The Jesus Rolls is a 2019 crime comedy film directed by John Turturro. The film is a spin-off of the 1998 cult classic The Big Lebowski, and it centers around the character of Jesus Quintana, played by Turturro.
The film follows Jesus, a flamboyant, bowling-obsessed ex-con who forms an unlikely bond with two fellow misfits: French crook Marie and soft-spoken mechanic Petey. The trio embark on a series of wild and unpredictable adventures, including stealing cars, robbing stores, and committing various other petty crimes.
As they navigate their way through the criminal underworld, the three outsiders find themselves in increasingly dangerous situations, including a violent encounter with a gun-toting hairdresser named Paul Domino, played by Bobby Cannavale.
Despite the chaos and danger that surrounds them, the three misfits continue to grow closer, forming a tight-knit family unit that is both dysfunctional and endearing.
Throughout the film, Turturro weaves in elements of humor, romance, and tragedy, creating a poignant and entertaining exploration of the human experience. The Jesus Rolls is a unique and memorable addition to the cinematic landscape, and a must-see for fans of The Big Lebowski and offbeat crime comedies.
