What does the Dude do for money.
It's clean the Dude don't work. How does the dude pay for bills. Maybe he's got a trust fund of money in the bank because I'm sure bowling, gas and where he's living ain't free.
shareHmmm..early draft of the film suggested the Dude was the heir to the inventor of Rubik's cube; they decided early on to just keep it deliberately obscure, and not reveal how the Dude manages to pay his bills.
In real life the ACTUAL Dude.. Jeff 'the Dude' Dowd, a friend of the Coen brothers on whom the character is based -- is an independent film producer.
Sometimes fires don't go out when you're done playin' with them.
I'm really glad that was cut.
Because if they made it clear they The Dude was financially secure or actually wealthy, he'd actually be a bit less sympathetic. As it is, there's always a little fear for him, that he's somehow managing to scrape some sort of life for himself together, and that by getting involved in the affairs of the great and terrible might upset the balance of his marginal life and tip him into misery or poverty or friendlessness. Well, that's how I see him.
I like to think that he sells weed and probably has a connection from Humboldt.
