I saw the new Dune movie yesterday with my grandson. I saw it as a kind of telling the life story and a mythologyzing of the life of Prince Charles. I'm sure it is all about Prince Charles. Otherwise it is: white privileged family loses its status and goes dragging their sorry ass to the outcast non-white community for help restoring their place. Also, the economy on the particular planet is based on drugs. The movie has one hell of a lot fascist overtones--it is about mega power and mega-power clans. The damn soundtrack--music and noise just about ruined the movie for me. Constant loud music overlayed and booming that is like a constant directors monolog telling the meaning of each scene. I like the acting by Javier Bardem.
