INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
Dune: Part 2 is a sensation, setting the box office on fire and receiving near universal acclaim. We take a look back at the cinematic history of Dune. We start with Frank Pavich's "Jodorowsky's Dune" from 2013, looking back at what might have been the sci-fi turning point of the '70s that Star Wars turned out to be. Then we take a look at David Lynch's "Dune" from 1984 and try to find something to love about it.
The back half is Denis Villeneuve's two parter from 2021 and 2024. We talk about the cast, the throughlines from previous versions, our relationships with Villeneuve, and much more. We also take a brief detour to talk highlights from Dave Bautista's wrestling career.
