The best part of my job though was giving movie recommendations to customers when they were looking for the right feature for their movie night. It was great to spread my love of movies and recommend little-known, but great films and then have the person come back praising my choice.
It is with this in mind that I decided to post a weekly "Movie Night Pick" of an old gem that many may have not seen, but should. So here goes.
Sometimes there's a man that's just right for his time and place. And that man is The Dude.
"The Big Lebowski" is the cult classic from the Coen brothers, Joel and Ethan, and is their take on the detective noir genre, albeit with a slacker instead of a suave detective.
Rife with comedy genius, "The Big Lebowski" puts The Dude, played perfectly by Jeff Bridges, and his friend Walter, a never better John Goodman, on a hunt to find the kidnappers of young trophy wife, married to a man with the same name as The Dude.
It is for all intents and purposes a mystery comedy, so I won't unravel any more of the plot. But if tonight you're trying to figure out what to watch, enjoy great directing, acting, a killer soundtrack featuring CCR, Bob Dylan and many more, then you must immediately rent, buy or steal "The Big Lebowski". It will really tie your evening together.
