The Big Lebowski – What to Watch Before You Die

“The Dude Abides.” Unless you haven¹t seen The Big Lebowski, in which case, make yourself a White Russian, man, and get to it. Subscribe – http://goo.gl/9AGRm

The Big Lebowski is one of the best Coen Brothers movies (though Fargo, and No Country of Old Men and O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Raising Arizona are also classics). But The Big Lebowski was a case of perfect casting, with Jeff Bridges as The Dude, and Julianne Moore, Philip Seymour Hoffman, John Tuturro, John Goodman and Tara Reid turning in great performances in supporting roles.

It’s a film that has an unlikely lasting cultural impact. It’s endlessly quotable, it ignited a generation¹s taste for White Russians, and the Dude¹s laid-back philosophy actually inspired a real-life religion. Plus, people gather in cities across the world for Lebowski Fest. Quite an impact for a movie about a guy and his bowling buddies trying to get revenge for his ruined rug.

Have you seen The Big Lebowski? How many times? What¹s your favorite quote or scene? Did we inspire you to whip up a White Russian, or hit the bowling lanes? Are you going walk around the rest of the day saying “the Dude Abides” or ask people to call you El Duderino? What¹s your favorite movie of all time that you think everyone should watch?
