The cocktail owes its widespread fame to the art of cinema. The drink made its screen debut in 1934, in a romantic comedy called Skinny. But the true laurels came a year later, when Dry Martini brilliantly played himself in a glass of Clark Gable and his partner Constance Bennett in After Work. Since then, he has become a regular guest at any feast. How to cook and drink Martini Dry?
