COCKTAIL

Tom Cruise, Bryan Brown, Elisabeth Shue

Touchstone Pictures; Directed by Roger Donaldson

Rated R; 104 minutes; 1988

Ambitious but out-of-work stockbroker Brian Flanagan (Tom Cruise) is forced to take a job as a New York bartender. Soon, with the help of seasoned pro Doug Coughlin (Bryan Brown), Brian finds his niche as a "star" on the club circuit pouring (and juggling) drinks and putting on his 150-proof killer smile for the prettiest women on Manhattan's Upper East Side.

REVIEWS

"Totally entertaining! A glitzy, flashy, tour-de-force for Tom Cruise."
