Film noir virtuoso, mixologist and writer Eddie Muller sets the stage for his lifelong passion of storytelling and cultural conversations.

He reveals his and his wife’s secret to finding the perfect eatery and their favorite cocktail bar. Eddie opens up about the film that sparked his love for film noir and compelled him to explore the shadowy genre. He explains the important impact European filmmakers had on Hollywood when they emigrated to the states, defining the crucial themes and timeless qualities of the distinct genre. He covers interesting truths about the world’s eagerness for a darker, more relatable genre and how it has influenced different countries and generations. Eddie shares the significant role cocktails and lounges have in society and film, revealing a few personal stories about strangers turned close friends over drinks. The former bartender and forever mixologist opens up about his inspiration, intent and process of creating his cocktail book. He teases the self-invented and film inspired cocktails readers can find in his book along with insightful stories about their origin films’ writers, movie treatment and main characters. Then Eddie reveals his biggest pet peeve and the wrong way to order a drink. He shares his favorite recipe, go-to theater snack and best writing advice. Finally, he rates his cooking skills and unpacks his “death house meal” with delicious drink pairings.
