Withnail & I: Pour Decisions Week at FOMO

Tuesday 21. July at 21:00 - 22:47

FOMO Secret Cinema, Tbilisi

One bad decision. One last round. One night that spirals completely out of control.

This week we're celebrating cinema's greatest tales of intoxication, addiction, excess, reckless behaviour and spectacular self-destruction. From cult comedies and chaotic bachelor parties to psychological breakdowns and unforgettable hangovers, this week's films prove that alcohol never solves anything… except giving us incredible movies.


WITHNAIL & I

Bruce Robinson | 1987 | United Kingdom | 1h47m | English language with English subtitles

Few films have captured the romance, absurdity, and sheer misery of alcoholism quite like WITHNAIL AND I. Since its release in 1987, Bruce Robinson's cult classic has become one of the most quoted British films ever made, inspiring generations of devoted fans with its unforgettable dialogue, endlessly rewatchable performances, and unique blend of comedy and melancholy.

Set in the final days of the 1960s, the film follows two unemployed actors sharing a filthy Camden flat. Permanently broke, permanently drunk, and surviving on whatever alcohol they can find, Withnail and his friend Marwood escape London for what they hope will be a peaceful holiday in the English countryside. Unsurprisingly, almost everything that can go wrong does.

Over the course of the film, Withnail consumes around nine and a half glasses of red wine, thirteen whiskies, six glasses of sherry, cider, ale, gin, and even a shot of lighter fluid. The tally became so infamous that fans later created the legendary "Withnail drinking game," challenging themselves to keep pace with the film's relentless alcohol consumption.

Beneath the humour lies a poignant story about friendship, ambition, and the fear of being left behind. As the optimism of the 1960s fades, the film quietly becomes a farewell to youth, capturing that uneasy moment when dreams begin colliding with reality.

If you enjoy the awkward humour of The Office, the sharp dialogue of Martin McDonagh, or the bittersweet character studies of Alexander Payne, WITHNAIL AND I is essential viewing. Equal parts hilarious, heartbreaking, and endlessly quotable, it remains one of Britain's greatest cult films and one of cinema's most unforgettable portraits of intoxication.
