Can you believe it's the 40th Anniversary of David Lynch’s infamous, psychedelic sci-fi tale of space, spice and sandworms?
The long-awaited film version of Frank Herbert’s classic science fiction epic exploded onto movie screens in 1984 with dazzling special effects, unforgettable images, and powerful performances. It initially left audiences scratching their heads, most dismissing the film upon its release. However, four decades and a big-budget remake later, Lynch’s film is finally poised to find its rightful place alongside the director’s other masterpieces such as Blue Velvet and Mullholland Drive.
The unforgettable saga of intergalactic warrior Paul Atreides (Kyle MacLachlan) and his messianic rise to leadership features an all-star cast, including Jose Ferrer, Max Von Sydow, Oscar-winner Linda Hunt and rock legend, Sting (in his space undies!).
This is one cosmic anniversary worth celebrating!
