Hello, what gets me now is that I never knew of " Jellies Shoes " until twenty years after the movie's release watching reactors. I must have been busy at the time and also it occurred during my lace up work boots phase. Jellies.
No one seem seems willing to follow the plot. Side characters appear and disappear, everyone has their own agenda. The plot is a frustrating exercise in trying to unravel the plot until we give up and say, “Fuck it, let’s go bowling.” It’s funny how both Lebowskis want to use the Dude for different ends, but for similar reasons: he’s a bum and a loser. The Big Lebowski wants him as a fall guy, Maude wants to be impregnated by someone easily dissuaded from taking responsibility.
Exactly. The movie keeps trending towards a classic film noir detective movie, but The Dude just won't go along with it. The movie happens around him without his participation. That's what is so awesome about it, like man.
Jeff Bridges, the dude, has been around since the 70s, and is in a lot of stuff, and him and Kurt Russell did have kind of a similar look back in the day. His brother Beau Bridges is also an actor, as was their father Loyd Bridges who you've seen in "Airplane". He was the guy in charge at the airport with the white hair who picked a hell of a time to quit whatever.
You might love the Dude in "Starman" a sci-fi love story back in the 80's. Jeff Bridges has been in a ton of flicks. He's played hippies, extra terrestrials, corrupt businessmen, cowboys, etc.
Mr. Lebowski (the millionaire in the wheelchair) was played by David Huddleston, who also played Olsen Johnson in "Blazing Saddles." When Cleavon Little took himself hostage at gunpoint, Huddleston said: "Hold it men, he's not bluffing!"
The Dude kind of just floats through life, reacting as things come, much like a tumbleweed. This is symbolized by the tumbleweed tumbling down the street at the top of the movie, serenaded by the song Tumbling Tumbleweeds. RE: the steer reference in this and the other movie: a steer is a neutered male cow, raised for beef.
Jeff Bridges comes from a acting family. The Bridges family is very well known in Hollywood. His grand father and all his brothers were all actors. The father Loyd Bridges was probably the most well known who played many roles. He was the one that “ picked the wrong day to quit sniffing glue” in the movie “Airplane”.
Remember Airplane ? The "I picked the wrong week to quit smoking..." guy? That was The Dude's father, LLoyd Bridges, who starred in the TV show Sea Hunt for years.
You absolutely need to watch "O Brother, Where Art Thou?". It's by the Coen brothers and features "the purple suit guy" along with appearances from many of the actors in this film. It's bonafide.
I was actually assigned to see this movie in a film class in college. Didn't completely love it the first time around. It is now one of my favorite movies of all time.
The Dude was played by Jeff Bridges and he's been in a ton of movies - Tron, Starman, The Fabulous Baker Boys, The Morning After, The Fisher King, Iron Man just to name a few
My favorite Coen Brothers movie is O Brother Where Art Thou. It's a great movie with a great soundtrack. It's probably one of their biggest commercial successes. It stars George Clooney, and John Goodman appears in it. I also liked their underrated movie, The Ladykillers, starring Tom Hanks. It's a remake of a 1955 Alec Guinness/Peter Sellers movie. Sam Elliot plays Virgil Earp in the great western film, Tombstone, but he's had a long career with a long list of films and tv shows. He's probably just as well known for his mustache and deep voice as for his acting.
Hi Dawn, Great reaction - as always. Here's the deal... •••• ••Bunny left to go away to visit friends without telling anyone. ••The German Nihilists learned of it somehow, and used the occasion of her disappearance to pretend that they kidnapped her and to try and extract a million dollars’ ransom from the Lebowski who lived in the mansion. ••That Lebowski, her husband, didn’t really want her back. He has no money of his own, so he used the circumstance of what he thought was her kidnapping, to steal the money from the charity trust, for himself. The Charity trust overseers, including Maude, would think that the money went to get Bunny back. But, the money would be used for himself. There was no money in the briefcase that wheelchair Lebowski gave the Dude, to begin with. ••Bunny owed money to Treehorn, so Treehorn was motivated collect that debt, so he had the Dude visit him, because he thought the Dude could lead him to it. He had the Dude drugged so that Treehorn could have his thugs search the Dude’s apartment. •••• There’s a lot of things you EXPECT to happen in the movie, but don’t (nihilism)… •Bunny was never kidnapped. •No one had their toe cut off against their will. •Donny wears many bowling shirts, but always with OTHER PEOPLES’ names on them - never his own name. •The Dude is never actually seen bowling, not once. •NO MONEY is ever exchanged between any two parties (Maybe with the exception of the check for 69 cents, that the Dude writes to the Supermarket.) •The Wheelchair Lebowski, doesn’t actually have any money. He disburses it on behalf of the real owners. •Since Wheelchair Lebowski doesn’t actually have his own money, HE is not actually the generous philanthropist he presents himself as. •Vietnam never relates to anything we see in the movie, even though Walter constantly talks about it. • ‘Shomer Shabbos’ translates to ‘observing the Sabbath.’ It means observing the Mitzvot (Commandments) associated with Judaism’s Shabbat. Walter views himself as taking the observance of the Shabbat restrictions seriously, but he actually doesn’t - in two different ways: - The overriding idea behind the Commandments, is that the person makes G-d, and observing G-d’s ways, into the center of the person’s life. (You’re allowed to break the restrictions of the Sabbath, but only in a true emergency that is likely to involve life-or-death.) When The Dude threatens Walter, “Come pick me up, or I’m off the bowling team,” that is not a life-or-death emergency. That Walter comes to pick up the Dude, moves the plot of the movie along, but it also demonstrates that Walter has made bowling and the tournament into the center of his life, not Judaism and not obeying G-d’s Commandments. If it were otherwise, Walter would have said, “My life will be more difficult if you’re not in it, and it will be a major blow to not compete in the tournament, but I don’t break the Sabbath for something that’s not a life-or-death emergency.” - Observing the Commandments is supposed to help produce a person who can control himself, and who embodies ‘Loving-Kindness.’ (Also, you can’t be happy, if you don’t have self-control). Walter is the exact opposite of such a person: He’s continuously out-of-control, filled with anger, and is almost always one inch away from losing it: screaming, shooting someone, or beating people up. He waves the ‘I observe the Shabbat’ thing in peoples’ faces, as part of his identity, while being the opposite of who G-d wants a person to be (the G-d he is supposedly doing these things for; he is an angry, out-of-control piece of work), and giving a bad name to religious Jews and Judaism: He’s the only way-out-of-control person you see in the film, and he’s also the only person we see, who makes a big deal of being ‘Shomer Shabbos’ . It wouldn’t be unreasonable for an ignorant person to associate the two things. (“If this is what the religion is all about, I’m staying the f__k away from it and all people connected with it.”) (I understand that 'Walter' is based on a real person, and the above may not have been what the Cohen Brothers intended (they wanted to create memorable characters and funny situations with layers, which they obviously did.) I'm merely noting it.)
