How many times can you watch The Big Lebowski before you get tired of it? According to our own studies such a number does not exist. You can never see it enough. But while we never need an excuse to hang out with the Dude again, next month cinema fans will get to do more than just watch the classic Coen Brothers film for the umpteenth time. Focus Features will let them experience it firsthand. It’s one of three films that will screen as part of the studio’s new one-day immersive film festival FocusFest.
Focus Features
Focus Features has announced what it’s calling an “unforgettable celebration of bold, timeless filmmaking and the fans who make it all matter.” The first-ever FocusFest will take place at the Universal Studios lot on October 18. TikTok star Juju Green (aka @straw_hat_goofy) will serve as host of the festival. It will include three big Focus Features films. In addition to The Big Lebowski, attendees will also get to see Promising Young Woman and a special advance screening of Yorgos Lanthimos’ upcoming Bugonia starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons. It arrives in theaters on October 31 but has already earned rave reviews after screening at major film festivals earlier this year.
Watching three big time movies on the Universal Studios is a pretty way to spend an afternoon. But FocusFest is more than just about seeing films. It’s also going to provide movie lovers an immersive experience. It will include “photo moments, themed food and beverage offerings, and a curation of exclusive merchandise drops inspired by the Focus library.”
Focus Features
Tickets ($78.65 after fees) are now on sale. You can get yours here. The Big Lebowski will screen first at 1:30 p.m. Promising Young Woman will follow at 4:30. Bugonia will then have its special screening at 7:30.
If the first FocusFest is a hit we expect it to become a yearly event. And hopefully every FocusFest will start with The Big Lebowski.
