Artists are lunatics who make you fall into the ground. Jodorowsky's devotion to movies will infect everyone, not necessarily every filmmaker should be like Jodorowsky, but every filmmaker should have the spirit of making movies in this way. The documentary itself is also great, the saga of preparing Dune is amazing, Jodorowsky did not make Dune, but this documentary tells us that Dune is everywhere.

You can feel Jodorowsky's passion almost every second, recalling the preparatory process of [Dune], those pioneering split-shot animations that were later imitated by many movies, that idealized artistic creation, In the end, the project was aborted because the pure art refused to compromise and could not find five million funds in Hollywood. When he talks about the relationship between money and movies, every artist must agree. ★★★★

Alejandro Jodorowsky: He said, "I want to produce you anything. What do you want to do?" I say, "Dune!" And he say, "Yes."
Michel Seydoux, Producer - DUNE: Why? Because the book was the most beautiful science fiction book. It was the bible of science fiction for all the big devotees. Because the book had a worldwide publishing success that you could find in every country.
Alejandro Jodorowsky: I didn't read Dune. But, I have a friend who say to me it was fantastic. I don't know why I say Dune. I can say Don Quixote or I can said Hamlet. I don't know any way, anything. I say Dune.

Alejandro Jodorowsky: Frank Herbert created a world in Dune, but he never said exactly what it was. And you have a hundred pages of literature where you go on to discover, with great difficulty what the book is about. It's very - It's like - I compare it to Proust in French literature. It's literary, it's great literature. The first one hundred pages, you understand almost nothing. It's insinuations. And then, to bring literature to image is completely difficult. You need to create another world, the optical world. It's not the literary, auditive world. All the time, even in the, in the, little details, I was trying to find the spiritual meaning of that picture.
