I remember taking my dad to see "The Big Lebowski." He didn't really want to go. All the folks at the senior center had told him it was awful, with lot's of swearing. I never heard him laugh so loud, laugh all the way through. For my old man, the dude abides.
I didn’t realize, never even been nominated?! Two of the best actors ever. Anytime I see that either one is in a film, I know it will be worth a look because those guys (and Bridges) are always interesting to watch and elevate whatever they are in.
@@herr5262 Which reinforces one of the rules of nature that I think explains so much about political science and culture: most people are stupid! But I was also talking about just those 2 actors in general. Buscemi and Goodman are two of my favorite actors ever. If I see their name on a film (with the exception of extended toy commercials masquerading as movies, i.e., Transformers) I always give it a look because they can make anything interesting. They are also great actors because unlike a lot of actors, they can play all sorts of different characters. BTW, you probably know this but Big Lebowski is (among other things) an adaptation of scenes and characters from Raymond Chandler's novels like The Big Sleep with The Dude as Philip Marlow.

Me and a buddy happened to both be off of work due to a winter storm. We decided to go see TBL. Walking in, we thought it was a bowling movie. Walking out, we had no idea what it was that we had seen, but we knew it was something. Over the years we must have re-watched it 40 times and we never ceased quoting lines from the film. My friend is gone now, but I'll never forget that snow day and will always smile when I see any scene from this great movie.
You could tell that these are a bunch of good guys, humble and reminiscing the days. The interviewer is interested in the topic itself and he has let the guys just talk and laugh. Lovely interview
All art inspires debate. But great art, defines it. You could talk about this movie till the cows come home. And then afterwards you'd still think to yourself, 'oh I can't believe we never mentioned that bit'.
Buscemi is such a humble guy. This was a really minor role for him but he’s completely fine letting the others be front and centre when talking about the movie
Oh no, really? Man, absolutely. God be with him. I believe he, if anyone, can pull through. Jeff's the best. He's like, the best President in any movie ever. Just watch The Contender. It'll knock yer socks off.
its gonna be ok man im sure he is taking it very easy chilling with a white russian dont worry dude its gonna be fine man that dude is so joyful that cancer cant get into him.
@@dickgaeysonbyday4137 But then whose ashes were they? And how was the funeral home involved. They couldn't have brought an invisible friend to a funeral home...
Good point in comments about the ashes dashing this theory. Bridges also makes a good point that Dude sort of passively plays along with Walter’s Donny/imagination. The throw-away, “Thank you Donn.”!!
Joel and Ethen wrote the Lebowski character exactly with Bridges in mind to play him. There was no one else. They had met Jeff Bridges and knew how he was. The Lebowski character WAS Jeff, albeit slightly exaggerated. If Bridges doesn't agree to do the film, there is no film.
I was a child ( 10 yrs. old ) the first time I saw Jeff Bridges . It was the 1976 version of King Kong. That man has literally been in movies through out my entire life. I think of him and certain musicians as people that have " raised me". That's is, I feel like they've always been a presence in my life. I'm 56 now and feel fortunate to have seen a lot of his work. He is truly a actors actor and an marvel to watch.
I pray you've seen "The Morning After" with Jane Fonda. It's a brilliant film in and of itself, and it's just incredible to see Jeff and his methods onscreen.
I love his catalogue of work that it's so diverse, fisher king, fearless, Arlington drive, big lebowski, thunderbolt and lightfoot, true grit, jagged edge
lol I know right? I mean is it just me, or did he look healthier when he was bigger? I don't know if this is a healthy weight loss. He looks a bit gaunt.
This is the best movie-related interview I've ever seen. There's nothing but joy around the table; the actors hijacked the interview and made it a celebration.
he was a retired firefighter and was an actor when 9/11 happened, but he grabbed his old uniform and helped out, he also didn’t want to do any interviews. great guy
@@beingjohn392 Nobody expects or wants them to do a sequel. Them doing a reunion/reminiscent about one of their best roles is fine. Boardwalk Empire is Buscemi's most iconic role but the other two it's arguable this is main roles.
and all 3 looking good, like they're enjoying life... I'd be honored if some Big L fans and/or fans of dudes with long hair & sideburns would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of 80s classic songs on my channel.

