Life Lessons from "The Dude": Philosophy in The Big Lebowski

Good Is In The Details

Gwendolyn Dolske and Rudy Salo talk with Philosophy Professor and Poet, Troy Jollimore, about his  essay "That Ain't Legal Either. Rules, Virtue, and Authenticity in The Big Lebowski," (co-author Robert C. Jones). How does "The Dude" view life, conflict, and morality?  What can we learn from Walter's point of view on right and wrong? We discuss games, humor, absurdity, and friendship through the lens of The Big Lebowski.
