Clive Owen and Julia Roberts

Clive Owen and Julia Roberts play a pair of international champagne-loving corporate spies in the new movie Duplicity that opened March 20.
Apparently champagne is the drink of choice among international corporate spies. That’s one of the take-away’s from Duplicity, a new romantic thriller starring Clive Owen and Julia Roberts. They’re former government spies carrying on a secret romance while playing out a high-stakes game of corporate espionage. The pair meets in Dubai, but the romance takes off with an extended tryst in what appears to be a luxury suite at the St. Regis Grand Hotel in Rome (it’s really a space at Convent of Sacred Heart in NYC). The champagne — mostly the bold Moet Grand Vintage Brut and off-dry White Star — keeps flowing in London and Miami, with champagne corks becoming a signal for a rendezvous.
