Here are a few additional secret messages left out of the chapter on the Coen Brothers' film, The Big Lebowski.
When we first meet The Dude, the scene ends with him left sitting on the toilet, for as a personification of the Holy Dalai Lama, he is "sitting on his throne."
When Lebowski slips into a hallucination after being drugged by Jackie Treehorn, we are shown an animation of two bowling balls and a bowling pin which exhibit a sex act that cannot lead to fertility, an image that furthers the film's theme of fertility and the life cycle.
The lyrics of the music that plays during the movie's closing credits tells of a funeral followed by a wedding, further underscoring the lifecycle theme, as the wedding hints at a future child birth after the funeral.

Hidden Messages left out of The Truman Show PT 1
With such an abundance of symbolism and hidden meanings within the movie The Truman Show, much had to be left out of the chapter on this wonderful film. If you read the chapter on this movie in Buried Movie Treasures, maybe you were keen enough to notice a few omissions. Below is a list, and one that may keep growing, of some of the "secret messages" I left out of the discussion on The Truman Show.
Trumans's license plate starts with the letters 816, which is a Bible reference to Romans 8:16, “The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the “children of God.” As we have established, the show’s creator is a symbol for God, and Truman his “son,” making then Truman, literally, the “child of god,” as his license plate hints to us.
The neighbor Spencer has a dog named Pluto. In Greek Mythology, Pluto is one of three gods that rule over man, and hence, rule over Truman, since he is a symbol for mankind in this film. The other two gods are Zeus, who rules the heavens, and Poseidon, who rules the seas. Both of these gods also make appearences in the movie. Can you guess where?
When Truman reflects his dilemma on the beach, lightning flashes on the sea before him. In literature, lightning, or storms in general, are used to symbolize a confrontation coming, or the "clashing of fronts," as the conflict of the story reaches a head, in our story Truman's longing to search for Sylvia versus his current state of remaining in his unrewarding marriage to Merideth.
