#023: Dune Special w/ Michael Wyllie

The Reel Life Podcast

In this episode, Dom and Michael reconvene to discuss part two of Denis Villeneuve's adaptation of Frank Herbert's Dune.

This is Michael's THING, like we only just scratch the surface here, so Michael leads the episode in talking about how well the film does in translating the content of the book to the big screen. Dom, having not read the book, sits back, but also comes back to his now altered ranking of Villenueve's work.

There's plenty of (what is hopefully not too deep and dense) discussion of the themes and the events of the film, also taking a cinematic look at the film and relating it to part one. The basic premise is- it's really quite good.

Full spoiler warning in effect as usual, so if you haven't seen Dune Part 2 then do go and find a huge screen to watch it. Any feedback appreciated as normal, and thank you for downlaoding the podcast!
