In 'Drinking from the Cinema', José Luis Garci invites us on a cinematographic journey through the drinks that have accompanied the characters on the big screen. The author rescues from the cinema, that intoxication in the shadows, those drinks that illuminate our short earthly residence. Garci talks about cocktails, placing each one of them in its context and in the hand that deserves it. An itinerary through cities, bars and characters that is strictly exciting. This edition commemorates the 20th anniversary of the book.
