- This was a timeless classic of a film. The Coen Brothers are fantastic top-tier filmmakers. The comedy was sublime, Bridges’ performance as the Dude was stellar and the music and cinematography were just divine! This is easily one of the best comedies of the 90’s, a cult classic and its highly recommended for any adult. The dude approves!

"Jackie Treehorn treats objects like women, man."
Anyone who dislikes this film is a human paraquat.
The Dude has no character arc. The story just washes over him and the Dude abides.
“Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.”
P.S. Love the channel!
Hahahah!
This is one of those movies that gets better with each viewing.
I have yet to find another like it.
You're right. I'm addicted. A Lebowskiholic!
*Video Notification:* "The Big Lebowski: FIRST TIME WATCHING!"
*Me:* Yeah, well...I look forward to hearing, like, your opinions, man.
😂😂
"Has the whole world gone CRAZY?!?" says the man pointing a loaded gun in someone's face over a bowling match. The overly complicated plot was actually done on purpose. The basis for this story was a straight satire of noir mysteries such as Chandler's THE BIG SLEEP (which is where this film gets its name). In such stories the audience is bombarded with information directly related to the plot, most of it wrong and contradictary, with the desired effect of enhanced realism, confusion and fear. The only drawback is that the protagonist has to be extremely competent to sort everything out and save the day, and ends up becoming a cartoon. By complimenting the story structure with a ridiculous plot and a protagonist who is characteristically useless (or at least an unlikely hero), the Coens elevated the satire and created something wholly original, and absolutely hilarious.
Also The Maltese Falcon.
2:35, "it's down there somewhere, let me go get it." Lol!
I saw Jeff Bridges and John Goodman in an interview describing the scene with the crowbar and the fancy red sports car. They did that scene in a real neighborhood and apparently didn't notify the people in the area that they were filming a movie. Goodman said he felt very awkward and bad for doing that, but both were laughing their butts off describing the scene... LOL
There's so many videos but check out Jeff Bridges celebrating John Goodman did (I think his getting a star on Hollywood). The Dude Returns
Redo, it is a celebration of John Goodman getting a star on the Hollywood.
I think the camera crew on a dolly track on the sidewalk and lawn would've cleared things up pretty quick, but they still would've been pissed about the noise at midnight without warning.
This movie is an homage to film noir, which explains the complicated nature of the plot. There's a gullible sucker who gets pulled into a nefarious plot, a couple of femme fatales to distract him, the rich guy with the oily manservant - hell, they've even got the Sidney Greenstreet character in a white suit! It's classic noir, and so of course it must be labyrinthine. :)
We need to get you watching more comedies, your laugh is a cure all tonic to all the bad news in the world.
Yeah, and less corny nostalgic films that don't hold up too well.
Isn't it though?
@@littleboxxes Your username makes me wish there were more of the Shan's of CZcams reacting to Weeds....or anyone.
Raising Arizona!!!!!!
the cure to the bad news is the good news
Peter Stormare was also in Coen Brothers's Fargo and they wrote a role for him in Miller's Crossing, a character called Eddie the Swede, but sadly Stormare had to decline because he was busy doing a broadway play (which I believe was Hamlet) and therefore the character was written out of the movie. I've actually meet him in real life in 2008, he was a guest singer for a 80's rock-esque band and they were playing in my hometown. I was star struck when I saw him! I went up to him, saying I was a big fan of his work and that the best role he ever did was in Fargo, I was trying to explain how great he played his character and all, but I was so nervous. And out of nowhere, he gave me a hug! =D I didn't expect that and in my mind I was like; Oh my god, Peter Stormare is giving me a hug! He's a really nice guy, a real down to earth person =)
Eddie the Dane, and the Coen's just recast the role. I'd suggest you not screw up his name, or maybe you got too many teeth. Man, J. E.Freeman created the most terrifying gangster in cinema - Pesci's Tommy isn't a patch on the Dane.
@@Carandini What's your problem?! I read the character was first called Eddie the Swede because they wanted Stormare in the role, but I guess they changed the name after Stormare declined. Get a life.
Dude, you're making my day with this reaction.
Thank you for watching my man!
4:48, Walter is based on filmmaker John Milius, right down to the wire rim glasses and vest.
And carrying a .45 pistol
I'd say Fargo and The Big Lebowski are the best movies of the Coen brothers.
