Movies in the current index
What stands out
Long-form transformation
The two-film arc is more useful together than either role viewed in isolation.
Power and identity
Paul’s sense of self changes as other people place larger expectations on him.
2020s science fiction
The films anchor MovieAnchor’s growing 2020s coverage.
Where to start
Start with Dune, then continue directly to Dune: Part Two. The sequel assumes you already understand the Atreides collapse, the Fremen and Paul’s visions.
