I don't know, to me it seemed really obvious, the small town America aspect reminded me of Fargo, as I mentioned in a previous thread I got a Lebowski vibe from a lot of different things, the shot of the bum coming into town reminded me a lot of the tumbleweed was one that comes to mind, then also the fact that it's a period piece that's set within the same decade the film was made and in both cases have an underlying political theme(Lebowski with the Gulf war and jewish involvement in the neoconservative movement and the left/right divide being reflected in the Dude/Walter, Eddington being more obvious) and Joaquin's performance also reminded me a little bit of Jeff Bridge's, maybe it was the quirkiness or maybe just the beard. I also saw a bit of No Country in there, obviously with the neo-western aspect of it. There's also that clip I saw recently:

He talks about the Coens and how they don't like their characters, and obviously with Eddington there's a lot of that in there, I mean just look at what happens to Joe in the end.