It's a movie that needs repeated viewings to sink in fully.
I'd put it next to the Princess Bride as one of the most quotable movies of all times.
The acting by Bridges and especially John Goodman was phenomenal.
It's not a laugh loud comedy, Zucker brothers' style, but the quirky characters, situations and the snappy dialogue makes this movie a classic for the ages.
It IS laugh-out-loud.
"OVER THE LINE!!! MARK IT ZERO!!"
"I'm not Mr. Lebowski, you're Mr. Lebowski. I'm the Dude. Can't you at least call me duder, his royal dudeness, El duderino?"
"The bums have lost! The bums have lost!"
Smokey, this is not 'Nam. This is bowling. There are rules.
... Excuse me, I wasn't listening.
I was actually assigned to see this movie in a film class in college. I was already a huge fan of the Coen bros after Fargo. I was actually a little disappointed in the movie at first. But after a couple of more viewings it became one of my favorite flicks of all time. The Coens are absolute geniuses and my favorite writer/director alive today.
Corn brother films demand re-watches. I'm going to watch this again on my own time soon!
Same with me I still consider Fargo superior tho
Actually, the plot being complicated or not is pretty irrelevant, just as life is for an entity like the Dude. Thanks for the reaction, though there are some details you can't catch on the first lecture.
The classical music around 5:39 is Lacrimosa from Mozart's Requiem in D Minor.
what a great film. Youre gonna appreciate the hell out of all the quality filmmaking, story and acting in this one.
One of the best comedies of the 90s man... Just my opinion maaan
@@ShanWatchesMovies I couldnt agree more.
4:16, "The old man told me I can take any rug in the house "
4:26 "That kind of wife..." :D 6:48 I have always liked how ordinary that other guy is.
13:50 That is visually wonderful scene, where he first comes in slowmotion and then says "Hello Dude, thanks for coming. I'm Jackie Treehorn." My favourite scene in the movie.
18:30 It's so funny that now he says the same line for the third time. :D
As Riley would say, "One more time..." This is a re-make of "The Big Sleep," (1946 Dir Hawkes, Story Chandler, Screenplay Faulkner) and the legend around the filming: Hawkes was so confused about the plot he had to call Faulkner while filming. Nice legend, though hard to believe. The Coen's like that stuff.
The “Big Sleep” is an incredible movie, but it is hard to follow.
It wasn't Faulkner--it was Raymond Chandler. The way I heard it, the director called to ask who killed O (a minor character whose full name escapes me.) Chandler thought for a moment and then said, "Beats me."
The Coen's also liked the movie and re-made it. It's obvious.
Yep. I'm pretty sure people find it confusing because they think of it as a comedy instead of as a _noir._
@@jeandoten1510 Chandler wrote the story, Faulkner the Screenplay. That's the legend though-Hawkes, Chandler and Faulkner didn't know what what going on in a movie plot-while filming! Those three were not lightweights.
This movie is a masterpiece, nothing else needs to be said! Also Jeff Bridges made a role that will be remembered for eternity 🙂
Oh man, I hope you keep watching Coen bros movies! O Brother Where Art Thou is absolutely amazing.
19:30 Just remember, Walter(who had been in combat), is a guy you want on your side in a fight.
This is my favorite movie, perhaps all time. So colorful, shot well, amazingly acted, meant for additional viewings. Some of the best story telling I'm my opinion. I'm glad you had such fun watching it.
21:12 When I came back from Iraq, rented this VHS and heard Walter talk about, "Vietnam." I remember thinking, "Walter, the past is the past." I was so young. The past is the past, but only with Bourbon-combat will change you.
“Obviously not a golfer”, perhaps my favourite line in a movie where every line is gold. The script is immaculate, the delivery is note-perfect and it improves with each viewing. Walter Sobchek is just an incredible creation
Is it now time for the Cohen brother's adaptation of Homer's Odyssey, O'Brother, Where Art Thou?
Yes! Great movie
Great music in that one!
For more Jeff Bridges , watch ‘the Fisher King’
I watched someone else reviewing the film and he described it as like a plot keeps trying to form around the Dude, but keeps failing because he's, well, the Dude.