8:18 I love that you said "Jesus" before knowing that was his name. LOL 32:00 A bit of useless trivia: The man we see rolling at the end was the owner of the bowling alley.
Edit: I love the Coen Brothers. Here’s a few fun facts for you. 1. Jeff Bridges used all his own clothes for the Dude. 2. During the scene when the Dude is sliding under the ladies legs, his wife volunteered and decided to lose her unmentionables for the shot 😂 3. ‘The Big Lebowski’ is inspired be ‘The Big Sleep’ apparently. Stellar editing and top notch choices, good lady. Subbed.
Ah such a good movie. Coen brothers are great. Raising Arizona is so good too. Oh brother where art thou is also great, plus it has one of the best soundtracks ever
So, the way you get your bowling ball to curve: There's a polish that you apply to your ball to keep them shiny and capable of moving very fast down the oiled lanes that keep the pins at the end of them. When you stand with the ball, your arm is kind of at a 45 degree angle and your palm is flat up holding the ball. On the approach you swing the arm back and forth in a pendulum motion for moment. Each lane has sets of arrows on them. You aim for those usually and not the pins. If you release the ball with a straight release, it should head pretty straight, sometimes with a slight curve. You want to hit the pins not quite dead on, aim at clipping the first pin but hitting the second row of pins. When you want the ball to curve, you have to aim a bit differently, but you rotate your hand when you release the ball instead of pushing it straight on. When you rotate your hand, the ball will have spin to it and if you can do it right the wax+oil+spin will get your ball to do nice and beautiful arcs.
A GIPE!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've never heard that word before, but I love it! I'm sure it means just what it sounds like! 😏 "I would rather see a chopped off peepee." Jeez Dawn, easy for YOU to say! 😢 Steer: A castrated bull, especially one raised for beef production. And "toochis" (the 'ch' is pronounced like the German 'ch', in the back of the throat, but a lot of people can't make that sound very easily, so the Cowboy pronounced it "tookis") is the Yiddish word for butt, bum, derriere, etc. ".....darker than a black steer's tookis on a moonless prairie night." 😆
The Cowboy was Sam Elliot. He's also in We Were Soldiers Once... Which was mentioned in the historically accurate war movies. He's also in Roadhouse, and just about half of all westerns made since 1980. The Dude was also in Bad Times at the El Royale, which is a ride in a lot of ways. He was also in Starman, which you'd probably like, Iron Man (Start of the marvel movies, so that's a year of content), and a bunch of other things. Steers are male cows that have been neutered.
Another great movie with Jeff Bridges (the Dude): Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. Also Steve Buscemi has an absolutely amazing cv (to mention a few: "Ed and His Dead Mother", "Threes Lounge" (which was also his directing debut), "Reservervoir Dogs", "Animal Factory" (also directed by him), "Fargo" (another Coen brothers masterpiece), "The Death of Stalin" and "Ghost World").
Another great reaction. It's based partly on the 40s film noirs, The Big Sleep, or the Maltese Falcon, but with a completely passive hero in place of Bogart. I find it gets even better with repeated viewings!
I live in Alberta Canada so I am able to help you with your question as to watt is a steer? Is a male cattle that has been castrated at a younger age won’t grow up to be as big and muscular as a bull. Steers, along with some of the cows will be used for beef. As where the bull and some of the cows will be used for breathing. So steers are castrated male cattle… P.S. You did ask the question not conversation I typically have lol..
The long finger nail on John Turturro implies that the character has a cocaine habit. A white Russian is vodka, Kahlua and milk. On another note, it cracks me up when you keep saying pee pee.
You have to hook the ball to make it curve in the lane. It's kind of like holding a beer can and bringing it to your face as your releasing the ball to put spin on it. It's fun to do once you figure it out.
If you like the guy with the mustache his name is Sam Elliott. I recommend Road House, also featuring Sam Elliott with Ben Gazzara who are also in this movie.
Love how the Dude borrows phrases, etc, through-out the movie. Including he borrows his landlord’s dance in his dream and of course borrows the cable man’s uniform in the dream sequence, too.
A steer is a castrated bull, usually raised for beef. Sam Elliott, the cowboy narrator, mispronounces tuchis as tookis. Tuchis is Yiddish for ass, bum, backside, "darker than a black steer's tuchis." Jeff Bridges, the Dude, is one of America's finest film actors. He has been in over 90 films and TV shows. The son of actor Lloyd Bridges (the guy in _Airplane!_ who guessed he picked the wrong day to quit smoking, drinking, amphetamines, sniffing glue), he started acting as a child on his father's popular TV show, _Sea Hunt._ Jeff Bridges has received Oscar nominations for seven of his films, winning Best Actor for _Crazy Horse_ (2009). A cult favorite film of his is _The Fisher King_ (1991), which also stars Robin Williams.
