Dune Review
I had read Frank Herbert's novel for a long time, and I had already forgotten a lot of the story. Yet it was not a problem to pick things up as the characters and situations unfolded in the film, so I would say that was a good thing for the viewer. The scope of this image is vastly superior to that of the intricate and varied universe of planets and kingdoms. Central to the story is the essential hallucinogenic flavors that are preferred for some, and for the elite, an essential component needed in astronomy. In this novel I believe it was as common as cinnamon, but in the world of Arrakis, it required deep mining operations to be restored to its arid desert.
The whole story is covered in a kind of mysterious ambiance when the main character, Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet), hears about his destiny while he is referred to without hesitation as the ‘The One’ of the legend, a man who will enter into great power. Honestly, the preparation, the calling, the naming of the characters and the cunning of the palace all remind us of 'Star Wars', or the first novel written ten years before George Lucas arrived on the scene. Even the hostile place of Arrakis has a Tatooine feel, with a Shai-Hulud appearance reminiscent of Sarlacc, one of Jabba the Hutt's pets.
What amazed me about this first installment of Dune's proverb was how director Denis Villeneuve was able to summarize the scope of a great novel in a film, even if part of the story is yet to be discussed. The film incorporates the most critical aspects of the novel in a very effective narrative. Although I really enjoyed the 1984 edition by David Lynch, it proves that it covers most of the events in the novel, and I look forward to the successful conclusion of this proverb in due course.
