Last night, I watched this documentary about a failed attempt to make a feature of Frank Herbert's book, Dune. In 1974, Alejandro Jodorowsky just set out to make a film "to change the young minds of all the world." He failed in getting his movie made, but he certainly influenced a generation of Science Fiction films. You should check it out!
Here's some of the talent he brought in to help...
That's a great film, too bad the movie will never be made. Calvin at the cave of cool and I are going to steal that giant book.
ReplyDeleteHow do I get in on that book heist? ;)
ReplyDeleteWe need a good grease man and an explosives expert.
ReplyDeleteIt was a very cool documentary and the man certainly has vision -- too bad he's also a complete whackjob! I have no doubt this film would have been awesome, but only in the literal definition of that word...
ReplyDeleteI like how our little team is shaping up nicely. Now we need a girl that speaks several languages. She has to be young and cute, just his type.
ReplyDeleteGreat documentary.
I have said it before and I will say it again, Salvadore Dali as The Emperor - 'nuff said.
