Stephen's "Dune" Spoilers With Rebecca Ferguson

[@ninnusridhar]

The lady Jessica is one of the best characters I've ever read. She's strong but broken. She makes mistakes but always tries to do what she feels is right. She loves her son but will put him in danger if she feels he needs it. Reading dune I strongly felt for her and can't wait to see RF in that role

[@JoaoFederle]

she carries the story even though it is not about her

[@j0j01192]

I just love the way the portrayed her character in the movie. Fantastic!

[@dejavu011]

yeah, WHY is that? ..I'm in continental Europe, so I don't mind, but I'm just wondering. It will be released theatrically in the UK, US, and Canada last - after all international public premieres. Legendary Entertainment (which produced it) is an American production company. Is it already showing in Europe because it opened in Venice (where all the European business end of things was conducted)? ..but release dates are decided way before that. Sorry for my chaotic thoughts around this, I can't find the answer online.

[@MartijnVos]

I'm going next Wednesday with my wife. She hasn't read the book and isn't a SciFi fan, so I'm curious what she will think. That it's going to be released last in the US is bizarre. I guess they like piracy? I thought two decades ago they finally switched to releasing movies everywhere around the world at the same time in order to reduce the demand for illegal downloads, and now they're switching it around so the most important market gets it last? I don't get it. Doesn't matter to me. We get it early, and even if we didn't, I want to see this on a big screen.

[@creepy99]

At what point in the story does the movie end? Just curious. I'm very familiar with the story so you aren't going to spoil anything for me. If I were to guess, it's probably around the time when Paul and Lady Jessica are being transported to the desert to be killed and end up finding the Fremen?

[@scapegoatiscariot2767]

the dear lady may not know this since she has not finished the book but the lady Jessica delivers a line close to the end that is to me, utterly breathtaking and heartwarming. I love this dark and sad story. It's a fantasy that reflects reality quite accurately. Frank wanted to explore the question, "What do we do with our messiahs, with our heroes?" and "I believe every hero should come with a warning stamp on his forehead, "warning: maybe dangerous to your health". This story explores the deep entanglement of religion and politics, political intrigue among lesser powers, the powers of religion upon very simple people and the endless work of an honored ecologist who inspired these simple people to bring a balance of water to the desert without killing the substance of the spice, the Giant worm, Shyhalude. The first book was written to be one story ended where it's at, not knowing how it would be received. It is a masterpiece in itself.

It's shocking how she was so good in the movie despite not reading the book. And it actually shows because her character is suposed to be cool calm and collected in every situation and she was the opposite of that, which was actually great because the movie would really feel too bland without her.

Sometimes you're better off not knowing the book .... that way you're not constantly checking yourself against the book but free to be the character you are playing.

[@jamezkpal2361]

Having just seen the film I think she completely captures Jessica. Jessica is a very emotional character, strong and weak at the same time. She and Paul are very much alike. They have a tendency toward kindness but can be ruthless when challenged. An excellent portrayal of a conflicted young woman. A child, a mother, and a warrior.

Mate, if ploughing through the book seems a little daunting, seriously the audiobook is your friend. Listen while you're working out or driving or commuting or whatever.

If you enjoy audiobooks, may I suggest borders audio and recorded books version of dune, read by George goodell and Davina Porter as princess ireland. It is enchanting, to say the least.

I've never seen Rebecca Ferguson before and she seemed delightful, but struggling to be present with Stephen's fanning over Dune (I understand it, but he should have let her talk more, and the short segments are a problem; I also suspect she has already spent a long time on set with a LOT of men having most of the focus).