I think people find it confusing because they think of it as a comedy. It's not. It's a classic _noir._ All the elements are there, and it unfolds just like an old _noir._ Certainly _The Maltese Falcon_ wasn't any less confusing than the Dude's tale of whoa. :D
Serai3 That's true, old noirs had very confusing plots, and this film parodies that. In the classic Bogart movie The Big Sleep, the screenwriters themselves didn't know who killed the chauffeur, who appeared sunk in the docks inside a car, so they asked Raymond Chandler, the author of the novel. His answer: "They sent me a wire... asking me, and dammit I didn't know either."
That was James vs Cinema I believe, and yes I think that explains this movie perfectly.
Cohen brothers definitely addressed your comments about the plot. "You know, a lotta ins, lotta outs, lotta what-have-you's. And, uh, lotta strands to keep in my head, man. Lotta strands in old Duder's head". Has to be watched multiple times. Fortunately, it never gets old because it's so good.
0:49 - Roger Deakins is one of few longest collaboratest with Coen brothers. He's first movie working together was Barton Fink from 1991 and from this take cinematographed every Coens movie (except Burn After Reading - he was replaced by Emmanuel Lubezki; Inside Llewyn Davis and The Ballad of Buster Scruggs - both made by Bruno Delbonnel as DP).
Check out a movie called Galaxy Quest. That's a fun one from around the same time as this
Another (I forgot) one of my favorites along Lebowski, Young Frankenstein, Airplane. Galaxy Quest, it has been said is one of the best Star Trek's non Star Trek movie. Oh I do have to mention a movie that pokes fun at Star Wars and Alien. The Ice Pirates (1984). Ron Perlman was in it. Some others here might not know the other actors though but I highly recommend it. Unfortunately it may be hard to find.
gotta watch star trek iv: the voyage home (the one with the whales) before doing Galaxy Quest imo... two of my favourites
My favorite Coen Brothers film and one of my favorite films period. Best way to explain the film is a Stoner Noir, with The Dude filling in for the hard boiled private detective like Sam Spade or Phillip Marlow. Brilliant film.
When he says Lennon, he is saying Lenin, as in communism. The giggling ninny actor is a well known actor David Thewlis, you may recognize him from Harry Potter or Fargo third season. There is also a sequel to this from John Turtoro from 2020 called The Jesus
One of my fav quotes not shown here but everyone can probably guess where it is, "Well they finally did it, they killed my fcuikng car".
The Big Lebowski is probably in my top three movies of all time, and a magnificent deconstruction of noir by the Coen Brothers. The second I saw that you had reviewed this one, I knew I had to drop everything and watch along with you.
Thank you for taking the time to watch Benjamin!
Awesome reaction! You pick up on things that so many reactors don’t on first watch, and I really appreciate it. This movie gets better the more you watch it.
Yours is my favorite film reaction channel. I truly enjoy your very thoughtful analysis each and every time.
Burn After Reading might be my personal favorite of theirs, but I also love one that everyone seems to hate, The Ladykillers.
Worst 2 of them
Raising Arizona is my favorite of theirs.
Burn After Reading, Brad Pitt's turn to steal a movie like John Goodman does in T G L. Oh John Malkovich is a trip too
@@scottjo63 - The main leads are all darn funny. Clooney's last scene cracks me up every time. Pitt's last scene kills me every time. Frances McDormand is just so ridiculously funny all throughout. But Malkovich's anger outbursts may still be the funniest of it all. But then you throw in Richard Jenkins with his Greek Orthodox congregation and, well, I love that movie.
(And I maintain that the movie is overall very similar to Fargo plot-wise, though the would-be dramatic parts are still way more comedic in this one.)
In case you haven't seen them yet, I am hoping you check out the rest of the Coen Brother's best ... "Fargo" and "No Country For Old Men" ...
Never has an actor better fit a role. Bridges was born to be The Dude.
THANK YOU for doing this film. THis is an absolutely ESSENTIAL watch! Such a quotable movie. And the acting from EVERYONE in it is amazing.
One of my top few films and surely the film I've watched the most, probably over 60 times I'd guess. You should definitely go for a few views to really appreciate it. Such a good story, wonderful soundtrack and for a long time it held the award for the most amount of swear words in a film.
Everyone loves Lebowski and No Country, but I hope you check out: O Brother Where Art Thou (for the immaculate cinematography by Deakins), Barton Fink (for the sublime performances by Goodman, Tuturro, Michael Lerner, and Judy Davis), Fargo (I'm sure you've seen), and Intolerable Cruelty (perhaps their greatest screenplay ever in my opinion). Great video.
