The Big Lebowski

Watch trailer

The Big Lebowski is a cult classic that blends comedy and hard-boiled crime into a higher unity. We follow "The Dude" on an absurd, chaotic, and hysterically funny journey into the Los Angeles underworld.

Jeffrey "The Dude" Lebowski (Jeff Bridges) is a laid-back, unemployed bowling enthusiast who one day is mistakenly identified as a millionaire and attacked by three thugs. The incident leads to a series of complications and encounters with odd characters, all tied together by The Dude's desire to rectify an absurd injustice—the thugs' urination on his precious rug!

The Big Lebowski is a vibrant patchwork of neo-noir and comedy, offering a Coen-esque perspective on American culture. The story offers a maelstrom of severed body parts, German nihilists, high-flying artists, bowling tournaments, and, most importantly, great humor from a cast of actors at the top of their game, including Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, Julianne Moore, and Philip Seymour Hoffman in unforgettable roles.

The Big Lebowski holds a distinctive place in the Coen Brothers' filmography. While it may not have been a massive commercial success upon its initial release in 1998, it has since gained a strong cult following and is often regarded as one of the Coen Brothers' most beloved and iconic films.
