The Big Lebowski Cometh
















Next round, Lone Star International Film Festival: Jeff Bridges and T-Bone Burnett chat before a large screen showing of The Big Lebowski at The Modern, munching on take-out from Kincaid's. Full house; I got this shot from the second row.

Bridges related one dude's theory about Donnie (Steve Buscemi): he is a figment of Walter's (John Goodman's) imagination. Said notion may work: Lebowski seems to never look at Donnie, and only a couple of times seems to speak to him directly. With the Coen brothers, who knows?










Today's Rune: Journey. Cheers from Tar Heel Land!

Very intersting theory, I never thought of that or noticed he didn't really engage with him. I think I need to rewatch Lebowski again.

Erik, my son can quote the entirety of The Big Lebowski! It's like a religion to those in his age group!

I think you'd appreciate this.
Interesting theory about Donnie. I hadn't thought about it before...
