That Movie Part Was Played By That Musician?!
Which musician played nihilist #2, AKA Kieffer, in the movie The Big Lebowski? Here’s a hint. He’s one funky mofo with a tiny nickname. The answer is … Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. It was a fantastic bit part, although he has very little dialogue in the film. Besides threatening Jeffrey Lebowski a couple of times, he can be seen and heard ordering lingonberry pancakes with his fellow nihilists at a diner, and appears on the record cover for the fictional band Autobahn. Speaking of musicians in the film, who’s the lady missing a pinky toe having pancakes with the nihilists? That’s singer-songwriter Aimee Mann!
