Just throw the fu**ing ball, man! Sometimes you eat the bear, and sometimes, well, he eats you ; It's down there somewhere, let me take another look ; Dude, you're being very unDude -- The Dude abides and the Dude is not in. Yeah, well, ya know, that's just like, uh, your opinion, man ; Phone's ringin', Dude ; New sh** has come to light -- That rug really tied the room together, did it not? You know, Dude, I myself dabbled in pacifism at one point. Not in 'Nam, of course ; You mean coitus? ; What makes a man, Mr. Lebowski? ; What do you do, Mr. Lebowski? ; Nothing's fu**ed, Dude -- Enjoyin' my coffee. Sorry, I wasn't listening ; Strikes and gutters, ups and downs ; Some burgers, some beers, a few laughs. Our fu**ing troubles are over, Dude ; Say, friend, ya got any more of that good sarsaparilla?
A dialogue between the actor and his long-time spiritual guru explores the challenges of Bridges' Hollywood career and the ways in which Zen teachings have informed his efforts to do good in the modern world.
