Dune (1984)

Action | Adventure | Sci-Fi

David Lynch's baroque rendering of Frank Herbert's detailed, complex, and deliberately paced epic science-fiction novel is a muddled but visually stunning affair. It's the year 10,191, and the desert planet Dune has been taken over by the Harkonnens, oppressive conquerors who desire the precious spice that lies beneath Dune's arid sands. The story concerns the attempts of a young warrior messiah, Paul Atreides (Kyle MacLachlan), to lead the native inhabitants in an uprising against the evil empire–and battle the giant man-eating worms that guard the coveted mind expanding -and life prolonging- spice.

Starring: Kyle MacLachlan, Virginia Madsen, Francesca Annis, José Ferrerr, Sting, Jürgen Prochnow
Director: David Lynch

NOTES……..: Used overlay method to correct left and right side pixel bars. DiRTY's encode was overcropped by 4px! I don't know why I didn't check that when I did the 1080p. About the subtitles. The english/french subs were OCR'd from the USA Blu-ray. The other languages (24fps) were taken from hdb or other sources, converted to 23.976fps, fixed the timecodes and common errors then saved as UTF-8. They seem to fit the movie pretty well.
