Commentaar
Er has been eagerly awaiting the film adaptation of the legendary sci-fi classic Dune by Denis Villeneuve (Blade Runner 2049, Arrival). Frank Herbert's book was considered by many to be unfilmable, especially after none other than David Lynch made a mess of it in 1984. Voor Villeneuve it was an ultimate boyhood dream to be allowed to film Dune. His version covers the first half of Herbert's original book.