Please react to "The Jerk" (Directed by Carl Reiner...Rob Reiner's Father)
And All Of Me, another my favorite classics
Another film that shows how versatile Turturro is: Secret Window costarring Johnny Depp.
This is my favorite movie of all time! you should do Hail Ceaser! next
The moment with Donny's ashes is still the funniest thing I've seen on film. Great reaction!
This was one of those movies that I didn't like the first time I saw it but it was in the back of my mind the following weeks, nagging me to watch it again. I've seen it a good 15 times now and it keeps getting better!
Same. I saw it when it came out and hated it then saw it one late night on cable and liked it. Now I have seen it so many times lol.
You have to watch the video of John Goodman getting his store on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Jeff Bridges gives a speech, and he dresses up as the Dude.
Jeff Bridges said that all he'd ask the Coen brothers before a scene was, "Did the Dude burn a J before this scene happens?" and if he did, he'd just rub his eyes really hard for a few seconds to get in character.
Great reaction! Literally every line of this movie is quotable. I must have seen it 50 times and I think I might be close to being able to recite the whole thing start to finish.
I watched this 7 times in the theater when it came out. Hilarious film. I'm a grown man but I still tear up every time Walter finally begins to apologize for being a fuck. He stared at his feet while The Dude tells him he's had enough. After Donnies passing, Walter; the Veteran who is continuously not afraid to stare death in the face, couldn't even look his best friend in the eye. In that moment, the child in Walter speaks for him and he just keeps on apologizing hoping it will be okay. He's no longer apologizing for fucking up but rather who he is. The one thing he can't control.
Great movie, one of my favorite scenes is after the corvette owner beat up the Dudes car, and they are driving back with the broken windows, they are quietly eating In&Out Burgers.
The adult actress is in fact a genius with a membership in Mensa. Saw her in a blue film today in fact. Great film, funny as f... Now enjoy a white Russian
When I first saw this film, I didn't get it. Then I watched it an unplanned second time totally out of the blue, and it just clicked.
The first time, I think I was fixating on trying to track the story. The second time I was just absorbing the tone, personality, and craftsmanship. And like so many others, that absorbing has evolved with multiple interactions with the work (viewings, clips, quotes, discussions, etc.) into a feedback loop, that has amazing resonance and harmony.
Thanks for another great video Shan. Thank you for sharing. Your work continues to both impress and provide great enjoyment.
Another great review and reaction Shan!
Regarding the confusing plot: This movie was an homage of Raymond Chandler, particularly Big Sleep (and especially the 1946 movie of the same name). This movie was legendarily confusing. There is a famous story about when the movie was being made, nobody knew who killed a chauffeur. Finally they called Chandler and he admitted to not knowing either.
man, you're great at this, loved it.
What's really great about this movie that took me one or two extra viewings to realize, is that it follows all the beats of a noir, subverting tropes basically throughout the whole thing. Once that clicked, the movie made a lot more sense. In general, it's a noir themed shaggy dog story.
I love this reaction, it really ties the channel together.
The dude abides 🤘🤘
This is one of my favourite movies, I love your videos Shan!
If you haven't seen it give "o brother where art thou" a watch. It's one of my favourite coen brothers films. It's a modern adaptation of the odyssey and its absolutely hilarious. George Clooney, John Turturro and Tim Nelson are brilliant.
1000% agree. I went to see it in the theater with a friend and after we left the theater, we were standing outside on the sidewalk and he said, "I want to see that again right now. When's the next showtime?"
@@dianem8544 I didn't see it in the cinema but I probably would have done the same 🤣 as a person who loves Greek mythology (or any mythology really) I enjoyed just seeing how they would adapt it to a modern setting. The fact it was hilarious as well was a bonus
I know it's a classic Gavin but I don't think I can do it on the channel since it has so many songs. All of them would have to be cut from the youtube edit :(
@@ShanWatchesMovies Fair.
I'm so happy you enjoyed this movie! It somehow gets better with each viewing. My favorite movies with Jeff Bridges must be Starman, Tron and The Big Lebowski. What an actor!
It's a classic man! I haven't watched Starman yet though!
