Last night I watched The Big Lebowski for the first time. I don’t know why I havn’t seen this movie before because it’s such an awesome movie. Now pay attention to why I say it’s awesome. The movie does not have spectacular cinematography, or even that great of dialogue, but what it does have is an awesome story. A story that is so bazaar you almost wish it had happened to you, or maybe not.
It’s the characters that you love in the movie and their interaction with each other. The “Dude” (Jeff Bridges) walks around in haggard clothes drinking white russians, which he refers to as “caucasians.” Then there is Walter (John Goodman) is always dressed like he is ready to go hunting and is always shouting off references to Vietnam. Then there is Donny (Steve Buscemi) who never really gets to talk all that much except for when Walter tells him to “Shut the F#*& up” It’s really a beautiful trio of disfunction. The whole movie is filled with random scenes following a “story” yet to tell you the truth, there is not much of a plot.
When it comes down to it, after you have watched the movie, you will think “Wow, that was a cool movie” yet you won’t really know what it was about.
