      Doubtful

      This film is an important glimpse into Jodor's creative process and philosophy. However, I still have doubts about the concept conveyed by this film - Jodor's creation and expression seem to have great ambition and vision, but they lack solidity and depth, and their meaning is unclear.

      "Movies have a heart, a thought, and a power." It sounds reasonable, but it seems to stop at a motivating "reasonable".

      Is Hollywood really all harmless? Isn't there any merit in its...

      "I bent down three or four hundred meters from the pyramid, grabbed a handful of sand, let go silently, let it fall a little further away, and whispered: I am changing the Sahara Desert. This is trivial, but That ingenious remark is very precise, and I think it took me a lifetime of experience to say it."...

      Jodorowsky's Dune

      If there is no if, the dune is not made, just as a dream may not be presented in reality

      Dunes are destined to be just a few people's carnival

      art is so

      Especially when art needs money to participate in the completion

      money

      costume, props, set

      Dali's pay per minute

      French restaurant chef

      Film needs a harmony between business and art

      unless you just film it for yourself

      Pay for everything...

      undone

      The earliest science fiction film recognized in the world is Merieux's "Journey to the Moon" in 1902, until Fritz Lang's "Metropolis" in 1927, which brought a complete end to the science fiction film of the silent film era. The film was also by far the most expensive to produce at the time. The Great Depression in the late 1920s brought a heavy blow to large-scale sci-fi films. Investor studios would no longer give so much production funding to sci-fi films, some sci-fi and action fusion...

      From the excited dancing at the beginning to the closing because he couldn't get sponsorship, Zozo's expression was distressing. In fact, it was not right for an artist to want to blend in a commercial blockbuster, and David Lynch was also J. Q's ending. What's more, I've found so many people who don't look for the edge, although they are all super suitable. Okay, now I'm going to read the original. (I don't even have a problem with Zozo's Mexican accent...

      Also known as "Death of a Wonderful Movie"... The art design of "Dune" is so beautiful! The old man was angry because a great idea is always just an idea without funds. Sorry, of course, but no...

      Like a dynamic set, and Dali and HR Giger were still alive in that era. God's work is conferred a god because of its unfinished flaws. Fantasy is fascinating because it has no period. The emperor's new clothes are actually optical camouflage clothes that are beyond the understanding of the times. In the end Jodorowsky's "Dune" didn't hold up like Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody," and no one had the foresight to take that risk. This is the tears shed by the times and technology, and the extraordinary...

      Old but naive, old but not losing his character, seeing the old man talking about his excitement and coming out with a handful of change to spray Hollywood violently, I can't help but feel a little sad. Money, of course, can make people realize their dreams, but dreams must never bow to...

    Movie plot

    After "Holy Mountain", Jodorowsky vowed to adapt the science fiction novel "Dune", with an ambitious goal to change the world and change thinking. He organized the strongest team in history, and actually participated in Orson Welles, Mickey, and even Dali! Moebius's storyboards of the year were connected into a long shot, which was more than enough to satisfy the idiots, and it was even more certain that what followed, from "Alien" to...

    Movie quotes

    • Alejandro Jodorowsky: Frank Herbert created a world in Dune, but he never said exactly what it was. And you have a hundred pages of literature where you go on to discover, with great difficulty what the book is about. It's very - It's like - I compare it to Proust in French literature. It's literary, it's great literature. The first one hundred pages, you understand almost nothing. It's insinuations. And then, to bring literature to image is completely difficult. You need to create another world, the optical world. It's not the literary, auditive world. All the time, even in the, in the, little details, I was trying to find the spiritual meaning of that picture.

    • Alejandro Jodorowsky: I wanted a musical group for every planet. Pink Floyd. They will make the music for Leto. Pink Floyd have a record, Dark Side of the Moon. For me, that is the human being, like the moon. One side is brilliant, light. And the other side, who is black, the unconscious, what is mysterious, what is deep.

    • Alejandro Jodorowsky: For me, science fiction was like a huge theater, like a huge work of art. Every spaceship was a being, like an insect, like a fabulous bird. That was the spaceship I wanted.
