Author Jacob Bacharach returns to the pod for a deep dive into the various adaptations of Frank Herbert’s Dune, directly comparing David Lynch’s 1984 epic with the 2021 Denis Villeneuve version of the first half of the book, with digressions on the 2000 TV miniseries Frank Herbert’s Dune and the 2013 documentary Jodorowsky’s Dune.
We also discuss in detail two of Denis Villeneuve’s recent futuristic works that are related through casting and themes to his Dune: his 2015 thriller Sicario (which depicts an American covert war against Mexican drug cartels in an otherworldly manner) and 2017’s Blade Runner 2049.
