Not only a Big Lebowski, but Coen brothers in general. They have their own universe, especially films like No Country for Old Men, Barton Fink, and Raising Arizona.
After watching the Coen's film A Serious Man I felt that all the serious reviews I read had missed the many of the points that the film was trying to make. After several weeks of email exchanges, sleeping on it and much googling I put together my own interpretation, which ended up published in the online Dudespaper. Its a bit of a half finished spreadsheet of an essay, interlarded with slabs of quote.
After that it was quite easy to apply the tree of life format to The Big Lebowski.
