In 1998, the Coen Brothers followed the global success of their smash hit Fargo with a rambling tale of lies, corruption and bowling in early 90s LA - The Big Lebowski. It flopped at the box office. But in the years that followed, the movie took on a life of its own, spawning a culture of quotable lines, White Russians and even Lebowski Fest, an annual event attracting thousands of Big Lebowski die-hards. In I'm a Lebowski, You're a Lebowski ('That's terrific') the curators of Lebowski Fest offer the complete guide to one of the few true cult movies of the last twenty years, with photographs, real locations and interviews with the stars of the film, including John Turturro, John Goodman and Julianne Moore - and a foreword by the Dude himself, Jeff Bridges. The book also contains a glossary, trivia questions and the ultimate soundtrack listing - in other words, the whole Lebowski.
Within the pages of this book, you'll find out how to order a White Russian like an Achiever, how to react when an Asian-American pees on your rug, how to think like a nihilist, and more. You'll also read interviews with the real-life eccentrics who inspired the film's main characters, the actors who played them, and the famous siblings who conjured the whole thing up. We'll throw ourselves into the mix as well, hopping into our own Dude-mobile (a 1972 Plymouth Fury III, complete with rust colorations just like the movie) to journey around the country gathering interviews and anecdotes. We'll also reveal our own stories about how we came to love the movie and launch Lebowski Fest.

The Dude abides. . .
In 1998, the Coen Brothers followed the global success of their smash hit Fargo with a rambling tale of lies, corruption and bowling in early '90s L.A. - The Big Lebowski. It flopped at the box office. But in the years that followed, the movie took on a life of its own, spawning a culture of quotable lines ('You're entering a world of pain', 'Mark it 8', 'That rug really tied the room together'), White Russians and even Lebowski Fest, an annual event attracting thousands of Big Lebowski die-hards.
In I'm a Lebowski, You're a Lebowski ('That's terrific') the curators of Lebowski Fest offer the complete guide to one of the few true cult movies of the last ten years, with photographs, trivia, interviews with the people who inspired the characters and events in the film, and with the stars themselves, including Philip Seymour Hoffman, John Goodman and Julianne Moore. There's even a foreword by the Dude himself, Jeff Bridges. The book also contains a by-your-side guide to watching the film, a lowdown on the Lebowski Fests so far and the ultimate soundtrack listing - in other words, the whole Lebowski.
