The Big Lebowski
The Dude, Jeff Lebowski is unemployed and laid-back… until… victim of mistaken identity, two thugs break into his apartment in the errant belief that they are accosting Jeff Lebowski the Pasadena millionaire.
In hope of getting a replacement for his soiled carpet, the Dude visits his wealthy namesake, with buddy, ex-Nam Veteran, Walter, he is swept up in a Coenesque comedy/thriller of extortion, embezzlement, sex and dope.
It takes guys as simple as the Dude and Walter to make a story this complicated… and they'd really rather be bowling.
