Episode 40: Dune: Part Two

Is DUNE: PART TWO this generation’s THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK? None other than Christopher Nolan suggested as much. The Brothers examine the success of Denis Villeneuve’s epic sequel in this roundtable discussion. In particular, they focus on the film’s thematic approach, its Shakespearean ending, the performances of the all-star cast, the design and worldbuilding, its qualities as an adaptation, and its potential legacy within science-fiction cinema.
