; when Churchill stayed with Roosevelt in the White House over Christmas 1941, he instructed Roosevelt's butler that he needed a tumbler of sherry in his room before breakfast, a couple of glasses of Scotch and soda before lunch, and French champagne and 90-year-old brandy before he went to sleep. About the only thing they have in common goes between the lips; very occasionally, Bush sneaks out on the Truman balcony of the White House and enjoys a cigar...
