What is your next movie? The thing is
I wanted to take a break right now
but I'm working slowly on the
adaptation of one of my favorite
sci-fi book, called Dune. Yes.
Frank Herbert's Dune it's a book that I read
when I was a teenager. It's a fantastic...
it's a very powerful story that
is a mirror of our times you know,
the more humanity evolved the more
it's accurate to do that
adaptation of this book that's what I
will say it's a fantastic book.
How far along are you in the conceptual process?
Very early stage of screenwriting. Okay.
And it's that's what I want
because I made five movies in six years
which is a region that is too high
I mean I need to think about what just
happened you know I need to
reflect a bit on the last movies I have
made because the way I did them is that
I was always in a present time focusing
on what I was doing not thinking about
what I've just done and
I don't want to repeat myself
I need to in order to try
to evolve as a filmmaker I need to
digest a little bit. So it sounds like
you will lean a lot more heavily on the
on the book Dune versus the the version
that David Lynch did previously?
The thing is that yeah David Lynch
did an adaptation in the 80s that has a
very strong qualities. I mean David Lynch
is a one of the best movie maker alive
I have massive respect for him but when
I saw his adaptation I was impressed but
it was not the movie what I had dreamed
of and so I'm trying to make the
adaptation of my dream. How do you think
it will depart most dramatically from
that version? It will not be in any link
with the David Lynch movie.
I mean I'm starting I'm going back to
the book and find out, going back to
the images that came out when I read it.