The long pinky fingernail is a drug reference. The idea is you grow your pinky fingernail long for dipping drugs out of a baggy, like cocaine or heroin. Famously there is a picture of Carrie Fisher in _Star Wars_ that shows her with an obviously long pinky fingernail. When it was pointed out to her she was confused. She admitted to being a _total_ drug addict at the time, but didn't use her pinky fingernail for that. (Carrie Fisher fought drug and alcohol addiction for much of her life.)
The Dude is played by Jeff Bridges, you should look him up he's been in soo many films, 'The Fisher King' is one of my favourites (also with Robin Williams... No need to say any more). John Goodman is also in a lot of films, 2(?) More Cohen Bros ones (Barton Fink is my favourite) but also Spielberg's 'Always' (with Richard Dreyfuss, Hooper from Jaws) 😮is an underated romantic treat and Sam Elliot is the cowboy with the epic moustache also in 'Road House' with Patrick Swayze and a bit of a cult classic
The Dude's favourite drink the White Russian is also one of my favourites. Take a glass with some ice add two parts vodka, one part Kahlua (or Tia Maria)top up with milk and stir. It has a nice milky coffee taste a bit sweet. For another Coen Brothers film try "Fargo", "Miller's Crossing" or their remake of "True Grit" which also stars Jeff Bridges.
That kid was an underrated funny element to this. The straight face through all the shouting, questions and even the neighbors car getting destroyed lol
I was wondering if you would recognize Knox Harrington, the guy giggling away with Maude Lebowski. : ) It's the same guy that plays Professor Lupin on Harry Potter. : )
The Dude (Jeff Bridges) is in Ironman, too. His brother (Bo) is in Jerry Maguire. His Dad (Lloyd) is in Airplane, The Rainmaker and High Noon among many others.
Between Cohen Bros and Mel Brooks movies I get 75% of my quotes 😀 Not sure about that movie but his name is Sam Elliott. He's been in a lot of great movies over the years.
Jeff Bridges is also in the Coen Bros brilliant western TRUE GRIT. You can see him being young and beautiful in THE LAST PICTURE SHOW (a tragic, beautiful film) FAT CITY (also tragic and beautiful), and the one that's maybe closest in tone to this, WINTER KILLS, a crazy paranoid thriller that's also very funny.
I lived with a dude who had that car. We called it The Tank. One night for obvious reasons it remained parked at a certain Chicago bar. I was the lucky guy who answered the phone when the police found it. You gotta understand, Sparky was...unique. Explaining to the cops that most of the (damage) was not honestly (vandalism) should have been my audition clip to the frickin UN. I had a drink after that. Walked a mile in the snow both ways to have a drink. If you ever are anywhere that is not Chicago, then you're allright. Hell envies that place.
The jellies were Jeff's own shoes; White Russian is a mixed drink that is the Dude's beverage (vodka w/Kahula w/creme & ice); the mustachioed gent - who narrates - is the great Sam Elliott and yep he's in STAR IS BORN; steer is a male cow basically cattle; Jackie Treehorn is the porn producer of the 'Logjammin' ' video. Jeff Bridges is a truly amazing actor - I recommend the following to see his range THUNDERBOLT & LIGHTFOOT (w/Clint Eastwood - his 1st Oscar nomination too); STARMAN; THE FISHER KING & FEARLESS off the top of my head. I knew you'd love this film.
Jef Bridges films include Crazy Heart for which he won the Best Actor Oscar, The Fabulous Baker Brothers with his brother Beau, Starman and the Fisher King with Robin Williams.
I have to say this again. I really enjoy watching your videos because they make me laugh. When you have a very stressful job, like I have, you just need something to make you laugh at least once a week.
No one on the internet says "pee pee" more than Dawn. Thanks for the reaction. Also Coen Brothers gold are the films Barton Fink (stars John Turturro, the man who played Jesus and John Goodman) and A Serious Man. Gratitude.
Great reaction, Dawn. Jeff Bridges was 'The Dude', Sam Elliott was the man with the mustache, Sam Elliott is in the excellent Western 'Tombstone' which is well worth watching, and 'Ghost Rider' with Nicholas Cage which is great fun, and 'Road House' with Patrick Swayze; Jeff Bridges is in 'The Fabulous Baker Boys', 'Jagged Edge', 'Nadine' 'The Vanishing', 'Starman' and 'Thunderbolt and Lightfoot' with Clint Eastwood, these are all great films.
Thank you for the reaction! There's a lot of trivia available for this film. My favorite being that the nihilist who was missing her toe was played by the lead singer of Til Tuesday (the 80s band that made the songs "Voices Carry" and my personal favorite of theirs, "Coming up Close").
The Dude is in True Grit, another Coen Brothers movie (not one of their comedies). It’s a remake of an old classic John Wayne Western. True Grit is one of my CB favorites.
This movie is kind of an homage in some ways to the old film noir classic, The Big Sleep, a Raymond Chandler story. The plot was so convoluted that Chandler entirely lost track of several characters and plot lines in the book. It didn't matter in the movie because of the iconic and sizzling acting and chemistry by Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall along with the rest of a talented cast. You can kind of see the plot elements of a noir type mystery but it's definitely given the Coen twist. To me The Dude is as much of an existential street philosopher as anything else. Lol.
