Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
In the distant future, the most precious resource in the universe is a spice that is only found on the desert planet of Arrakis. When the Duke of Atreides is given control of the planet instead of the Harkonnen, he embarks with his wife and son, Paul, whose native people think he is the Messiah.
This ambitious first adaptation of Frank Herbert’s dynastic sci-fi epic was panned in its day, but time has been very kind to the film’s grand production design, practical effects, and surreal soundscapes. Just as the spice must flow, so must the cult following for David Lynch’s Dune grow!
