Film: Coen Brothers’ The Big Lebowski at Manchester Odeon

The Big Lebowski is one of the Coen brothers’ greatest films and now you can watch it on the big screen, all thanks to the crowdfunded cinema collective Manchester Classic Films. Starring John Goodman and Jeff Bridges, the film follows Jeff “The Dude” Lebowski dealing with a case of mistaken identity and a ruined rug, with the help of his bowling buddies. First released in 1998 to mixed reviews, over the years this has become a cult classic with an army of devoted fans. Manchester-based movie-lovers have voted in their droves for it to be shown at the Great Northern’s Odeon cinema, so put your DVD away and head along to see it in its full glory, surrounded by like-minded cult movie-lovers. The Manchester Classic Films group focuses on socialising before and after each screening in nearby pubs and bars, so dress up in your finest bowling gear and make a day of it.
