THE DUDE
Today's film was the Coen Brothers
I don't know how I missed it but I did.
End to end jokes.
Chock full of mystery/thriller/B movie type clichés turned on their heads.
A lot of fun.
Great fantasy/dream shots.
And bowling. How I miss it!
Jeff Bridges holding the fort with John Goodman.
Steve Buscemi of course. It is a Coen film.
Cameos by Ben Gazzara and John Turturro. Sam Elliot.
It is the first movie that I actually liked Juliane Moore. Quite an accomplishment.
A good time was had by all.
There is no plot or, rather, it is all plots thrown into a pot together and somehow they all come out in a single credible (sorta) pile at the end.
I will give it a 4 out of Netflix5.
One of these months I am going to order all the Coens' films and see them chronologically end to end.