One of my favorite movies, nice to watch your reaction Shan.
I really liked the more candid reaction at the end. More of this, please.
If nobody's mentioned this, the Nihilists feature a couple of amazing recording artists: The shortest nihilist, the one Walter hit with the ball in the final fight, is played by the legendary bassist Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. And the blond woman with them at the diner, the one who cut off her toe, is a cameo by Aimee Mann, the former lead singer of Til Tuesday and an accomplished and award-winning solo artist.
Another great movie from the Coen Brothers. They won the oscar for best picture with 'No Country for Old Men.' Javier Bardem won the oscar for best supporting actor
Javier Bardem playing one of the best villains ever.
Probably some of their best work!
Okay, Shan, you set me up. Weird protagonist, John Turturro, the Coen brothers, and we might even throw Rodger Deakins in but I'm too lazy to check. Barton Fink (1991). [Edit] Fink came to mind first, but another one which also checks the boxes, would be O Brother Where Art Thou (2000). Though, I have a suspicion you might have seen that one. Best. Leo.
Thank you for both the recommendations Leo! I haven't watched Fink yet so it's going on the list. I've heard the songs from O Brother Where Art Thou (long story) but never got to see the film. I'll add it to the list too!
@@ShanWatchesMovies "Miller's Crossing" is also a top Coen Bros. movie!
@@ShanWatchesMovies Let me guess. One of the songs to which you refer would be Man of Constant Sorrow. This cover is not by the Soggy Mountain Boys but, then again, they don't have to pay George Clooney's salary. czcams.com/video/-ew_bfFvros/video.html Best. Leo.
@@ShanWatchesMovies Oh lawd, yes, please do O Brother Where Art Thou? 🙏🙏🙏 It's sooooo good, and yes, it has an excellent soundtrack, put together by T Bone Burnett!
Another quality reaction, you deserve a lot more views and followers.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it :)
This film is so influential, it inspired a religion...
Zen Buddhism > Dudeism
Seriously?!
@@travis9260 And neo-pagan Druidry, Wicca, or witchcraft trump them both... (shrug)
Dammit Shan, I wanted to go to bed, I have work in the morning and then you post one of my favourite films.
For some reason it gets funnier each time I watch it. There are loads of small details, for instance a Captain Beefheart song! One of my favorite films.
Two interesting facts: the f-bomb is dropped 260 times and you never see the Dude bowl !
Holy F! 260 times!
What a treat here, you're reaction and review to one of my top 10 favorite comedy movies, right next to Young Frankenstein, All Of Me, and ALL the Abrams movies including Airplane. The Coen Brothers do have other best comedies including one with action called Raising Arizona starring Nicolas Cage (need I say more). Of course another comedy classic,, Oh Brother, Where Art Thou. All recommended. Oh I forgot this movie became as popular like a Star Trek convention they have some where a Great Lebowski week or weekend.
One of the bits I really like in this film is the use of a barking dog in a scene to increase the tension. They use that technique in Miller's Crossing as well.
Coolest movie ever. Great reaction Shan, very enjoyable after some horrible ICU shifts,
8:12, the Uzi is self firing!! Lol!!🤣
ONE OF MY 10 FAVORITE MOVIES..AND AS FOR BRIDGES AND GOODMAN THEY BOTH DESERVED AN ACADEMY AWARD!
Thank you so much for reviewing this because I swear every time I see this I find it even funnier and funnier. Anything with John Goodman is going to be excellent especially when it includes Jeff Bridges. I also highly recommend o brother where out thou.
Thank you for watching man!
Glad you liked this as much as me, Shan. FYI it gets better with rewatches too, since the many-faceted plot gets in the way less. Bit of trivia for you, Steve Buscemi’s surname is not pronounced ‘Boo-shemmy’, it’s pronounced ‘B’skeemy’. No one gets this right, though it is quite amusing hearing Buscemi talk about how no one gets it right in certain interviews!
The complexity of the plot keeps it new. I've seen it 25 times and I still spot nuances and jokes that I previously missed.
*Dude:* _"It's all a goddamn fake. Like Lenin said, look for the person who will benefit. And you will, uh, you know, you'll, uh, you know what I'm trying to say--"_
*Donny:* _"I am the Walrus."_
*Walter:* _"That fucking bitch!"_
*Dude:* _"Yeah."_
*Donny:* _"I am the Walrus."_
*Walter:* _"Shut the fuck up, Donny! V.I. Lenin! Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov!"_
*Donny:* _"What the fuck is he talking about?"_
Donny truly was a man *_ALWAYS_* out of his element.
