THE BIG LEBOWSKI (1998)

Cast

Plot

A cracking Coen brothers caper with an absolutely magnificent Jeff Bridges as ageing hippy, Jeff "The Dude" Lebowski, happily bumbling through life, which in his case means getting stoned and hanging out at the bowling alley, until his peaceful existence is rudely interrupted by a couple of bungling crooks who visit his apartment late one night and pee on his rug. Realising he's been mistaken for his crippled, millionaire namesake, Jeff visits the real intended victim seeking compensation for the soiled carpet. And that's where the fun really starts, with the Dude being dragged into a complex kidnapping plot which introduces him to an LA far weirder than even he could dream up! Brilliantly shot, superbly scripted, and ridiculously funny. Don't miss it!
