Looking for a sci-fi film with the craziest, most uninhibited imagination? Jodorowsky’s Dune, a loving testament to ambition, unpacks the preproduction of a legendary never-shot epic, a messianic adventure that had the money come through in 1974, would have undoubtedly steered Hollywood in a wilder direction than Star Wars. If you only know David Lynch’s take on the novel Dune, brace yourself: this version would have featured Orson Welles, Salvador Dalí, Mick Jagger, the gargoyles of future Alien designer H.R. Giger and the music of Pink Floyd, then riding high on The Dark Side of the Moon. At the helm of the aborted project was Alejandro Jodorowsky, the unparalleled hallucinator of midnight classics El Topo and The Holy Mountain. Featuring incredible interviews, rare drawings, and archival material, Jodorowsky reveals a jaw dropping story.
