Lawrence of Arrakis: Denis Villeneuve's Dune
This week Ibrahim & I take a look at a film currently playing in theaters and HBO MAX, Denis Villeneuve's Dune. There's a hell of a lot going on here; some good, some not so good. Villeneuve's a true visionary who pushes expectations. But is that always enough? Neither Ibrahim nor I are exactly sure. There are problems with Frank Herbert's 1965 novel (as well as David Lynch's 1984 troubled adaptation), but there are also aspects that are so grand and beautifully imagined that it's almost forgivable. There's a lot to talk about and Ibrahim & I do just that. Take a listen to see if you agree, disagree, or are - simply - confused by the whole thing. It's a good talk, either way. Take a listen and let us know what you think.