Sometimes at work, i will just play the movie on my phone at work, so me and my coworkers can just listen to the whole movie. We ALWAYS find a new part of the movie to laugh at everytime, along with quoting as much as we can

My favorite scene is when the dude gets bundled into the back of a car, yet still manages to keep his drink from spilling - 'Dude, there's a beverage here!'
John Goodman is the rare actor who, no matter what I’ve seen him in, is always magnificent. I can not think of a single performance he’s done that wasn’t perfectly entertaining. As a supporting character actor, he outshines the majority of leading actors he’s placed alongside. I hope he lives for decades more.
I love Steve Buscemi so much. Such a brilliant actor and a great human being. These three, Jeff Bridges, Steve Buscemi and John Goodman are the best together. A classic American Movie.
So much funnier than the original line. Another hilarious line that was greatly improved by censorship was in Joe Dirt. "Well I'm sure it did but it ain't no meteor. It's a big ol' frozen chunk o' butt release."
And the decidedly not amused cop poking thru his ashtray. (the guy who says, "or the Credence") Also love the way Dude cranks back the Barcalounger while talking to the cops.
There isn't an occasion in life , good, bad or indifferent, when one couldn't use a line from Lebowski. Every single word is perfect. Every scene a joy. Thanks to the brothers and the fantastic cast.
... and every picture is a feast for the eyes. I hardly know any movie with a matchable brilliant photography. Just take the iconic shot on the blazing red Corvette in front of Larry's house...
I met Jeff Bridges about seven years ago when he was in my company's office. Super nice and polite to everyone despite 50 people following him around like flies, myself included. Gotta love a person who remains kind after such sterling success.
Isn't it? It gives me goosebumps to this day, almost like a religious experience. Sure, the Cohens wrote and directed the movie, but getting the perfect cast together, and having everything fall into place the way it did - i don't know. It feels like a conspiracy of the highest order. It's a phenomenon, beyond the power of mere mortals.
[RESERVOIR DOGS SPOILER ALERT] The fact he almost always dies in his roles, sometimes in gruesome ways, makes the fact Mr. Pink is the only one to survive even more amazing.
If you have not seen the big Lebowski watch it. Even if you don’t like bowling. It’s really even not about bowling, it’s just a really good story and a good comedy. One of the best films in film history
YewTewbe A nihilist is someone who “doesn’t believe in anything”. When the dude says “must be exhausting”, he is saying it sarcastically. The nihilist in the movie is passed out in the pool next to a bottle of alcohol. The dude is making a joke at how easy a nihilist’s life must be.
@@rickghastly1511 Ahh, didn't even know they made a tv version.. What a shame. I think things like that should be presented as they are, not changed up for someones' feelings.
@@baronbloodington Always wondered how they edited Lebowski for tv. Remember when Eastwood's "Heartbreak Ridge" was edited for network tv? "Big leatherneck jarheaded maggot farmer." - Stitch Jones I digress...
John Goodman is really a brilliant movie buff with his memory of characters and lines from old movies. Very impressive. All of them are great. Such a great retrospective.
One of my favorite lines, and it inspired my favorite artist. Fans of TBL need to know about Dave MacDowell, man. (Of course, that's just, like...) livingroomfloorgallery.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Obviously.jpg
Isnt it crazy how a movie about a heist and a rug built around bowling buddies could be such a smash hit? Big Lebowski is one of my all time favorites.
Wasn't John Goodman singing "If I Didn't Have You", with Billy Crystal, at the Academy Awards, for Monster's Inc.? I guess it was a joint effort with the songwriter Randy Newman. Newman, finally, got it!
When the Dude finally tries to do some serious investigative work, running the pencil over Jackie's notepad. Yep that's when I knew this movie was legendary.
