“A genial spoof of life on the unhinged margins of L.A. that’s a lot more carefully constructed than it pretends to be.”

ABOUT THE FILM: The plot of this Raymond Chandler-esque comedy crime caper from the Coen Brothers pivots around a case of mistaken identity complicated by extortion, double-crosses, deception, embezzlement, sex, pot, and White Russians. Jeff "The Dude" Lebowski (Jeff Bridges) is content in his laid-back Los Angeles lifestyle. He enjoys hanging with his bowling buddies; pompous security-store owner Walter Sobchak (John Goodman) and mild-mannered ex-surfer Donny (Steve Buscemi). However, the Dude's life takes a turn when two goons break into his bungalow, rough him up, and urinate on his living room rug. Suddenly, The Dude has to go to uncover a mystery that goes deeper than he could have imagined.
