Movie / drink connections

Ok so aside from the obvious ( such as - Sideways / wine), what movies make you think about or want to drink a specific drink while watching them.

I'll get started:

The Big Lebowski - White Russians

The Twilight Movies - Bloody mary (hey it was my GF's birthday so I caved in and watched one with her.Thank goodness for alcohol. )

    The Big Sleep -- rye from a hip flask.

    The Thin Man -- about 40 martinis

              i would have guessed twilight movies would make you want to bust out the 151 LH and start doing shots ;p

                Maybe some moonshine so I could go blind and not have to see that one guy with his shirt off any more.

                  when i saw moonshine mentioned, the first movie connection that i made was deliverance, and that was not pleasant.
                  just to be fair, i don't remember if anyone drank moonshine in that movie, but my mind just went there
