Yesterday I saw _The Big Lebowski_ at the cinema.
Not a 'serious film', but very enjoyable nontheless.
At first I thought the lead character (played by Jeff
Bridges) was Billy
Conolly but the cut to a close-shot proved me wrong ;-)
Two elderly ladies sat in front, white haired both, (I kid
you not) and
they laughed and hooted along with the rest of the audience
through the
film with an obligatory fuck-in-every-line-of-the-script and
funny
violence.
Hard-boiled (well bleak social backdrop with violence and
drug use to
the fore), English, kind of serious, and new out on video is
_Nil By
Mouth_.
I don't know if it's out yet anywhere else than the UK, but
it's a
must-see for you all.