Finally rewatched this film after 20 years. Saw it back in 11th grade in '00 and didn't quite get it. Watched it four times yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it this time around. A highly recommended watch🙌
That is testament to most people's experience of it; once the first rewatch happens it takes off, the dialogue starts to land. but I don't know anyone who waited 20 years for that rewatch and then to have 3,4 and 5 happen the same day so in that way you are unique. The most enjoyable element is when you have a friend that quotes it with you and you'll be rolling on the floor laughing. I'm gonna go do a rewatch now. The rewatch abides
Probably my favorite line in the entire movie consists of just one word. It was during the LAPD Impound scene, where the Hispanic cop roars with laughter and declares: "LEADS!!!"
"They added four more detectives to the case. They've got us working in shifts." This movie has more funny lines than a whole season of anyone's favorite TV show.
Everyone's talking about how great the actors have been in that movie, and they were, but what buffled me the most is how to you come up with that idea, writing such a script, I mean how is that possible? It must be absolute genius and madness at the same time, kudos to Ethan and Joel, and whoever was involved writing this. Writers don't get enough credit anyways.
It's so crazy too because it's like...the whole time, like nobody is on the same page in that movie. Even from the very first scene, the narrator can't even finish his thoughts because he's losing track of what he's saying multiple times. The movie somehow makes zero sense and perfect sense at the same time. Like you said, it's really a testament to how great the writers did.
I think back to watching this in the theater with my younger brother. When buying the tickets the attendants told us that due to so many patrons complaining, that they were warning us beforehand that too many had already asked for refunds on their tickets. If we purchased tickets, there would be no refunds. Neither of us laughed so hard at any movie, ever.
I dont know how this video slipped into my feed, but im glad it did. I still quote this movie in 2024. Lebowski is on my "all-time greatest" rewatch list.
Agreed. I didn’t get it the first time I watched it, second time I watched it, I fell in love. It’s been my favorite movie of all time since freshmen year of high school (1999).
I love that they also love this movie. It always feels a bit of a shame when actors kind of don't want to talk about their work or just treat it like a job, and its great to see these guys also experience how special this movie was (for them and the fans). (and im glad the guy doing this interview is a fan of the movie as well because it really helps make the interview even better)
I love it when actors get together years after a project and you can just see the chemistry they have together, as people, as friends. Love so much of the work that each of these guys have done over the years and are still doing. This interview was excellent!

Steve buscemi is the quiet guy in real life
I like how The Dude is playing Jeff Bridges in this interview

I think he was not acting. He was just being himself in that movie.
Totally agreed, poor Steve, it’s obvious he’s not a gelled as Bridges and Goodman are offser

Jeff Bridges has the greatest hair of all time.
He still looks good
It’s hairpiece... but he still looks great!
@@emolina3784 ~ NO!! Really..? Man, What A Bummer..
Him and David Lynch have literally perfect hair
@@emolina3784 no its not
There isn't an occasion in life , good, bad or indifferent, when one couldn't use a line from Lebowski. Every single word is perfect. Every scene a joy. Thanks to the brothers and the fantastic cast.
... and every picture is a feast for the eyes. I hardly know any movie with a matchable brilliant photography. Just take the iconic shot on the blazing red Corvette in front of Larry's house...
@@klausschneider1045 Right. Wonderfully shot and fantastic sound. The Coens outdid themselves.
I love how Jeff looks at the others with admiration as they speak. They’re all good guys.
One of my favorite films of all time! The great thing is, it gets better every time because it’s so layered! Brilliant comedy!
The theory about Donnie being a spirit of an old war buddy kinda makes sense.
I've always thought Donnie was Walters imaginary buddy. Then the funeral director scene acknowledged him living.
@mohamulator i don't know much about league bowling, but it seemed to me that Jesus only had one teammate, that irish guy.
@mohamulator well he would be jesus ' imaginary pal...
Donnie who loved bowling.
