Show Notes
This week, we're setting off for the desert planet of Arrakis as we dive into the ambitious attempts over the years to adapt Frank Herbert's space opera epic Dune to the screen. We'll start by exploring the documentary Jodorowsky's Dune (2013), directed by Frank Pavich, which unearths the incredible story behind the most famous film that was never made. Then, we'll take a deep dive into David Lynch's Dune (1984), discussing Lynch's unique filmography, the challenges he faced during production, fan edits that have emerged over the years, and how the film compares to Herbert's original novel.
Join us for a journey through the sands of Dune and the cinematic dreams and disputes that surround this iconic tale.
