Best movie ever made...hands down.

The two of them sitting there both picking their fingernails the exact same way is hilarious.

This documentary really tied everything together

It's hilarious that Walter was right about everything in the investigation of the girl lol

John Goodman should have won an Oscar for this Gem.

"Well, uh, you know, that's just like, your opinion man." Greatest comeback line ever.

The Greatest Film of All Time. From opening scene to close........GENIUS.

I love the way that The Dude reuses language that he has heard previously throughout the movie. Ex: This aggression will not stand. In the parlance of our times . . . .

are they trying to open pistachios?

" Are you employed, sir ? " " E m p l o y e d ? "

The Coen Brothers both picking their cuticles and looking sheepish is kinda perfect.

Holy shit, I just realized the Dude is in the second dream scene dressed like Karl Hungus in the Logjammer porno, only in his ideal world it's got a bowling theme.

All the dude ever wanted was his rug back.

If you read the plot or someone explained it to you, you would never think it would be as great as it was. I adore this movie and i'm not even sure why

This movie was the bomb, in the parlance of our times.

Jeff's part is not that far off his real personality..he always seems super chill

They make the most rewatchable movies in my opinion. Knowing what is going to happen makes it even funnier sometimes.

These guys are like performance artists playing a couple of movie directors. The movies are actually part of the overall performance.

The car is a character all it’s own

Jeff Bridges sounds like he's not entirely sure what the movies about.

Back when 'making ofs' were really engaging and informative.

I love how both Coen brothers are both nervously playing with their fingers at the beginning.

"THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS LARRY!!!"

The original script actually refers to the narrator as "a Sam Elliott type". So I'm not sure if they knew they'd be able to get him for the role, but they based the character just on Elliot's performances in other movies.

The greatest Film Noir of all time with The Dude as the laziest detective in LA which would qualify him as one of the laziest detectives in the world.

I remember an anecdote that relates to what they're saying about the sort of lack of structure of The Big Sleep - when they were making the movie version of that book, they realised one of the characters died, but couldn't figure out from the book who had killed the character. So they called up Raymond Chandler, the author of the novel, and asked him. "Who killed this character ? Can you help us explain this ?" "I don't know", Chandler said, "I don't think it's in the novel". So nobody knew the intricacies of the plot, not even the original author. The anecdote is something like that, I might have a few details wrong but it's close.

There is humanity in the Coen Brothers films like there is in no other it's wonderful it's horrifying and yet it always shows you something that you may have been missing, overlooking, or detaining your heart from.

You know, Dude, I myself dabbled in pacifism. Not in Nam, of course.

These bothers are pure genius. They write all their lines and allow no add libbing.

The best thing about it is walter was totally right the whole time 😂😂

Those 2 guys are great, think about having a brother who shares and fuel your fantasies than being alone with it and nobody wants to hear your stories. That's why I think they are great writers / storytellers.

This interview really tied the film together...

the dude abides

*The Dude was himself in the movie and he has to play Jeff Bridges since.*

The Big Lebowski is one of those very few movies that gets better and better on repeated viewings. It's probably the best of them all.

At 20:20 or so I thought the director was going to say that "getting his rug back would have really tied the movie together". lol He kinda missed out on a great reference opportunity.

5:36 "Oh, for fuck sake, he cut me off again! Guess I'll do my usual roll of the eyes and sigh, but gotta keep it only slight because they're filming this!" :(

"It's already posted" "WELL THEY CAN FUCKIN UNPOST IT!"

lol they are both fuckin picking at their hands the same way. weird.

Yeah yeah, haha at all the quotes. Very good. But I've come here to impart words of wisdom of my own: Julianne Moore is blazing hot in this film.

I was amused for days after watching this movie - I would just keep getting flashbacks of various scenes and just start chuckling out loud - usually when I was in a queue somewhere. I must have got the reputation of being the village idiot ... awesome performances from all the characters and simply unbelievable script !!!

I used to live in Venice, CA, on Venice Blvd., in a bungalow among a set of cottages set up exactly like in this film, where the landlord lived in the central bungalow. The only difference was the floor plan of the bungalows was slightly different. It may well have been the same bungalows, just that the movie transformed the bedroom into a bathroom. In which case, I lived in the same bungalow that they shot the movie in. It's always very strange seeing those scenes for me. I see on Google Earth that they've torn down those bungalows. Towards the last, they were painted purple and then still later, they were painted black. Also, I was a serious "pothead" for about a quarter century, so this film hit home for me.

We'll be forever grateful to you guys for gifting us this masterpiece!

This film, alongside Shrek and Monty Python and the Holy Grail, are my favourite comedy films ever.

Fargo is probably my favorite of their films and No Country for Old Men, but The Big Lebowski is one of the best comedies and all 3 films are some of the best films of all time.

Loved it from day one! I remember watching it for the first time in the living room with a bunch of my older family and I was rolling in the floor and no one else as much as chuckled.. I just remember thinking you guys can't be serious this is the greatest thing ever.lol

wtf they doing with their nails?

I've watched this movie about 10 times now and every time it gets better

The big lebowski is a classic thanks jeff.

