Speaking of chemistry! Julianne Moore plays Maude, a whip-smart redhead feminist with a thing for, well. Jesus would later get his own spin-off movie-a friend told me about this while we were watching, and I didn’t believe him.
#THE DUDE ABIDES MOVIE#
Thus begins one of the weirdest capers I’ve ever watched, complete with ransom notes, a severed toe, pornstars and German kidnappers.īridges’ on-screen chemistry with John Goodman and Steve Buscemi as The Dude’s bowling buddies makes for wonderful, cringe-worthy moments during the trio’s bowling tournaments, including quite possibly the best scene in the movie with a rival bowler named Jesus (John Turturro). They give him swirlies in the toilet bowl and demand, “Where’s the money, Lebowski?” The Dude has no idea what’s going on, of course, and only after they destroy his apartment and piss on his rug, they realize that they’ve got the wrong Jeff Lebowski. The Dude (Jeff Bridges), a rugged Californian stoner with a matchingly decrepit apartment, gets home one night to an ambush by two thugs. This 1998 Coen Brothers classic is a must-see, and I was kind of ashamed that I’d never had the pleasure. Of course, you won’t find a new family-friendly favorite in “The Big Lebowski,” but you’ll definitely find a new (old) favorite to play when the kids are asleep. Sometimes when you’re down and out, it’s just nice to watch a nice family movie about pissing on rugs, German kidnappers, and a case of mistaken identity.
