My 150 Favorite Movies - #38

The Big Lebowski (1998)

The Coen brothers already had a cult following before the release of The Big Lebowski, but their careers arguably went to a whole new level of cool afterwards. Jeff Bridges, who forever after has been referred to as "The Dude," gave a comic performance for the ages, as a restless slacker who gets caught up in an identity scam leveled at him by some very dicey, if wealthy, people, resulting from the bad fortune of sharing someone's name. John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, John Turturro, Julianne Moore, and Philip Seymour Hoffman are among the colorful characters populating this slightly skewed world.
