"Dune: Unraveling the Saga of Unmade Movie Adaptations"
TL;DR Summary
"Jodorowsky's Dune" is a documentary chronicling Alejandro Jodorowsky's ambitious but unrealized adaptation of the "Dune" saga, featuring a star-studded cast and a 14-hour screenplay. The film would have included Mick Jagger, Gloria Swanson, and Salvador Dalí, with storyboards created by Jodorowsky and artist Jean (Moebius) Giraud. Despite running out of money, the documentary argues that the unrealized project had a significant impact on science fiction, offering a fascinating glimpse into the challenges of filmmaking.