Jeff Bridges is the son of actor, Lloyd Bridges, who played the air traffic controller ("looks like I picked the wrong day to quit taking amphetamines - Looks like I picked the wrong day to quit sniffing glue") in AIRPLANE!. The purple bowling guy is John Turturro. You could catch John Turturro and John Goodman both in OH BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? (2000) George Clooney, John Turturro, Tim Blake Nelson, also a Cohen piece, and very funny. I'd like to see your reaction to that. I always enjoy your reactions -
1) A steer is a bull (male cow) that has been castrated. It's typically done to make for faster growing and more tender beef. If it's done to make animals for farm work (in the 19th century) then it's call an ox, rather than a steer. 2) What did the doctor do? The doctor simply checked the Dude for "unpleasant diseases," in preparation for his use as a personal "sperm donor" for Maude.
Cynthia was brought up to show that Walter converted when he married her, and stayed Jewish after the divorce. Also, to show that for all his bluster and swagger, she still has him wrapped around her finger to the point that he dog-sits for her while she’s on vacation with her new boyfriend.
Shabbas is actually a Jewish tradition, where orthodox Jews from Sundown Friday to Sundown Saturday observe the Sabbath. They don't use the phone don't watch TV don't go to work, etc. and they spend Saturday at Temple
32:01 It's called Hooking, you basically rotate your hand just as you release the ball and the slick of the lane will cause the ball to spin in the direction perpendicular to which it is traveling, and depending on how you do it and how buffed the lane is, the spin will overcome the initial motion and cause the ball to curve back in the other direction...most all pros use this technique because as a matter of physics, you want to hit between the head pin and the next pin to the left or right, and you want to hit that gap straight on, so you need to curve the ball to hit that sweet spot...yeah, I used to play in a bowling league, and my favorite trick to do was see how far I could hook the ball to just skim the edge of the gutter but have it curve back to hit a strike...if you are familiar with pool or billiards, they call putting spin on the ball "English"...when you hit the cue ball off-center to make it ricochet in a particular way... Now that I think about it, there are many similarities between billiards and bowling...they are both basically math/physics games with little actual physical effort required...though a billiard ball may only weigh ounces and you only really have to hold the cue-stick, a bowling ball can be anywhere from 8-20 lbs...Personally, I used a 13lb. ball...my mom used an 8lb. ball and though I had much more practice, she did almost as well (Even after back surgery!)...but when I tried her ball, I thought I broke the lane the first time because it was so light and one of my fingers got stuck and I threw it half-way down the lane before it hit the ground...bowling is a nuanced sport, but one you can play just as well casually as professionally...again, just like billiards...
So when you said you'd rather see a cut off one of those rather than a cut off to my head it was just like yeah I got an imitation one of those my top drawer
To make the bowling ball curve, you put "English" on it, by making it spin. Jeff Bridges, you'll love "The Fabulous Baker Boys" - "Fearless" is another fave... Sam Elliot is Mr Epic Mustache - "Roadhouse" with Patrick Swayze is up your alley... My fave is "Mask" with Cher. I can't remember your other questions, it's 4am in Seattle and you're keeping me up.... "In a nice way that is..." - Groucho
The one long pinky fingernail was referred to as a "coke nail". So the person could more easily dig it into their bag of nose candy and inhale while on the go.

Dawn Marie, A Steer is a castrated bull. They castrate them to make them behave, and I think because it makes the beef taste better. An Ox is a steer that pulls a plow or has some other kind of work it does for people.
A steer is a male cow that has been castrated. The are used in cow-calf operations. The purpose of the castration is to maker them put on more fat in preparation for sale for beef.
Movies made by the Coen brothers are always crazy and usually brilliant. TEhe Dude is Jeff Bridges and is in a lot of movies. There is one with his brother Beau also in it called the Baker Brothers that is really good.
You just got yourself a new subscriber, nice lady! I was impressed by how observant you were, and how much you caught in this movie that a lot of people miss on the first viewing. And you kept it fun with your comments! Great job!
Yes, we ALL know that Jeff Bridges as Lebowski was exceptional and cannot be beat, but have you experienced the full Jeff Bridges? If not, you need to see him in The Last Picture Show, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, Heaven's Gate, Tron, Starman, Nadine, Tucker, The Fabulous Baker Boys, and The Old Man. Only then, will you fully understand the range of this four-time Oscar nominee. The guy simply rocks in his roles (yes, that pun was intentional). Yes, hats off to John Goodman here too.
You will notice new things every time you watch... It's an amazingly crafted movie. If you pay very close attention, you notice that the Dude post dated the check he wrote to pay for the milk.
When I was in the Marine Corps we had a platoon sergeant Named Dejesus and when we were in formation someone would always say "Nobody fucks with Dejesus" just like it's said in the movie and he hated this movie because of that line.
Yes the beauty of the movie is that it is an open question, the glint in they eye and the casual comment over the shoulder. It is for fun and that's it. And that's wonderful, don't you think? Cheers Marie 🍺
Re: the doctor, it's implied that he checked out the dude's junk to ensure that he was fertile, and then reported back to Maude so she could sleep with him to conceive.
Yes, I believe the doctor (or his nurse) obtained a semen sample. The Dude was is a VERY good mood after. wink wink nudge nudge.

Jeff Bridges comes from a acting family. The Bridges family is very well known in Hollywood. His grand father and all his brothers were all actors. The father Loyd Bridges was probably the most well known who played many roles. He was the one that “ picked the wrong day to quit sniffing glue” in the movie “Airplane”.

Jeff Bridges is a national treasure. My favorite movie of his is THUNDERBOLT AND LIGHTFOOT also with Clint Eastwood
This movie left me feeling confused too on first watch. It's one of my favorite movies now. It definitely benefits from rewatchting.
