A cult classic like no other, Joel and Ethan Coen’s The Big Lebowski (1998) is an absurd, endlessly quotable journey through the slacker underbelly of Los Angeles, where bowling, mistaken identity, and a ruined rug collide in spectacular fashion. Jeff Bridges stars as Jeffrey “The Dude” Lebowski, a laid-back, White Russian-sipping pacifist whose life takes a bizarre turn when he’s mistaken for a millionaire with the same name. After a case of rug-related vengeance, The Dude - alongside his hot-tempered bowling buddy Walter and the perpetually confused Donny - gets tangled in a web of kidnappings, nihilists, and surreal encounters that only the Coens could conjure.

With their signature mix of razor-sharp dialogue, eccentric characters, and an unpredictable, noir-infused narrative, the Coen brothers transform this oddball caper into a meditation on fate, absurdity, and the meaning of, well… just takin’ it easy. The Big Lebowski has grown into one of the most beloved cult films of all time, inspiring legions of devoted fans, festivals, and even a philosophy of life, Dudeism.

Whether you’re a longtime achiever or a first-time bowler, this Coen brothers classic demands to be seen on the big screen - preferably with a drink in hand. White Russian anyone?
