Jodorowsky’s Dune (Frank Pavich, 2013)

Jodorowsky’s Dune is the story of film director Alejandro Jodorowsky and his ambitious film, Dune, a film that never reached fruition. This documentary follows Jodorowsky and his cast of “spiritual warriors” through reflections on the Western canon of science fiction film from Alien (1979) to Contact (1997) to Prometheus (2012).

Introduced by Molly Greene, American Studies, Yale University.
