This is the Coen Brothers greatest work. They have dabbled in many different genres throughout their careers from film noir (Blood Simple) to gangster flick (Millers Crossing) and even turning George Clooney into an escaped convict in the comedy 'O'Brother Where Art Thou'. But this is a piece of genius.

Jeff Bridges plays "The Dude" aka Jeff LeBowski, he is a bum that has no job, smokes weed and lives to go bowling with his two pals Walter (Jon Goodman) a crazy ex-Vietnam veteran and Donnie (Steve Buscemi).

His life is turned upside down however when The Dude's namesake, and multi-millionaire, Jeff Lebowski's young trophy wife racks up huge betting bills "all over town". Two heavies break into the dude's apartment intent on getting their money back and end up peeing on The Dude's rug.

This action leads to a whole catalogue of events that spiral out of control and leads the dude to meet pornographers, feminists, nihilists, Saddam Hussein and even Jesus! Jeff Bridges gives the performance of his distinguished career (although he was apparently just playing himself!) and Jon Goodman is just absolutely hysterical.
