Jodorowsky's Dune

[kelber at mindspring.com]

Saw Jodorwsky's Dune yesterday. A really entertaining documentary about surreal (El Topo) Mexican director Jodorowsky's ill-fated attempt to create a screen version of the sci-fi classic Dune (which he decided to make without having actually read the book). After seeing this, I'm absolutely convinced that if this movie had been made, it would've been horrifically bad. But as a testament to artistic vision and passion, this documentary is well worth seeing. I'm pretty sure that most of the people on the p-list would absolutely love it.
