Jodorowsky's Dune

documentary

The remarkable story of the attempt in the 1970's by the Chilean madman, creator of El Topo and Sante Sangre, to film Frank Herbert's classic sci-fi novel. His ideas were grandiose, original and would have been a hoot of a film...but...it wasn't meant to be.

The suits were terrified of this creative force and shot him down cold. That may have been for the best. It mighta sucked. Still, this was a helluva story...
