Frank Herbert loved it

Ultimately, there was only one man David Lynch was desperate to impress with his movie, and that was ‘Dune’ author Frank Herbert.

Luckily for the director, Frank absolutely loved it.

He recalled: “I get asked a specific question a lot of times, if the settings, the scenes that I saw in David’s film match my original imagination, the things I projected in my imagination. I must tell you that some of them do, precisely. Some of them don’t, and some of them are better. Which is what you would expect of artists such as David and Tony Masters. I’m delighted with that! Why not take it and improve on it visually? As far as I’m concerned the film is a visual feast.”