I was actually assigned to see this movie in a film class in college. Didn't completely love it the first time around. It is now one of my favorite movies of all time.
I also didn't like it initially, possibly because I was told it was hilarious and, when I watched it, I just didn't find it so.

My favorite Coen Brothers movie is O Brother Where Art Thou. It's a great movie with a great soundtrack. It's probably one of their biggest commercial successes.

••The German Nihilists learned of it somehow, and used the occasion of her disappearance to pretend that they kidnapped her and to try and extract a million dollars’ ransom from the Lebowski who lived in the mansion.
••That Lebowski, her husband, didn’t really want her back. He has no money of his own, so he used the circumstance of what he thought was her kidnapping, to steal the money from the charity trust, for himself. The Charity trust overseers, including Maude, would think that the money went to get Bunny back. But, the money would be used for himself. There was no money in the briefcase that wheelchair Lebowski gave the Dude, to begin with.
••Bunny owed money to Treehorn, so Treehorn was motivated collect that debt, so he had the Dude visit him, because he thought the Dude could lead him to it. He had the Dude drugged so that Treehorn could have his thugs search the Dude’s apartment.
••••
There’s a lot of things you EXPECT to happen in the movie, but don’t (nihilism)…
•Bunny was never kidnapped.
•No one had their toe cut off against their will.
•Donny wears many bowling shirts, but always with OTHER PEOPLES’ names on them - never his own name.
•The Dude is never actually seen bowling, not once.
•NO MONEY is ever exchanged between any two parties (Maybe with the exception of the check for 69 cents, that the Dude writes to the Supermarket.)
•The Wheelchair Lebowski, doesn’t actually have any money. He disburses it on behalf of the real owners.
•Since Wheelchair Lebowski doesn’t actually have his own money, HE is not actually the generous philanthropist he presents himself as.
•Vietnam never relates to anything we see in the movie, even though Walter constantly talks about it.
• ‘Shomer Shabbos’ translates to ‘observing the Sabbath.’ It means observing the Mitzvot (Commandments) associated with Judaism’s Shabbat. Walter views himself as taking the observance of the Shabbat restrictions seriously, but he actually doesn’t - in two different ways:
- The overriding idea behind the Commandments, is that the person makes G-d, and observing G-d’s ways, into the center of the person’s life. (You’re allowed to break the restrictions of the Sabbath, but only in a true emergency that is likely to involve life-or-death.) When The Dude threatens Walter, “Come pick me up, or I’m off the bowling team,” that is not a life-or-death emergency. That Walter comes to pick up the Dude, moves the plot of the movie along, but it also demonstrates that Walter has made bowling and the tournament into the center of his life, not Judaism and not obeying G-d’s Commandments.
If it were otherwise, Walter would have said, “My life will be more difficult if you’re not in it, and it will be a major blow to not compete in the tournament, but I don’t break the Sabbath for something that’s not a life-or-death emergency.”
- Observing the Commandments is supposed to help produce a person who can control himself, and who embodies ‘Loving-Kindness.’ (Also, you can’t be happy, if you don’t have self-control). Walter is the exact opposite of such a person: He’s continuously out-of-control, filled with anger, and is almost always one inch away from losing it: screaming, shooting someone, or beating people up. He waves the ‘I observe the Shabbat’ thing in peoples’ faces, as part of his identity, while being the opposite of who G-d wants a person to be (the G-d he is supposedly doing these things for; he is an angry, out-of-control piece of work), and giving a bad name to religious Jews and Judaism: He’s the only way-out-of-control person you see in the film, and he’s also the only person we see, who makes a big deal of being ‘Shomer Shabbos’ .
It wouldn’t be unreasonable for an ignorant person to associate the two things. (“If this is what the religion is all about, I’m staying the f__k away from it and all people connected with it.”)
(I understand that 'Walter' is based on a real person, and the above may not have been what the Cohen Brothers intended (they wanted to create memorable characters and funny situations with layers, which they obviously did.) I'm merely noting it.)
"I wasn't listening" was the best line and scene in the movie.
8:18 I love that you said "Jesus" before knowing that was his name. LOL
32:00 A bit of useless trivia: The man we see rolling at the end was the owner of the bowling alley.
The Cowboy guy was Sam Elliott. If y'all haven't reacted to 'Tombstone' yet, he's in it and it's a great film you'd like
Edit: I love the Coen Brothers. Here’s a few fun facts for you.
1. Jeff Bridges used all his own clothes for the Dude.
2. During the scene when the Dude is sliding under the ladies legs, his wife volunteered and decided to lose her unmentionables for the shot 😂
3. ‘The Big Lebowski’ is inspired be ‘The Big Sleep’ apparently.
Stellar editing and top notch choices, good lady. Subbed.
Never knew that about his wife being in that scene
People shouldn't use "Easter egg" if they don't know what it really is.
@@eatsmylifeYT Quite right. I’m from the UK. It’s always comforting to have the opinion of an expert. Thank you.
You COULD easily edit it to say "a few FUN FACTS..." 🤔
And their name is spelled "Coen", not "Cohen"...just sayin'
@@deepermind4884 excellent idea. The Dude abides. 👍
Ah such a good movie. Coen brothers are great. Raising Arizona is so good too. Oh brother where art thou is also great, plus it has one of the best soundtracks ever
So, the way you get your bowling ball to curve:
There's a polish that you apply to your ball to keep them shiny and capable of moving very fast down the oiled lanes that keep the pins at the end of them.
