The cast of The Big Lebowski (the American equivalent of Withnail & I or something) got together to celebrate (promote) the reissue of the film on Blu-Ray, which sounds dull as shit, but turned out to be quite funny.
See, most cast members mew fluff about What An Honour it was to star in the film and all that junk… but these guys decided to become their characters again, which is just great.
Jeff Bridges became The Dude again (much like he became in Tron 2) lead the crowd in some hippyish hymnal chant, prompting Steve Buscemi to quote a famous line from the movie. Basically, he said “You shut the fuck up.” Brilliant. But what’s this about Big Lebowski 2?

Oh no! Here comes another Hollywood hack remaking a classic that doesn’t need to be made. Whatever happened to the original stories that used to litter our cinemas? John Wayne must be rolling in his grave blah blah blah…etc etc.

Wow, what a crazy time everyone had at London Fancy Dress Week.
The Geldof sisters were there with Ray Winstone’s oiky little girl. She was with Keith Allen’s offspring, who was probably staring from the corner of his eye at Daisy Lowe’s bosoms, which have been having quite an airing lately, if i-D magazine has anything to do with it.
Of course, Alexa Chung – the only non-celebrity child – was the glue keeping everyone together, with her pipe-cleaner legs and voice like a loudspeaker. What a trendy bunch.
