The film, known for its idiosyncratic characters, surreal dream sequences, unconventional dialogue and eclectic soundtrack, has become a cult classic and has been called "the first cult film of the Internet era.

Jeff Bridges portrays Jeff Lebowski, an easygoing guy who insists on being called "The Dude." He's a fan of a special "White Russian" cocktail, marijuana, bowling with friends, and taking walks in his bathrobe. The Dude's laid-back lifestyle is disrupted when it turns out he shares the same name with a millionaire whose wife owes a lot of money to some dangerous people in Los Angeles.

Apart from psychedelic dream sequences with a bowling twist, it's the wealth of great characters and their insane dialogue that make this a memorable film
