Big Lebowski, The

Big Lebowski, The

1998

The writing-directing Coen brothers serve up their signature brand of offbeat comedy here. L.A. slacker "The Dude" (Jeff Bridges) suffers the indignity of having the favorite rug in his house peed upon by two thugs. (They've mistaken him for a millionaire whose wife owes on some bad bets.) From there, the plot contorts more than a rubberized freak at a circus sideshow. But it's all good fun.

Hay quienes tratan de ganarse la vida sin mover un dedo... otros tienen que cortarlos. (Mexico)
