Bring me the head of Auguste Escoffier.

For some reason, was picturing him doing Leto in the manner he does the mayor in Portlandia.

I hope dune fan Susan Sarandon gets in somehow.

A slight tangent over a minor character, but maybe slip her in as Reverend Mother Ramallo, who is the old reverend mother in Sietch Tabr before Jessica. In the Lynch film, I found out recently, she was played by Italian actress, Silvana Mangano, who I'm familiar with only from this clip of a song I really like:

(Warning: scandalous singing in a nightclub with bare shoulders and capri pants and *clutches pearls* ETHNIC men)

I also found this picture of her, which has nothing to do with Dune, but probably would have fit in Jodorowksy's version and I chuckled a bit picturing Susan Sarandon wearing it.

I posted this a little while ago but Sarandon was in the children of dune mini series and gave this interview where it looks like she's try to explain why she likes the books after smoking a bowl and being put in front of a camera:

EDIT - This reminded me of the even better behind the scenes interview of notable ultraspice addict garey busey:

Maybe Sarandon at age 25-29, but SS's features are pretty severe in her 30s. Jessica is specifically described as having a round face.

I mean you don't take descriptions of characters from books as the absolute, final goddamn gospel truth from which there shall be no deviation from when making a movie. Unless Stellan Skarsgaard is going to put on like 500 lbs. or wear a fatsuit and poo poo he's not going to match the description of the Baron either.

Maybe YOU don't :colbert:



Also, Sarandon's personality, gait, and cadence are all a complete mismatch for Jessica, so...

If Kenneth McMillan could wear a silicone fatsuit 35 years ago I'm sure they can come up with something for Skarsgaard.

I've been reading wikipedia, and it looks like the adab (the demanding memory that comes upon you itself) is a real thing called involuntary memory retrieval. Your body is just like "hey, I've been looking at our surroundings, and you're gonna need this memory".

Adab, apparently, is also a real islamic idea, but refers rather to proper action

Exploration is ill-advised.
Memory and sensation are very strongly linked in general, that shouldn't be a surprise.
