Out of Those Wet Clothes and Into a Dry Martini

- A Charles Butterworth Witty Cocktail Guide

Bag om Out of Those Wet Clothes and Into a Dry Martini

An irrepressible character actor with a wit as dry as a martini in the Gobi Desert, Charles Butterworth played the leading man's charmingly daffy sidekick in screwball comedies throughout the 1930s - a decade he spent almost constantly inebriated, both on-screen and off. Out of Those Wet Clothes and Into a Dry Martini (the title inspired by his most famous one-liner) provides an intoxicating look at this nearly-forgotten master of the comic quip and cynical aside through his preferred lens - the bottom of a glass. This delicious compendium offers up an entertaining profile of Butterworth, hilarious excerpts from his movies, and a whimsical assortment of rare-and-rediscovered cocktail recipes from the watering holes of vintage Hollywood.
