An intriguing film with the best warriors of a Dune

Jodorowsky’s Dune is an American documentary film directed by Frank Pavich. The film explores Chilean-French director Alejandro Jodorowsky’s attempt to adapt and film Frank Herbert’s science fiction novel Dune in the mid-1970s. The director makes the story alive and full of passion that Jodorowsky uses to describe everything. It is a well structured master piece in his book but makes the case for this overblown epic as a legendary lost master piece in a film in which he didn’t participate.  It would be around 12 hours long but the real time is 90 minutes and the documentary shows how some of the drawings were used for inspiration in Star Wars and other movies later on. Donald Rosenfeld, Stephen Scarlata, Michel Seydoux, and Travis Stevens also were part in an in-depth look at the doomed production and features a number of never-before-seen images and interviews where world-class surrealists, international rock stars, top-billed actors and artists were going to be part in Jodorowsky’s film but at the end all the melodrama and manipulation there was, instead, vision and ambition. From an artistic point of view, that generation was more honest and people from big film companies didn’t want to share with this visionary of the visual art in movement. This documentary will we open in Los Angeles on March 21st, 2014.

David Letterman is more successful than ever

David Letterman’s Late Show contract extended through 2015. Letterman’s 66 years old has been hosting the Late Show with David Letterman on CBS since 1993. Over the years, the man has had trouble competing with Jay Leno, often losing to NBC’s late night host. Certainly good news for Letterman’s fans whose every evening program has been successful in recent years.

While Prince William’s shot at goal on the football pitch was wildly inaccurate and Prince Harry missed all four basketball hoops he attempted, Kate picked up a table tennis bat and showed the menfolk exactly how it was done. She played table tennis during a visit to Bacon’s college to launch the Coach core sports programme, which is a partnership between the Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Greenhouse charity.