There's a very short list of men who, by my estimation, should not consider leaving the house without a mustache: 1. Tom Selleck 2. Sam Elliot 3. Alex Trebec

How i love love love every second of this movie!!!! Funny as hell)

one of the greatest films ever made.

john goodman is pure gold in this film

All the dude ever wanted was his rug back

Isn't it wonderful how this story by the Cohens, that was based on a Dude they met, some actors they wanted to use and wrote parts for, an insane director in hollywood everyone knew (Goodman's character), all were thrown into a cheesy 1950's Film Noir detective plot along with a lot of 70's drug culture influence and it became this masterpiece that hangs together and presents a cohesive film, even though it has no earthly reason for doing so? I don't know about you, but I take comfort in knowing that they are out there, just tying it all together for us.

Absolutely! I agree with blueparrot's comments below. This film is priceless. And I adore Jeff Bridges.

Is it fair to say this is the best comedy ever made? I'm brave, I'm gonna say it!

This movie is at the very top of my list for go to movies when I need some laughs. Simply hilarious

Funniest movie ever made.. And because the characters are so believable.

Man... I wish this documentary had gone on for two hours. The Coens should have a UNESCO Heritage seal stamped on their foreheads. Something not mentioned - surely The Long Goodbye served as inspiration for The Big Lebowski, there are many private eye noir films to draw from, but the Robert Altman classic adaptation on the genre had an iconoclastic and hilarious streak to it, which the Coens took five steps further.

The reason the movie is popular , in my opinion, is that it creates a stark contrast between the antagonist (boomer , hard worker, pillar of society , the rich Mr. Lebowski) and our hero (and what's a hero, really) , the dude , who is a stoner, slacker, and one of the laziest people. People resonated with that because the dude's portrayal as a hero , is helping to taking the pressure off of conforming to parental and societal expecations, for everyone who views this film. It's giving people an alternative to conforming with the status quo and just be a cookie cutter, well oiled cog in the machine. Not to mention all the destruction on a planetary scale that mindless boomer work ethics like those of Mr. Lebowski has already wrought, for profit everything, and now 70% of the arctic ice caps are gone because the puppet masters who park their 100 ft yachts in Monaco harbor needed to buy a 120 ft Yacht this year, so they continuously churned the workers and resources of the planet , ultimately to its peril.

I think I might start to write a movie about these brothers , they have identical mannerisms when thinking 🧐

I had three friends that were just like the Dude, Walter and Danny and this movie is my favorite Coen brothers movie hands down.

Whoa the Coen Brothers mentions Chandler novels a lot. Raymond Chandler is one of my favorite novelist. Also 2 of my favorite TV characters!

I love this movie from start to finish

The movie has a strange effect on me. First time I just thought it was ok. But some friends were obsessed about it and I watched it again and thought it was really good. And the more I watch it the more addicted I get. Now I'm obsessed too.

"Are you employed sir?"

The most beautiful thing I've ever seen!

Favorite movie. Coulda gone my whole life without actually seeing the Coen brothers speak.

Awesome movie, still watching 2021!

This movie is absolutely top 50 movies ever made. I mean man, every line in this movie is delivered and written perfectly. It’s just a perfect movie. Not a complaint.

I agree, one of the funniest movies I have ever seen!

One of my all~time TOP 3 movies! Just CLASSIC!

A very special and unique film.

A friend of mine named his dog Donnie so every time the dog would bark, he could say "Shut the fuck up, Donnie!"

Bridges makes the lines come alive like no one else.

More of a masterpiece of proportions, its a good "mood" movie, good stoned watching and couchlounging.

One of my favourite film!!! I'm a big fan of the Cohen's brothers

Isn’t it incredible that many many peoples arguably favorite movies(TBL/No Country/O Brother) are all just, just incredible, each in its own way. And all 3 are made by the same two “dudes”. Like between the 3, idk if I could pick a favorite. However, all 3 are my very favorite movies. No Country is so very tense at times, many times. And yet, TBL is just so relaxed. The pacing of the movie is just so, friggin, relaxed, lol. I’d think O Brother, is somewhere between the 2. It’s relaxed and fun and adventurous. When the conflicts enter into the story tho, it becomes very tense when needed……again, all 3(and that’s not to discount Fargo and couple others either) of these brilliant 5 star movies. All made by the same guys and each with its own spectacular mosaic of specific elements that really “tie the movie/s together”

My FAVORITE Movie of ALL time....

Donny is a PTSD figment of Walters experience in Viet Nam; no others really interact with Donny, except Walter with 'THE DUDE'

I can relate to the scene of the cremated ashes blowing back into The Dude's face. Happened to me while I was filming two people pouring of ashes out a small hole in a plexiglas window in B-25 Mitchell in flight. We were doing an ash drop. When friends went to dump ashes out the window most of the ashes ended up on my face while I was filming. The show must go on.

Take a drink every time one of the Coens says "Sort of"

My family in LA in the 80’s. My cousin looked just like him. Good time’s.😎

freaking love this movie

This is one of the funniest movies ever made.

Funniest movie of all-time for me ;-)

This movie was so good it made me buy a damn book.

“I was talking about my rug” Great line

The Best Behind The Scenes! Ever!!

Why is everyone shitting on their antics and calling them creeps lol, show more respect to these guys they gave us this masterpiece!

Jeff Bridges is the Perfect Man

I think, I didn't get it on my 1st viewing, but it was soooooo looooong ago (Perhaps, I was too young). I rewatched it recently, and it's a madterpiece :----).

What are they both doing to their nails

they floored the interviewer

The Big Lebowski and SNATCH are my favorites movies

Walter is a guy I could imagine as a grown Cartman from Southpark.

I agree. The best film of all times. No doubt. Coen genius

This should be back in the YT feed please 🙌🏻
