Review Detail

This is a superb remake (including re-arranging the storytelling) of the "Dune" miniseries starring Alec Newman as Paul Atreides / Muad'dib. As a personal note, I think Saskia Reeves is the best actress to impersonate Lady Jessica, with Rebecca Ferguson a close second. This particular fanedit, "The Spence Edit Revised," cuts down the miniseries to under 3 hours while keeping major plot points from Frank Herbert's first two books, "Dune" and "Children of Dune." Sadly, the TV miniseries stopped producing the entire story, or at least filming the first four novels. Indeed, many famous people tried (and failed) their hand at "Dune" - including Salvador Dali! The Spence Edit takes the story as much as it was portrayed. We just have to wait and see if the current cinematic efforts expand beyond the TV series. The Spence Edit provides an excellent introduction to the Dune universe. 10/10 I would rewatch.
