Outdoor Cinema: The Big Lebowski

30 September 2021, 7:00 pm-
Roger Stevens

Price: £5

A case of mistaken identity provides the basis for this offbeat thriller featuring Jeff Bridges as Jeff Lebowski. The story opens as thugs break into Lebowski's apartment in the errant belief that they are accosting Jeff Lebowski, the eccentric philanthropist, and not the laid back, unemployed Jeff Lebowski known as 'The Dude'. In the aftermath of the crime, The Dude seeks restitution from his wealthy namesake. But instead of getting a replacement for his soiled carpet, The Dude is swept up in a caper involving loan sharks and kidnapping. Featured among the ensemble are John Goodman, Steven Buscemi, Peter Stormare, John Turturro and Jon Polito. -- About this outdoor screening This screening is taking place at a temporary outdoor screen at the University of Leeds, next to the Roger Stevens Building. You will be able to take your seat 15min before the advertised time, and the film will begin 15min after the advertised time. Seating is unreserved and while we’re not formally using a socially distanced seating plan as these events are outside, we are keeping capacity for screenings at 100 so there is room for a bit of space between groups. All tickets for outdoor screenings are £5 and can only be bought online. They will be available to buy until the start of the film. When you arrive, a Leeds University Union staff member will show you to your designated seat. You're welcome to bring refreshments but alcohol is not permitted. If bad weather makes an outdoor screening impossible, we will contact you on the morning of the performance and we will endeavour to provide an alternative indoor location. If you would rather not attend the screening at the indoor location you can move your seats to another outdoor performance or we will issue a refund. If an outdoor screening goes ahead but we do experience light rain, free ponchos will be made available to everyone at the screening. In the event of heavy rain, the screening will be halted and customers will receive an email allowing them to book a free ticket to a future screening.