When you stand with the ball, your arm is kind of at a 45 degree angle and your palm is flat up holding the ball. On the approach you swing the arm back and forth in a pendulum motion for moment. Each lane has sets of arrows on them. You aim for those usually and not the pins. If you release the ball with a straight release, it should head pretty straight, sometimes with a slight curve. You want to hit the pins not quite dead on, aim at clipping the first pin but hitting the second row of pins. When you want the ball to curve, you have to aim a bit differently, but you rotate your hand when you release the ball instead of pushing it straight on. When you rotate your hand, the ball will have spin to it and if you can do it right the wax+oil+spin will get your ball to do nice and beautiful arcs.
A GIPE!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've never heard that word before, but I love it! I'm sure it means just what it sounds like! 😏
"I would rather see a chopped off peepee." Jeez Dawn, easy for YOU to say! 😢
Steer: A castrated bull, especially one raised for beef production. And "toochis" (the 'ch' is pronounced like the German 'ch', in the back of the throat, but a lot of people can't make that sound very easily, so the Cowboy pronounced it "tookis") is the Yiddish word for butt, bum, derriere, etc. ".....darker than a black steer's tookis on a moonless prairie night." 😆
The short goon in leather is Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers if you're interested :)
The Cowboy was Sam Elliot. He's also in We Were Soldiers Once... Which was mentioned in the historically accurate war movies. He's also in Roadhouse, and just about half of all westerns made since 1980.
The Dude was also in Bad Times at the El Royale, which is a ride in a lot of ways. He was also in Starman, which you'd probably like, Iron Man (Start of the marvel movies, so that's a year of content), and a bunch of other things.
Steers are male cows that have been neutered.
There's no such thing as a male cow. Male cattle are called bulls.
The long pinky finger is actually for snorting cocaine
Another great movie with Jeff Bridges (the Dude): Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. Also Steve Buscemi has an absolutely amazing cv (to mention a few: "Ed and His Dead Mother", "Threes Lounge" (which was also his directing debut), "Reservervoir Dogs", "Animal Factory" (also directed by him), "Fargo" (another Coen brothers masterpiece), "The Death of Stalin" and "Ghost World").
Trees Lounge 🙂
@@OklasoonaHomer oups 😄 right you are!
Another great reaction. It's based partly on the 40s film noirs, The Big Sleep, or the Maltese Falcon, but with a completely passive hero in place of Bogart. I find it gets even better with repeated viewings!
I live in Alberta Canada so I am able to help you with your question as to watt is a steer? Is a male cattle that has been castrated at a younger age won’t grow up to be as big and muscular as a bull. Steers, along with some of the cows will be used for beef. As where the bull and some of the cows will be used for breathing. So steers are castrated male cattle… P.S. You did ask the question not conversation I typically have lol..
The long finger nail on John Turturro implies that the character has a cocaine habit. A white Russian is vodka, Kahlua and milk. On another note, it cracks me up when you keep saying pee pee.
This movie ages like wine.
Jeff Bridges is wonderful in "Crazy Heart" about a singer on the way down in his career & his life, I think he won the Oscar for it.
He did.
You have to hook the ball to make it curve in the lane. It's kind of like holding a beer can and bringing it to your face as your releasing the ball to put spin on it. It's fun to do once you figure it out.
If you like the guy with the mustache his name is Sam Elliott. I recommend Road House, also featuring Sam Elliott with Ben Gazzara who are also in this movie.
Love how the Dude borrows phrases, etc, through-out the movie. Including he borrows his landlord’s dance in his dream and of course borrows the cable man’s uniform in the dream sequence, too.
guys break into his apartment and he tells them "uh hey, this is a private residence, man"
hahaha, love this film
A steer is a castrated bull, usually raised for beef. Sam Elliott, the cowboy narrator, mispronounces tuchis as tookis. Tuchis is Yiddish for ass, bum, backside, "darker than a black steer's tuchis."
Jeff Bridges, the Dude, is one of America's finest film actors. He has been in over 90 films and TV shows. The son of actor Lloyd Bridges (the guy in _Airplane!_ who guessed he picked the wrong day to quit smoking, drinking, amphetamines, sniffing glue), he started acting as a child on his father's popular TV show, _Sea Hunt._ Jeff Bridges has received Oscar nominations for seven of his films, winning Best Actor for _Crazy Horse_ (2009). A cult favorite film of his is _The Fisher King_ (1991), which also stars Robin Williams.
Note that _The Fisher King_ was also directed by Monty Python alumnus Terry Gilliam. Dawn would probably love it.
The long pinky fingernail is a drug reference. The idea is you grow your pinky fingernail long for dipping drugs out of a baggy, like cocaine or heroin. Famously there is a picture of Carrie Fisher in _Star Wars_ that shows her with an obviously long pinky fingernail. When it was pointed out to her she was confused. She admitted to being a _total_ drug addict at the time, but didn't use her pinky fingernail for that. (Carrie Fisher fought drug and alcohol addiction for much of her life.)
Isn't it what killed her? I think she had cocaine in her system that caused her to have a heart attack while on a plane, IIRC.
The Dude is played by Jeff Bridges, you should look him up he's been in soo many films, 'The Fisher King' is one of my favourites (also with Robin Williams... No need to say any more). John Goodman is also in a lot of films, 2(?) More Cohen Bros ones (Barton Fink is my favourite) but also Spielberg's 'Always' (with Richard Dreyfuss, Hooper from Jaws) 😮is an underated romantic treat and Sam Elliot is the cowboy with the epic moustache also in 'Road House' with Patrick Swayze and a bit of a cult classic
The Dude's favourite drink the White Russian is also one of my favourites. Take a glass with some ice add two parts vodka, one part Kahlua (or Tia Maria)top up with milk and stir. It has a nice milky coffee taste a bit sweet. For another Coen Brothers film try "Fargo", "Miller's Crossing" or their remake of "True Grit" which also stars Jeff Bridges.