Donny: Phone's ringing, Dude. The Dude: Thank you, Donny.
I met Jeff Bridges about seven years ago when he was in my company's office. Super nice and polite to everyone despite 50 people following him around like flies, myself included. Gotta love a person who remains kind after such sterling success.
The Dude abides...
He's a good man and thorough
The portrait of a good showman.
The Big Lebowski will be a fixture in my top 10 forever. This movie's a god damned institution.
Isn't it? It gives me goosebumps to this day, almost like a religious experience. Sure, the Cohens wrote and directed the movie, but getting the perfect cast together, and having everything fall into place the way it did - i don't know. It feels like a conspiracy of the highest order. It's a phenomenon, beyond the power of mere mortals.
Does the female form make you uncomfortable Mr. Lebowski?
Yea dudedism is an actually religion now man
Simon Coles
I was pleased as punch to hear that a nightclub in Reykjavik was inspired by it.
I wanted to visit Iceland before, but now...
Simon Coles...you like young John Hughes.
I am 50 years old. I have watched this movie at least 40 times and after watching this... I will probably watch it again... tonight.
“I DON’T ROLL ON SHABBAS!” Lol 😂
The scene after they visit Larry, driving with no windshield, but Walter and Donnie still got their In and Out Burgers 😂
It took me 2 or 3 viewings to catch that (I’m not the sharpest), but it became one of my favourite scenes.
The dudes hair moving in the wind with that look on his face is what gets me the most.
While the others are just loving life with their burgers hahaha perfect music too
Those are good burgers, Walter.
@@erikmunson2457 [whisper yelling] shhhutthefffckupdonnie!
Buscemi has been through a lot ... even a wood chipper. Glad he's doing better now.
[RESERVOIR DOGS SPOILER ALERT] The fact he almost always dies in his roles, sometimes in gruesome ways, makes the fact Mr. Pink is the only one to survive even more amazing.
He's got a bag of diamonds. He's doing fine
Austin Cheesman Actually found out that in the background sound of the final scene the cops arrested him.
ITAMrPink he doesn’t survive!! You can literally hear a massive shootout the second he leaves the warehouse
@@ITAMrPink none of them survive. Turn up the sound when he runs out of the building.
If you have not seen the big Lebowski watch it. Even if you don’t like bowling. It’s really even not about bowling, it’s just a really good story and a good comedy. One of the best films in film history
“He’s a nihilist.”
“That must be exhausting”
Hahaha! Yes! Best line in the thing.
Say what you will about national socialism, but at least it's an ethos; nihilism!
I got a rash man..
@oqsy - I've never understood this joke :(
YewTewbe A nihilist is someone who “doesn’t believe in anything”.
When the dude says “must be exhausting”, he is saying it sarcastically. The nihilist in the movie is passed out in the pool next to a bottle of alcohol. The dude is making a joke at how easy a nihilist’s life must be.
"Shut the f*** up, Donny." I practically had "Lebowski" on a loop for about a year.
My bro still has it on DVD great film never get tired of it
"This is what happens, Larry when you find a stranger in the Alps."
Lol that's not what he says.
@@StanHowse it is in the made for tv version, but yes, we know the truth
@@rickghastly1511 Ahh, didn't even know they made a tv version.. What a shame. I think things like that should be presented as they are, not changed up for someones' feelings.
Ahahaha, my brother in law and I quote that all the time. The TV edit on TNT.
@@baronbloodington Always wondered how they edited Lebowski for tv. Remember when Eastwood's "Heartbreak Ridge" was edited for network tv?
"Big leatherneck jarheaded maggot farmer."
- Stitch Jones
I digress...
John Goodman is really a brilliant movie buff with his memory of characters and lines from old movies. Very impressive. All of them are great. Such a great retrospective.
Love how they reminisce...absolutely no doubt, one of the greatest films of all time!
well that's your opinion man
THE greatest. Well, the funniest!
"Careful man, there's a beverage here!"
