ⓘ Reaches the parts that other beers can't reach Il s'agit du slogan d'une série de publicités pour la bière Heineken pendant les années 70 dans lesquelles la bière était censée conférer des pouvoirs spéciaux à ceux qui la consommaient. Aujourd'hui on utilise encore cette formule ("atteint les parties que les autres bières ne peuvent atteindre"), en remplaçant le mot beers par un autre pour décrire les qualités de quelque chose de façon humoristique. On dira par exemple she makes tea that reaches the parts that other tea cannot reach ("elle fait du thé vraiment excellent"), ou this tour reaches the parts of Scotland that others don't ("ce circuit touristique explore les coins d'Écosse que les autres ignorent").

7 be out of the picture

1) не соответствовать; дисгармонировать, выпадать из общего тона; см. тж. be in the picture

They no longer thought so much that their own dress was picturesque; they merely thought that his dress was out of the picture... (G. K. Chesterton, ‘The Return of Don Quixote’, ch. XIV) — Они уже не думали о своих довольно живописных одеждах; они видели только его костюм, который был чрезвычайно экстравагантен...

"Old Forsyte" was sitting precisely as if alone in the world... he seemed to Michael quite fascinatingly detached; and yet not out of the picture. (J. Galsworthy, ‘The White Monkey’, part III, ch. XII) — "Старый Форсайт" сидел, точно он был один на свете... Майклу страшно понравился его вид - абсолютно независим и все-таки не выпадает из общего тона.

At first, he had promised to take Daphne to the ball as a sort of duty, and to let Wally O'Brien know he could not play fast and loose with her. Then, when Wally was out of the picture, he wanted to make the ball some sort of compensation and defence for Daphne. (K. S. Prichard, ‘Winged Seeds’, ch. VI) — Сначала он чуть ли не по обязанности пообещал Дафне пойти с ней в Горное училище - ему хотелось, чтобы Уолли О'Брайен знал, что с Дафной нельзя обращаться как с игрушкой. А потом, когда Уолли перестал уже занимать его, Билл пришел к заключению, что надо постараться превратить этот бал в своего рода реванш для Дафны; кроме того, пусть все видят, что девушку есть кому защитить.

...the reason for my not going back to research is that I've lost confidence; I feel I'm out of the picture. (J. Lindsay, ‘All on the Never-Never’, ch. 30) —...причиной того, что я не вернулся к научно-исследовательской работе, была потеря веры в себя. Я не соответствую своему назначению.