That kid was an underrated funny element to this. The straight face through all the shouting, questions and even the neighbors car getting destroyed lol
I was wondering if you would recognize Knox Harrington, the guy giggling away with Maude Lebowski. : ) It's the same guy that plays Professor Lupin on Harry Potter. : )
"You're not wrong Walter. You're just an asshole." among so many good lines, this is my favorite quote
This is mandatory viewing for so many reasons. Writing, comedy, noir, acting, soundtrack, cinematography, editing.
The Dude (Jeff Bridges) is in Ironman, too.
His brother (Bo) is in Jerry Maguire.
His Dad (Lloyd) is in Airplane, The Rainmaker and High Noon among many others.
Between Cohen Bros and Mel Brooks movies I get 75% of my quotes 😀
Not sure about that movie but his name is Sam Elliott. He's been in a lot of great movies over the years.
The most eclectic comedy I've ever seen. The doctor gave the Dude a full physical so Maude knew he was in good physical health to father a child.
"At least he peed on your rug and not your carpet, it's a lot easier to clean." LMAO
Jeff Bridges is also in the Coen Bros brilliant western TRUE GRIT. You can see him being young and beautiful in THE LAST PICTURE SHOW (a tragic, beautiful film) FAT CITY (also tragic and beautiful), and the one that's maybe closest in tone to this, WINTER KILLS, a crazy paranoid thriller that's also very funny.
I lived with a dude who had that car. We called it The Tank. One night for obvious reasons it remained parked at a certain Chicago bar. I was the lucky guy who answered the phone when the police found it. You gotta understand, Sparky was...unique. Explaining to the cops that most of the (damage) was not honestly (vandalism) should have been my audition clip to the frickin UN. I had a drink after that. Walked a mile in the snow both ways to have a drink. If you ever are anywhere that is not Chicago, then you're allright. Hell envies that place.
The jellies were Jeff's own shoes; White Russian is a mixed drink that is the Dude's beverage (vodka w/Kahula w/creme & ice); the mustachioed gent - who narrates - is the great Sam Elliott and yep he's in STAR IS BORN; steer is a male cow basically cattle; Jackie Treehorn is the porn producer of the 'Logjammin' ' video. Jeff Bridges is a truly amazing actor - I recommend the following to see his range THUNDERBOLT & LIGHTFOOT (w/Clint Eastwood - his 1st Oscar nomination too); STARMAN; THE FISHER KING & FEARLESS off the top of my head. I knew you'd love this film.
“It’s like wolf of Wall Street” “Im always right” except when im totally wrong
Jef Bridges films include Crazy Heart for which he won the Best Actor Oscar, The Fabulous Baker Brothers with his brother Beau, Starman and the Fisher King with Robin Williams.
Oh man, that rug really brought the room together.
That moustache belongs to a man named Sam Elliot.
I have to say this again. I really enjoy watching your videos because they make me laugh. When you have a very stressful job, like I have, you just need something to make you laugh at least once a week.
No one on the internet says "pee pee" more than Dawn. Thanks for the reaction. Also Coen Brothers gold are the films Barton Fink (stars John Turturro, the man who played Jesus and John Goodman) and A Serious Man. Gratitude.
Great reaction, Dawn. Jeff Bridges was 'The Dude', Sam Elliott was the man with the mustache, Sam Elliott is in the excellent Western 'Tombstone' which is well worth watching, and 'Ghost Rider' with Nicholas Cage which is great fun, and 'Road House' with Patrick Swayze; Jeff Bridges is in 'The Fabulous Baker Boys', 'Jagged Edge', 'Nadine' 'The Vanishing', 'Starman' and 'Thunderbolt and Lightfoot' with Clint Eastwood, these are all great films.
Ben Gazzara is also in Road House.
@@philiparonson8315 Yes, he is, thank you, I'd forgotten for the moment.
If you like the guy with the mustache, his name is Sam Elliot. He was in Roadhouse, Tombstone, Rush, and The Hero.
Dawn your sense of humor is priceless...bless you.
Just another acknowledgement about how cute Dawn Marie is.
Phone's ringin', Dude.
Thank you for the reaction!
There's a lot of trivia available for this film. My favorite being that the nihilist who was missing her toe was played by the lead singer of Til Tuesday (the 80s band that made the songs "Voices Carry" and my personal favorite of theirs, "Coming up Close").
Really? Who knew! Thanks for that random fact. 😄
Aimee Mann, she's had an interesting solo career too and now is piling up some acting credits as well
And the short one of the three male German nihilists is Flea, the bassist of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
The Dude is in True Grit, another Coen Brothers movie (not one of their comedies). It’s a remake of an old classic John Wayne Western. True Grit is one of my CB favorites.
The "long pinky nail" is for snorting cocaine.
This movie is kind of an homage in some ways to the old film noir classic, The Big Sleep, a Raymond Chandler story. The plot was so convoluted that Chandler entirely lost track of several characters and plot lines in the book. It didn't matter in the movie because of the iconic and sizzling acting and chemistry by Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall along with the rest of a talented cast. You can kind of see the plot elements of a noir type mystery but it's definitely given the Coen twist. To me The Dude is as much of an existential street philosopher as anything else. Lol.
Jeff Bridges is the son of actor, Lloyd Bridges, who played the air traffic controller ("looks like I picked the wrong day to quit taking amphetamines - Looks like I picked the wrong day to quit sniffing glue") in AIRPLANE!.
The purple bowling guy is John Turturro.
You could catch John Turturro and John Goodman both in
OH BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? (2000) George Clooney, John Turturro, Tim Blake Nelson,
also a Cohen piece, and very funny. I'd like to see your reaction to that.
