The Big Lebowski is a feminist masterpiece where every man is a buffoon and every woman is willing to go as far as cutting off their own toe to get what they want.

A long time ago, there used to be a really, really good film analysis breakdown of this very idea on YouTube. I can't remember the guy, but he locked up all his film analysis behind paywalls years ago. I remember the Big Lebowski one being so well put together, and in the end, it's really hard to argue that the film has anything other than a deeply feminist viewpoint.
