...Bradley's Tavern, once the grandest illegal casino in North America, is now a cheeseball bar that plays '80s hits at supersonic decibels. If you were a Kennedy, you would find your little brother drinking here. After last call at the country club, the true alcoholics of Palm Beach swagger to Club 251. They mingle with B-list stars and failed models turned trophy wives. Hint: pastel pants work best with yellow or orange cashmere cardigans. More traditional spring break nightlife can be found at the six "original" Irish pubs dotting Clementis Street (see restaurants...

...project like this? Sporting his grim been-to-hell-and-back look, Woods is filled with an inner intensity that boils out onto the screen.
