Basically a Big Lebowski retelling


When the finale revealed that nothing really happened, and Chantal was just hiding, it dawned on me that this was just basically The Big Lebowski. Where it makes you believe there's this huge conspiracy with clues and shady characters, but in the end it's all nothing, and everything was basically a red herring.

There girl is ok in the end, she was just hiding out. There's a weird cult, kind of like the nihilists from Lebowski. There's a secretive private investigator trying to find the girl. Someone innocent dies in the end, like Donny from Lebowski, I use innocent because that's how the director described Keith in the end during commentary.

Less direct connections are: An extremely rich character, Gail and Big Lebowski. Dory's blue coat kind of resembles the Dude's robe. There's cool music throughout...?

We just needed some more elaborate dream sequences.

Anybody have anymore connections?
