Cocktail (1988)
An iconic piece of late 1980s pop culture—and a perfect fusion of neon aesthetics, star power, and the aspirational yuppie dream. Own a slice of pure ’80s cinematic swagger with this original U.S. one-sheet for Cocktail—the film that turned bartending into an art form and cemented Tom Cruise as the era’s ultimate Hollywood heartthrob.
Released just two years after Top Gun, Cocktail reinforced Cruise’s role as the emblem of 1980s charisma and masculine idealism. It marked the peak of his “young, cocky, driven outsider” persona, his time flipping jets for a bottle of rum. Set against the backdrop of Reagan-era capitalism and upward mobility, Cocktail captures the period’s ethos: ambition, material success, and aesthetic sophistication. Cruise’s character is a working-class dreamer who turns nightlife into a ticket to financial and romantic gain.
Critically panned but commercially beloved, Cocktail exists in that sweet space of cultural camp and nostalgic reverence. Today, it’s celebrated for exactly what it is: a glossy, stylish, irresistibly watchable time capsule.
