The Art and Soul of Dune by Insight Editions, Tanya Lapointe

timdams's review

2.0

Feels like a wonderful cash grab. Altough the drawings and pictures ooze the same beauty as the movie, the book itself feel unfinished and not really knowing what it wants to be: a making of (too shallow), an art exposition (again too shallow), or a movie summary in pictures (it includes scenes that were cut out in the final release and now feel out of place). Upon further inspection I noticed the book came out in 2020, that's a year before the movie came out, which explains a lot and why, for me, the book doesn't deliver what I thought it promised (an indepth look into how the visuals and art were created). Than again, there's some very nice pictures in it

Would have made it a five star had they directly credited the concept artists on each piece the way the Star Wars books have done. That said, the content is great and the book is beautiful.

Cool if you like the dune movie. Lots  of nifty facts about how the movie was produced and interesting concept pictures.