"What in God's holy name are you blathering about?"
fortunately im on a strict drug regimen
yeah hes a real reactionary
well.....man.....thats like your opinion
John Goodman was just hilarious the whole way through and it seemed like no one was noticing him dropping one-liners.
Yeah, he was diminished in this by the other guys. They didn't let him be him very much.
This whole interview and the four gentlemen just ooze joy. What a wonderful interview/conversation.
“Obviously, you’re not a golfer.”
One of my favorite lines, and it inspired my favorite artist.
Fans of TBL need to know about Dave MacDowell, man.
(Of course, that's just, like...)
livingroomfloorgallery.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Obviously.jpg
So great
Isnt it crazy how a movie about a heist and a rug built around bowling buddies could be such a smash hit? Big Lebowski is one of my all time favorites.
It wasn’t a smash hit. It took years to become a cult classic.
I can’t believe John Goodman hasn’t been nominated/won more awards. I just watched cloverfield lane and remember why he’s one of my fav actors
He was so good in that film. If it was anyone else in that part, the movie would've been forgotten by now. Lol
Wasn't John Goodman singing "If I Didn't Have You", with Billy Crystal, at the Academy Awards, for Monster's Inc.? I guess it was a joint effort with the songwriter Randy Newman. Newman, finally, got it!
His small part in Flight was what made that film
He should have gotten best supporting actor for this !
Just a bunch of old friends having a laugh. Three of my all time favorite actors.
When the Dude finally tries to do some serious investigative work, running the pencil over Jackie's notepad. Yep that's when I knew this movie was legendary.
reno cool I was in tears when I first watched that scene!
Oh man. That whole scene...
Jackie Treehorn treats objects like women, man. . .
Norman G One of my favorite lines in the movie, and there are tons of good ones!
Even now, Donny is out of his element...
Right!!😀 Still looks too timid to assert himself.
LMAO, ...yes!
Great comment, thnx for posting.
Epic comment
LMAO 😂.....Shut the F up
Donnie
You are right, he is clearly out of his element.
I love how these guys spend most of the time reminiscing about the great performances of the other people in the movie. Classy dudes.
Finally rewatched this film after 20 years. Saw it back in 11th grade in '00 and didn't quite get it. Watched it four times yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it this time around. A highly recommended watch🙌
That is testament to most people's experience of it; once the first rewatch happens it takes off, the dialogue starts to land. but I don't know anyone who waited 20 years for that rewatch and then to have 3,4 and 5 happen the same day so in that way you are unique.
The most enjoyable element is when you have a friend that quotes it with you and you'll be rolling on the floor laughing.
I'm gonna go do a rewatch now.
The rewatch abides
"I'm sorry I wasn't listening..." I use that irl. Never fails to grind people 🤣
Do you then get hit in the head with a coffee cup?
one of my favorite memories was playing that movie for my father before he died, 18yrs ago. He said he hated the movie, but laughed the whole time.
I was mad at the movie because I couldn't figure out what is going on. And the longer I watched it, the more confused I got) But it was so hilarious!
This aggression will not stand, man.
That's just like, your opinion, man
Nice marmot.
3 of my all-time favorites. These guys really have chemistry!!
Probably my favorite line in the entire movie consists of just one word. It was during the LAPD Impound scene, where the Hispanic cop roars with laughter and declares: "LEADS!!!"
"They added four more detectives to the case. They've got us working in shifts." This movie has more funny lines than a whole season of anyone's favorite TV show.
thats just your opinion, man
Everyone's talking about how great the actors have been in that movie, and they were, but what buffled me the most is how to you come up with that idea, writing such a script, I mean how is that possible? It must be absolute genius and madness at the same time, kudos to Ethan and Joel, and whoever was involved writing this. Writers don't get enough credit anyways.
I know right? The whole time I was like "Where did the Coens come up with this?", even the "human paraquat" line. 😆😂
It's so crazy too because it's like...the whole time, like nobody is on the same page in that movie. Even from the very first scene, the narrator can't even finish his thoughts because he's losing track of what he's saying multiple times. The movie somehow makes zero sense and perfect sense at the same time. Like you said, it's really a testament to how great the writers did.
