Alejandro Jodorowsky // DUNE
6 Aug
In 1973, film producer Arthur P. Jacobs optioned the film rights to Dune but died before a film could be developed. The option was then taken over two years later by director Alejandro Jodorowsky, who proceeded to approach, among others, Peter Gabriel, the prog rock groups Pink Floyd and Magma for some of the music, artists H. R. Giger and Jean Giraud for set and character design, Dan O’Bannon for special effects, and Salvador Dalí, Orson Welles, Gloria Swanson and others for the cast.
Frank Herbert traveled to Europe in 1976 to find that $2 million of the $9.5 million budget had already been spent in pre-production, and that Jodorowsky’s script would result in a 14-hour movie (“It was the size of a phonebook”, Herbert later recalled). Jodorowsky took creative liberties with the source material, but Herbert said that he and Jodorowsky had an amicable relationship. The project ultimately stalled for financial reasons. The film rights lapsed until 1982, when they were purchased by Italian filmmaker Dino DeLaurentiis, who eventually released the 1984 film Dune, directed by David Lynch.

The Creation
1 Aug
The film depicts the creation of the world through playful images that draw parallels with the creative process associated with art. It focuses on the problems and dangers involved. But all’s well that ends well – because we’re at the movies.

30 JulThe true quest.
That’s the real life?
I’m confused.
Why do we live like zombies?
Why do we live like soldiers?
Humanity raises awareness.
But was diverted from its true quest.
Revolt against the oppressive governments, the banksters and the mafia is a red herring.
There will be no end of the world.
It will be quite the opposite.
This will be the beginning of a new era. The opposite of the New World Order.
But for now, we run like headless chickens.
They will do anything to scare you, to keep you in the negative.
War.
Pandemic. Influenza A (H1N1) was a scam that will be repeated.
Big f**king Crash. More huge than 1929.
Do not let yourself be driven by the negative energy.
Harmonize yourself with the positive of the universe.
We must all become ONE.
That is the ultimate quest.

Going thru all the possible fields, his ideas skid, the music of his iPod is too loud, an apocalyptic blues buzz scratches his brain ! Follow him during his journey thru the city of Montreal !
