Did the Dude postdate his check?
This will not stand. This will not stand, this aggression against Kuwait.
In the opening scenes of The Big Lebowski, we see the dude walking around Ralph's, a convenience store, buying a pack of milk and paying with a cheque.
Behind the cashier, president George Bush sr. is seen on television, answering questions about the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. The fragment is from 5 August 1990.
Yet the cheque the Dude writes, is dated more than a year later: 11 September 1991.
So either the Dude postdated his cheque, or the fragment was a repeat.
Was that fragment routinely repeated, even over a year later? Or did the Dude postdate his cheque?
I'm asking this because of my other question, about how much time passes in the film.
