Did You Know?
Trivia | Sir Patrick Stewart's casting as Gurney Halleck was actually a mistake. Director David Lynch thought he'd hired a different looking actor, as he had only seen Stewart wearing a costume and heavy makeup that made him look older in a play. This is the look the director was expecting, and when he showed up with his actual face, Lynch was disappointed at first. See more » |
Goofs | At 1 hour 28 minutes and 40 seconds, Paul is seen standing next to Chani his eyes are blue, in the next scene Paul's eyes are normal. At this point In the movie Paul has only been on the planet Dune for a few days, it takes years of extended exposure to the spice for ones eyes to become blue, like the Fremen. Which happens to Paul later in the movie. See more » |

Quotes |
Paul:
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will let it pass over me and through me. And when it has passed I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where it has gone, there will be nothing. Only I will remain. See more » |
