Summary:
A movie review of the popular Coen Brothers movie, "The Big Lebowski," widely considered one of the greatest cult classic films of modern times.

Details or Sample:
The Coen Brothers are renowned for producing films that are unique and power. Each film produced by these directors is more like a new and startling experience rather than just another movie. A long time cult favorite, "The Big Lebowski" is often the first movie mentioned when someone asks about "best cult classic movies," and this movie earns that title.

Ranked as one of the 150 best movies of all time on IMDB, "The Big Lebowski" tends to be a movie even loved by movie fans who aren´t particularly fond of the Coen Brothers. Part of this comes from the likeability of the "hero," who is described by the narrator as "Not a hero, but just a man, a man who was right for his time." Jeffrey Lebowski, known to everyone as "The Dude," is described as one of the laziest men of all Los Angeles.

The Dude loves bowling, white Russians, and weed, and is shoved into an adventure because a bunch of hooligans mistake him for the millionaire Lebowski, whose wife owns Jackie Treehorn (pornographer, millionaire, and goon) a lot of money. This movie only gets stranger from here. Peppered with great one-liners from The Dude (played by Jeff Bridges), this movie is probably one of the most quoted of all time, with some of the most popular from The Dude including:

"At least I´m house broken."
"Jackie Treehorn treats objects like women, man."
"He fixes the cable?"
"That rug really tied the room together."
"Yeah, well, you know, that´s just, like, your opinion, man."

Many of these are built into entire scenes of dialogue, and sometimes it seems that Lebowski fans can quote most of the movie line for line. Add in around The Dude a cast of strange characters, from Donny the bowler who is always told to shut up (an inside joke among the Coens based on Steve Buschemi´s character in the movie "Fargo") to John Goodman as Walter Sobchek, a Vietnam vet who has some serious issues, and that´s before getting into his Catholic/Jewish wrestling of faith, as well as his ex-wife´s dragging him around.