I think back to watching this in the theater with my younger brother.
When buying the tickets the attendants told us that due to so many patrons complaining, that they were warning us beforehand that too many had already asked for refunds on their tickets. If we purchased tickets, there would be no refunds.
Neither of us laughed so hard at any movie, ever.
Nothing more beautiful than seeing four elderly men sitting together trying to remember stuff. love it
"They're calling the cops, man. Put the piece away...."
Bark! bark! bark! bark! bark! *awkward silence.
MARK IT ZERO!!
You’re a Lebowski
I’m a Lebowski
That’s terrific
"please, don't touch that"
Johnson?
The knowledge that these legends enjoy this as much as the rest of us is so great. Literally watching them fawn over the movie the way we all do.
I dont know how this video slipped into my feed, but im glad it did. I still quote this movie in 2024. Lebowski is on my "all-time greatest" rewatch list.
“This is what happens, Larry. This is what happens when you FIND A STRANGER IN THE ALPS!”
This is what Goodman was trying to remember.
Yep that's it
lolololol
Lmfao 🤣🤣🤣🤣
XD
@youtube deleted acct #2 that's how it is censored for regular tv.
Masterpiece. That Rug really tied the room together, did it not?
Jo Bckts F...n' Aaa!!!
Jo Bckts And the guy peed on it...
They peed on it, Dude!
The Big Lebowski was a very subtle movie. It is a classic film noir cleverly dressed up with a ton of fun elements.
Agreed. I didn’t get it the first time I watched it, second time I watched it, I fell in love. It’s been my favorite movie of all time since freshmen year of high school (1999).
These 3 legendary actors sitting around a table laughing with each other is amazing.
Bridges is a tremendously talented photographer. He always takes a ton of pictures during productions and many, many of them are just amazing.
Ever thus to deadbeats
Rip Phillip Seymour Hoffman
He can’t watch.. or else he has to pay a hundred.
RRRRAIN MAN!!!
His anniversary is coming up sadly. His n gandolfini's death affected me greatly.
one of the greatest
And David Huddleson
Calmer than you are...
I'm gonna enjoy my coffee.
my thinking on this whole thing has become way too uptight
there were no shots fired
Will you just take it easy... Man
I love that they also love this movie. It always feels a bit of a shame when actors kind of don't want to talk about their work or just treat it like a job, and its great to see these guys also experience how special this movie was (for them and the fans). (and im glad the guy doing this interview is a fan of the movie as well because it really helps make the interview even better)
"I'm calmer than you are."
"Just Take it Easy, Man."
@@brettrockford2564 "Calmer 'n you are."
@OligarchySlayer Um. Ok.
I love it when actors get together years after a project and you can just see the chemistry they have together, as people, as friends. Love so much of the work that each of these guys have done over the years and are still doing. This interview was excellent!
Hands down the best piece of casting in movie history imho. I just can’t imagine anyone else playing the dude like Jeff Bridges.
Tom Cruise would have been better
This might be the best interview I’ve ever watched. I’m such a huge fan of that movie and these guys. I was laughing the whole time watching this
"you can guess what happens next.""he fixes the cable?"
Don’t be fatuous, Jeffrey!
...i'll have a White Russian .. Maude " Fix it yourself".
@@michaelcelani8325 "The bar's over there." -- Knox Harrington, the video artist.
His dudeness, Duder, El Duderino....
This story is ludicrous
Jeff Bridges’ mane of beautiful hair is something else man.
Absolutely gorgeous hair.
when we go bowling one of us always yells 'over the line' really loud to see if anyone reacts appropriately....
Mark it 8 dude
"Smokey, this is not Nam, this is bowling, there are rules."
I did it dressed as Walter, right after a Dude Abides party.
These three, in this movie, are on the Goodfellas level of acting and storytelling and cinema. Legendary.
