Cocktail (1988)
Brian Flanagan is a former soldier who wants to be a businessman and even millionaire. He waits while he studies for his degree and serves drinks in a New York City bar. Doug Coughlin is a charismatic bartender and cynic who becomes Brian’s mentor. Their chemistry and the bar’s outrageous tricks will quickly bring them fame and fortune until their split. Flanagan is now trying to find money in Jamaica for his dream bar, but he finds himself falling hard for Jordan Mooney (a struggling waitress), while an eminent fashion executive wishes to bring him home to Manhattan. Are there any futures for Brian and Jordan? –Nick Riganas
