I got the Big Lebowksi on lovefilm yesterday and i had to bring it up.



Poll: I would have voted for Jack Torrance.

D'oh! The only thing I could think of was that one where he became King of England.

EDIT: Argh! You've now just reminded me of O Brother, Where Art Thou? OK, I was a bit tipsy when I made my original slapdash comment - luckily, drunkenness is an automatic excuse for everything.