Even in death, his ashes ultimately refused to be committed to the bosom of the Pacific Ocean.
By the way.
The Spanish version of _"Hotel California"_ featured in the film is a cover of the song originally by American rock band *_Eagles,_* performed by the French group *_Gipsy Kings._*
Yeah... I know. Wrap your head around that! Haha xD
Like most people, I classify my friends and acquaintances in little groups in my head. I have hockey friends; I have weightlifting friends; music friend, and The Big Lebowski friends. Me and my Big Lebowski friends, with no planning involved, communicate to one another using lines from this movie.
When we make plans: "Mark it, dude."
When I didn't quite catch what you're saying: "Who's got your undies, Walter?"
When we find ourselves in the middle of a rant: "AND I SURE AS SH*T DON'T F*CKING ROLL! SHOMER SHABBOS!"
When we see a stranger fail in some way:
"Get a job, sir."
This movie is as close to perfect as one can get (for my sensibilities). Every syllable, every gesture, every subtlety is well prescribed. The only "flaw" I've found is when Maude is talking about $1M of the foundation's money, she says "dollars" with a hard R, like she's from the south. Just that one word in the middle of a sentence doesn't fit her character's accent. That and Liam's inability to not look at the camera during Jesus' first rant. Flea didn't need to be in it.
This movie will get even better over the next few times you watch it.
Good reaction!
I love, when other people love this movie. Everything you said in this video I thought "this guy gets it"
I like your analysis of movies. When I was younger I worked in a video store with over 10,000 movies. I have watched so many movies, probably more than 10,000, because I watched almost every video at the video store, and that was twenty years ago, and I watched a lot of movies since then. And, a lot of movies before then. I am also into music.
Sometimes, people like to argue about what decade is best for music, or what decade is best for movies.
I can't pick a decade for music, I can argue almost any decade in my head, and they all seem to come out even.
Now movies on the other hand. The best decade for movies was the 80's. I just copied and will paste what I commented on someone else's page. You probably know these 80's movies. But, if you don't, these are all the movies I would suggest before any other movie, even from another decade. Unless it was somebody that never watched The Wizard of Oz or something like that.

Back when movies didn't have to be so serious, or so believable. What a great time to be alive back then. When movies were just about fun, and a great story. Now movies are taken to seriously. That would never happen like that, but back then they said, this is movie and yes it can.

Wow! Thanks for the wall of movies! I haven't gone through it yet but I will!
@@ShanWatchesMovies Thanks, you will probably know most of them. But I bet there is one here or there that you don't or maybe forgot about.
"The Narrator's" language request was the biggest tell of "The Cowboy" being the deity looking over "The Dude" as he travels aimlessly through the creator's chaos.
If that's so, then who's he telling the story to?
@@Serai3 The audience. "Zeus! Great welcome voice of Zeus, what do you bring?"
"The Grand Budapest Hotel" directed by Wes Anderson and starring Ralph Fiennes and an All-Star cast.
The next Coen Brothers movie, Raising Arizona? It's a hoot and a half.
I second that (and as said in my comment stars Nicholas Cage, need I say more)
I haven't watched that one yet!
@@ShanWatchesMovies definitely recommended.... and john goodman is in that one too 👍😉

I find it funnier than The Big Lebowski. Of course thats me.
.."..he fixes the cable?"
Funniest line in the movie..
This film is an emotional roller coaster of epic proportions.
So glad you enjoyed it! It is a classic film noir/detective film, except Dude isn't a Detective, brilliant! It's like replacing Humphrey Bogart with the dude in Maltese Falcon.
Great reaction video, I would love to see your take on the 80s classic Cannonball Run, or the best/Worst 70s Roger Corman film Deathrace 2000.
It was only a matter of time before these two worlds collided! The Dude abides, Shan. The dude abides.
The dude abides indeed!
This was my favorite movie in the 90s!!!
One of my favorite films. Glad you enjoyed it too.
I am not a film geek and I had not thought of another actor playing The Dude until you proposed it, but maybe Sean Penn.
Greatest movie ever.
