In 1998 the Academy Award®-winning Coen brothers released the film The Big LebowskiÂthe hilariously quirky comedy-thriller about bowling, avant-garde art, nihilistic Austrians and a guy named . . . the Dude. Starring Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, Julianne Moore, Steve Buscemi, and John Turturro, The Big Lebowski has grown into a cult classic more than a decade after its original release.
Now Achievers everywhere can enjoy The Big Lebowski KitÂa boxful of fun, Lebowski-style, with:
 Oriental-rug mousepad that Â"really ties your desk togetherâ
 Severed big toeÂwith polish! (rubber)
 Magnet with the classic phrase, Â"The Dude Abidesâ
 Little Lebowski U! rban Achievers Certificate
 Â"the Dudeâ embroidered bowling-shirt patch
 32-page book with trivia and images from the film
Itâs great fun for everyoneÂeven nihilists!
The Big Lebowski begins with a case of mistaken identity which escalates when Jeffrey Lebowski-alias The Dude-attempts to seek recompense for the despoliation of his ratty-ass little rug, and then finds himself entangled in a kidnapping caper as a bagman-a situation that goes from bad to worse due to the interference of his hapless bowling partners.
In this film the Coen brothers have taken on the preoccupations of Raymond Chandler, but have given them a postmodern spin, while at the same time leaving Philip Marlowe's ethos intact as The Dude wanders through the fractured world of nineties L.A. trying to do the right thing. Like the award winning Fargo, The Big Lebowski is suffused with a droll humor and a verbal felicity that is as delightful as it is st! artling.
