“Like we would ever DREAM of stealing your bullshit money!” -A day after trying to steal Lebowski’s bullshit money 😆 Walter is an unreliable narrator lol
On my latest rewatch, I noticed that there was basically no wind blowing the Dude's hair throughout the eulogy, but then when Walter was about to dump the ashes the Dude's hair was blowing around like crazy. They must have shot the eulogy and the ashes blowing on different days...
I do know it often gets windy there- I mean why wouldn’t it be? But studios and especially people like the Coen Brothers leave nothing to chance. I would honestly be shocked if they didn’t use a fan. It’s very tough shooting scenes when you need weather and you can’t control it. You can control a fan to do exactly what you need to accomplish. I haven’t seen any behind the scenes images from this shooting local but I would bet it looked like any other outdoor shot, full of lighting, cameras and at least 30 crew members on site. This was a multimillion dollar movie after all. The wind doesn’t always perform when you call action and delays kill budgets more than anything
I also have a theory that Walter was never a combatant in the army, just a paper pusher or some other much safer job, and he has survivor's guilt over those that actually did die.
I would hope that Walter would vehemently oppose a guy who dodged the draft and then years later publicly declared that heroes don't get shot down in reference to a real-life POW of that same war he dodged. He then tried to cancel the funeral of that veteran.
Walter would never support a politician who calls a universally respected 4-star General as "over-rated". He would never support a commander in chief who salutes a foreign officer, especially one from Morth Korea. What kind of patriot would support someone who disrespects our military this way?
Right. This is the thing that needs to be remembered. The Dude suggested it first, and then Walter ran with it full bore for the rest of the movie, even at times when The Dude was being verry un-Dude
He isn't even right about prior restraint in the sense that the first amendment issues around prior restraint -- which are about the government pre-preemptively suppressing speech/expression -- don't apply to the conduct expectations in a private establishment.
Pretty sure a private business can have you removed from their property for causing a disturbance. But keeping aquatic rodents in the city limits for, domestic, you know.......
OUR society DOES think. that pulling a gun in a bowling alley is the correct response for someone's toe going over the line, so yes, this does still check out!
No. Not really. He was a crazy reactionary who probably should have had his guns confiscated. He self righteously fucked up all over the place. Adulations for Theodore Herzl?
