The film Glass Onion references not only the Beatles song of the same name, but other songs from the White Album.
The first time we meet Ed Norton's character he is playing Blackbird on a guitar.
The Beatles themselves were on very good terms with The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band, Paul McCartney produced some of their studio albums, and they are the only band, other than the Beatles to play in a Beatles film.
They are the band playing in the strip club in Magical Mystery Tour.
One of the Bonzo's songs is called Big shot, it's a parody of the all American action hero so prevalent in cinema at the time.
In the song the eponymous character meets a woman at a party and delivers the line "Whisky, wow wow."
In the film there is a character called Whiskey, and when Ed Norton meets her, he delivers the line, "Whiskey wow."
I know it's a bit of a stretch, but I have never heard the phrase whisky wow wow,or anything similar anywhere else until watching that film.
