Interview: Frank Pavich (Jodorowsky’s Dune)

Date:

You might remember Frank Pavich from his history of the New York hardcore music scene in N.Y.H.C., which found its release over a decade ago, but his follow up dives into the abyss of movie lore with Jodorowsky’s Dune, finally showcasing the immensity and influence of a film that never came to be. Within, Pavich speaks with loving exuberance about how his documentary on the legendary failure came to fruition, the incredible coincidence that his film would reunite Alejandro Jodorowsky with his producer Michel Seydoux and the intrinsic nature of legend and possibility that Jodo’s vision exudes. After showing in the Directors Fortnight at the Cannes Film Fesitval, This interview took place at the Toronto International Film Festival. Sony Pictures Classics releases the film on March 21.
