At the end of the last century, cinema took a turn, it went a little to the left and just kept on going...
as such, we now have a generation of people obsessed with the 'religion' of The Dude!
This particular Coen brothers opus is singularly responsible for a vast up shoot in the sales of 'White Russian' cocktails.
Told initially in narration by Sam Elliot, we are introduced to Jeffrey Lebowski, or as we will soon come to love him...The Dude, a man who allows nothing to hurry, influence or disturb his love of the slow life, albino beverages and bowling.
I won't be delving further into a review of this film, simply because to do so would only detract from an 'experience' all should enjoy.
If you haven't seen it, I'm surprised, but I also envy you. Thankfully, repeated viewings of this masterpiece do nothing to dwindle or diminish this thrill.
Cast: Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, Julianne Moore, Peter Stormare, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Tara Reid.
Line of the film? "I told those fucks down at the league office thousand times that I don't roll on Shabbos!"
