We were saddened to learn that character actor extraordinaire David Huddleston has died at the age of 85 of advanced heart and kidney failure. Although he is best known as the title character in the 1998 cult masterpiece The Big Lebowski, Huddleston’s decades-spanning career saw him take small but unforgettable roles in film and television work in projects ranging from Blazing Saddles to It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Take some time out of your day and read this touching memorial from the BBC, then maybe watch The Big Lebowski again. The Dude would want it that way.
