I will defend to the death my belief that The Big Lebowski is not only one of the funniest movies ever made, but also one of the best, most tightly written ones, the kind of movie that is almost as funny to read in screenplay form as to watch.
It is just as funny when shorn of almost everything but the word "fuck":

Hi Nathan,
I have nothing to add to the ole Alberto Manguel blog, and nothing to add to the ole Jake Richler entry. No, I'm all about the Christopher Hitchens article. Madre de dios!!Could he be more offensive and could you be more cute and delightful? I've sent your url to my step-daughter, she of the insanely funny stand-up-ness. Yes, i've come to realize that you are married with little ones. But we've decided not to care. Nathan Whitlock is our Brad Pitt, our Joe Strummer, our Viggo Mortensen. In other words, our man among men.
keep it up, dude. You are awesome and smart and kind.
Susan D.