I always enjoy your reactions -
1) A steer is a bull (male cow) that has been castrated. It's typically done to make for faster growing and more tender beef. If it's done to make animals for farm work (in the 19th century) then it's call an ox, rather than a steer.
2) What did the doctor do? The doctor simply checked the Dude for "unpleasant diseases," in preparation for his use as a personal "sperm donor" for Maude.
John Goodman is in O brother where art thou, sam elliott is in the Saketts with Tom selleck.....
Cynthia was brought up to show that Walter converted when he married her, and stayed Jewish after the divorce. Also, to show that for all his bluster and swagger, she still has him wrapped around her finger to the point that he dog-sits for her while she’s on vacation with her new boyfriend.
Shabbas is actually a Jewish tradition, where orthodox Jews from Sundown Friday to Sundown Saturday observe the Sabbath. They don't use the phone don't watch TV don't go to work, etc. and they spend Saturday at Temple
But do they roll?
@@memonk11 They sure as hell don't f**king roll!
@@Lewis9700 The ONLY correct response!
32:01 It's called Hooking, you basically rotate your hand just as you release the ball and the slick of the lane will cause the ball to spin in the direction perpendicular to which it is traveling, and depending on how you do it and how buffed the lane is, the spin will overcome the initial motion and cause the ball to curve back in the other direction...most all pros use this technique because as a matter of physics, you want to hit between the head pin and the next pin to the left or right, and you want to hit that gap straight on, so you need to curve the ball to hit that sweet spot...yeah, I used to play in a bowling league, and my favorite trick to do was see how far I could hook the ball to just skim the edge of the gutter but have it curve back to hit a strike...if you are familiar with pool or billiards, they call putting spin on the ball "English"...when you hit the cue ball off-center to make it ricochet in a particular way...
Now that I think about it, there are many similarities between billiards and bowling...they are both basically math/physics games with little actual physical effort required...though a billiard ball may only weigh ounces and you only really have to hold the cue-stick, a bowling ball can be anywhere from 8-20 lbs...Personally, I used a 13lb. ball...my mom used an 8lb. ball and though I had much more practice, she did almost as well (Even after back surgery!)...but when I tried her ball, I thought I broke the lane the first time because it was so light and one of my fingers got stuck and I threw it half-way down the lane before it hit the ground...bowling is a nuanced sport, but one you can play just as well casually as professionally...again, just like billiards...
It's probably been answered a dozen times, but the doctor was to give The Dude a clean bill of health.
This is a movie that rewards rewatching. Each time you'll spot something new.
So when you said you'd rather see a cut off one of those rather than a cut off to my head it was just like yeah I got an imitation one of those my top drawer
The Doctor was a urologist who was checking the Dudes junk to make sure he had "swimmers" so he could impregnate Maude
To make the bowling ball curve, you put "English" on it, by making it spin. Jeff Bridges, you'll love "The Fabulous Baker Boys" - "Fearless" is another fave... Sam Elliot is Mr Epic Mustache - "Roadhouse" with Patrick Swayze is up your alley... My fave is "Mask" with Cher. I can't remember your other questions, it's 4am in Seattle and you're keeping me up.... "In a nice way that is..." - Groucho
The one long pinky fingernail was referred to as a "coke nail". So the person could more easily dig it into their bag of nose candy and inhale while on the go.
John Goodman had a great part in "O Brother Where Art Thou", a comedy loosely based on The Odyssey. Another Coen Brothers film. GREAT music! George Clooney and Holly Hunter are great. You need to give it a watch!

Dawn Marie, A Steer is a castrated bull. They castrate them to make them behave, and I think because it makes the beef taste better. An Ox is a steer that pulls a plow or has some other kind of work it does for people.
A steer is a male cow that has been castrated. The are used in cow-calf operations. The purpose of the castration is to maker them put on more fat in preparation for sale for beef.
They stick his head in the toilet and Dawn says "oh his milk"
Movies made by the Coen brothers are always crazy and usually brilliant. TEhe Dude is Jeff Bridges and is in a lot of movies. There is one with his brother Beau also in it called the Baker Brothers that is really good.
You just got yourself a new subscriber, nice lady! I was impressed by how observant you were, and how much you caught in this movie that a lot of people miss on the first viewing. And you kept it fun with your comments! Great job!
One Of My All Time Favorite Movie's, Great Reaction To This Great Classic Movie Sweetheart
Never bring a sword to a bowling fight.
Yes, we ALL know that Jeff Bridges as Lebowski was exceptional and cannot be beat, but have you experienced the full Jeff Bridges? If not, you need to see him in The Last Picture Show, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, Heaven's Gate, Tron, Starman, Nadine, Tucker, The Fabulous Baker Boys, and The Old Man. Only then, will you fully understand the range of this four-time Oscar nominee. The guy simply rocks in his roles (yes, that pun was intentional). Yes, hats off to John Goodman here too.
i'm already subscribed, I always like your content, and NOW I have commented too! Keep 'em coming!
8:15 that’s a coke nail lmao
25:52 I think that the doctor only examined him to see if he was healthy in all aspects, to make sure that the possible child would be healthy.😊
I always liked how everything the dude says is just poorly repeating something someone else said earlier in the movie
You will notice new things every time you watch...
It's an amazingly crafted movie.
If you pay very close attention, you notice that the Dude post dated the check he wrote to pay for the milk.
When I was in the Marine Corps we had a platoon sergeant Named Dejesus and when we were in formation someone would always say "Nobody fucks with Dejesus" just like it's said in the movie and he hated this movie because of that line.
Yes the beauty of the movie is that it is an open question, the glint in they eye and the casual comment over the shoulder.
It is for fun and that's it. And that's wonderful, don't you think?
Cheers Marie 🍺
