The Big Lebowski (Joel & Ethan Coen; U.S., 1998)
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at PFA Theater
(see times)
The official approach to a bowling lane is seven by sixteen feet. That means the sport takes place on 112 square feet of well-oiled lumber. All the spheroid gestures and delivery gyrations are confined to that insignificant rectangle; once the ball is down the lane, it’s definitely out of your hands. Jeff Bridges’s immortal pothead, “the Dude,” and his pals of the polyurethane orb (John Goodman, Steve Buscemi) utter the f*** word 292 times, blabbing an average of almost three utterances per square foot of the approach and only eight f***s shy of a perfect game. Laughter to spare.
• Written by the Coens. Photographed by Roger Deakins. With Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, Julianne Moore, Steve Buscemi. (117 mins, Color, DCP, From Universal Pictures)
