drugs, rock-n-rollā¦ chips, dips, chains, whipsā¦ You know, your basic high school orgy type of thing. I mean, uh, Iām not talking candlewax on the nipples, or witchcraft or anything like that, no, no, no. Just a couple of hundred kids running around in their underwear, acting like complete animals.

Sarah Hughes: Paul, itās only a game!
Paul Ashworth: DONāT SAY THAT! Please! That is the worst, most stupid thing anyone could say! Cause it quite clearly isnāt āonly a game.ā I mean if it was do you honestly think Iād care this much? Eh? Eighteen years! Eight-teen years! Do you know what you wanted eighteen years ago? Or ten? Or five? Did you want to be Head of Year at North London Comprehensive, I doubt it. Iād doubt if you wanted anything for that long. And if you had, and if youād spent three months thinking that finally, FINALLY you were gonna get it and just when you think itās there itās taken away from youā¦ I mean I donāt care what it is, a car, a job, an Oscar, the babyā¦ then youād understand how I was feeling tonight. But there isnāt, and you donāt, soā¦
Sarah Hughes: So, so what, so fuck off, go home, leave you alone? Iāll tell you something Paul, there isnāt anything that Iāve wanted for eighteen years, cause I was a kid eighteen years ago. And if I did still want the same things Iād think Iād gone wrong somewhere, because actually I donāt want to marry David Cassidy, I donāt want bigger tits, I donāt want to do better on my mock-Os. Iāve stopped worrying about that kind of thing and maybe you should try.
Paul Ashworth: Well maybe thereās a big bit of you thatās gone missing somewhere, maybe everyone should want something theyāve always wanted.
Why is it that adults arenāt supposed to go mad about anything? You gotta keep a lid on it. And if you donāt then people are apparently entitled to say what they like. āYou havenāt grown up. Youāre a moron. Your conversation is trivial and boorish. You canāt express your emotional needs. You canāt relate to your children.ā And you die, lonely and miserable. But you know, what the hell, every cloud has a silver lining.
Stanley Matthews was playing First Division football when he was fifty.
Paul Ashworth: Iāll bet you any money you like youāre not playing First Division football when youāre fifty.
Steve: [looks at his cigarette] Well, no. Itās the smoking.
Paul Ashworth: Itās NOT the smoking, Steve. Itās the crapness.
Thatās not how the force works !

I genuinely divide people into two groups; those who love The Big Lebowski (generally sound as fuck) and those who donāt (Iāve got my eye on you, buddy).

I show this film each year to my students leaving 6th form. Itās possibly the most worthwhile thing I can do with my last 2 hours of educating them.

This pleases me greatly. I was a little underwhelmed the first time I watched it because Iād heard so much about it, and on first viewing, its pace can break expectations. It did with me, anyway, although I knew Iād seen some very quality lines - itās just a lot to process on first go.
The performances are intense. Characters overlap each other. Walter is just an asshole, who seems to be wrecking everything the Dude is trying to achieve, but with the exception of the burning question as to whether the Big Lebowski could walk, he was right about almost everything else.
Goodmanās finest ever performance, I reckon.

A Coen Brothers favourite:
That is a beautiful film, in terms of the way it looks, sounds and rolls. I need to watch it more often. They really donāt do bad films. Occasionally, theyāll pop one out that isnāt my cup of tea, but I find something about each of them very memorable.
