I LOVE this movie. The first time I saw it, when I was abroad in London, I laughed so hard I cried. When I saw it again at home it was still funny, but maybe it was the company I saw it with the 1st time. If you told me then that I'd marry someone who'd been on the bowling team (yes, it's true. I admit it for him and am embarrassed for myself) and that I'd call him "Dude," I would not have believed you, but now it all makes sense. Alas, there's no swinging from the ceiling or whatever happened in the f-'ed up scene.
Just go see it or rent it or netflix it. I laughed so hard I cried.

- This Thanksgiving, celebrate with the unemployed losers, bowling pederasts, and testy nihilists of the Coen brothers' imagination, instead of those in your own family. In The Big Lebowski, Jeff Bridges heads an inspiring ensemble cast (including Julianne Moore, Steve Buscemi, John Goodman, John Turturro, and, erm, Flea) as the CCR-loving, lackadaisical bowler Jeffrey "the Dude" Lebowski. Following a little mix-up with some "rug-pissers" involving a much wealthier Lebowski, the Dude sets out to exact retribution, only to get sucked into a kidnapping scheme of Raymond Chandler proportions. Highly entertaining and immediately quotable, the flick has amassed an ardent following (fests are involved) to become a legit cult classic. Screw the mashed potatoes — bring on the White Russians. – Leah Taylor
