When AMC was swank, baby

I came across this great "Martini Minute" promo AMC aired back in 1998. It was part of a cross-promotion the movie channel did with the excellent Capitol Records, Ultra-Lounge compilation CDs (which I love). I don't remember thinking much about the ads back then (or even really noticing them), but they sure seem coo-coo (Rat Pack slang, essentially meaning "cool"), now. I was no doubt affected subliminally by them.

I knew there had to be a way!




rinse, repeat

Whatever, white people!




And this is a promo for AMC's "Martini Months Sweepstakes," complete with Jimmy Stewart ogling a babe in a bikini:
