Nikki Austin looks glamorous. Jim Powers and I, Brotherlove, thought that Nikki’s character, a Beverly Hills house Mom should be a drinker. Originally Jim Powers wanted to go with Champagne.
After taking with him for a while, we decided that a Beverly Hills mom would be a tough, hard ass, even maybe a bitch. We assumed that in her wealthy neighborhood and shark-eat-shark world, our Milf would drink something heavy.
I know from working in the industry 12 years that girls from the south grow up drinking whiskey. So Jim South and I chose a more classy upscale version, and had Nikki Austin drink Scotch. It doesn’t get much heavier than that.
As veteran directors, Jim Powers and I decided to use a crystal high-ball glass from the location. We filled it with green tea to mimic the color of Scotch. Over the years we found that keeping the real thing off set would always be best for the production. We are a part of Hollywood after all.
