14 Epic Movie Drinking Games You Must Play Before You Die
5. Withnail & I - Drink With Withnail
The Game: Any time Richard E. Grant's title character drinks, drink with him, preferably the exact same beverage.
Recommended Alcohol: Throughout the movie, Withnail drinks wine, cider, sherry, scotch and gin. That's without even counting the lighter fluid, which is commonly substituted with vinegar by fans of the game.
Difficulty Level: If you attempted to drink the sheer amount that Withnail does, this would be a 10/10 (as he drinks the alcoholic equivalent of about 25-30 beers over the course of the 107 minute movie).
The only realistic (not to mention fun) way to play is to simply have the aforementioned drink types (wine, cider, sherry etc) pre-poured and lined up when the movie starts, and merely take a healthy swig of the corresponding one whenever Withnail drinks it.
You'll still pound through a ton of booze and mixing the drinks will make it only worse, but at least you won't need your stomach pumped at the local A&E. 9.5/10
