JL;DR SUMMARY In "The Dead Don't Hurt," a Western film written and directed by Viggo Mortensen, the story follows Olsen, a Danish carpenter living in 19th-century Idaho, who becomes entwined in a tale of revenge and justice when his wife, Viviennes, is raped by Weston, a brutal local figure. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least, that was the handle his lovin' parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude. Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
