What do the words bowling and dude bring to mind? Drawing a blank? How about when you add Jeff Bridges and STL native John Goodman to the list? Still not getting it? I guess you are not one of the million cult followers of “The Big Lebowski!”

The plot line is crazy, chaotic, and hysterical in this 1998 classic. It is full of kidnapping, ransom, mistaken identity, blackmail, and a porn king. In the middle of all of the mayhem, Lebowski’s rug gets ruined and his bowling buddies are enlisted to help him get the money back for the damage.

Check out the trailer:
