Jodorowsky's Dune Page #5

---

who can do it that and he will do it!

I suffer because was my dream.

Another person will do that...

maybe better than me.

And then when the picture,

they will show the picture here...

I say I will not go to see that

because I will die.

And my sons say, "No, we are warriors.

You need to come and to see that."

And then they take me,

like an ill person I came to the theater.

Even I think I will cry.

And I start to see the picture...

and step by step, step by step,

step by step...

I became happy

because the picture was awful!

Is a failure!

Well, it's a human reaction, no?

Is not beautiful,

but I have that reaction.

I say, "Is not possible. Is not David Lynch

because he is a big artist."

Is the producer who did that.

I've never seen the movie and I never will.

From this supposed failure,

come a lot of creation.

In the life, thing come, you say "yes."

Thing go away, you say "yes."

We don't do Dune? Yes!

That is, yes, we don't do it!

And then so what?

And then so what?

Dune is in the world like a dream,

but dreams change the world also.

I think it was a guide.

A guide for some.

In any case, I am convinced

that our storyboard...

made the rounds

in the halls of Hollywood.

I can't imagine that isn't the case.

It pleases me to imagine that.

You always have to see the positive.

Giger. He make the monster of Alien.

Why he make the monster of Alien?

Because Dan O'Bannon.

O'Bannon create Alien.

They take Moebius,

they take Giger, Foss.

And Hollywood start to use my group.

Was very fantastic.

And then Moebius say to me,

"What you will do? You will die?"

No, I will not die.

For me to fail is only to change the way.

If we don't do that...

the Dune we was doing is...

The roots are the Dune of Herbert.

But this Dune is us.

Is the optical. Ls a creation.

And then, I will use everything

I put in Dune to make comics.

I say to Moebius,

"Why we don't do a comic?"

And I start to dictate The Inca/.

A lot of images that are in here

are in here.

And then I find an Argentine,

a Spanish, Juan Gimenez.

And there I make all the spaceship

I design for Dune are in The Metabarons.

Even the Duke Leto.

I made him castrated by a bull...

and we find the sorcerer

who will take a drop of his blood...

in order to make the child.

I did it here, is here, like

I was shooting! I did it.

I start with Dune, but I go farther, no?

Farther.

I continue and I did it, my work.

I think Dune will be fantastic

if somebody take this script...

even if I am not alive...

and do a picture in animation.

Now is possible.

I can die, they can do my picture.

I have 84 years, but I am still creating.

I am not:

All my life I create,

and is more and more and more.

The mind is like a universe.

It's constantly expanding.

Like the universe,

exactly like the universe, open the mind.

The opening of the mind is every day,

is open.

That was this picture. Open the mind

of all the persons who worked there.

From the producer to the artists.

From the workers...

for every one was an opening

of the mind, this work.

Was ambitious, but not too.

Was ambitious.

Myself, I have the ambition

to live 300 years.

I will not live 300 years.

Maybe I will live one year more.

But I have the ambition.

Why you will not have ambition?

Why?

Have the greatest ambition possible.

You want to be immortal?

Fight to be immortal.

Do it.

You want to make

the most fantastic art of movie? Try.

If you fail, is not important.

We need to try.
