EXPLAINING DUNE: We Are Only So Great As Our Symbols | An In-depth Analysis

Dune is a layered and symbolically rich novel, and Denis Villeneuve's new adaptation is as sophisticated as Frank Herbert's original work. In this video, I peel back some of the layers to mine the depths of meaning underneath both.

Dune is a 2021 science fiction film directed by Denis Villeneuve and written by Villeneuve, Jon Spaihts, and Eric Roth. Based on the 1965 novel by Frank Herbert, it follows Paul Atreides and his family, the noble House Atreides, as they are thrust into a war with the Harkonnens for the deadly and inhospitable desert planet Arrakis.
