When it comes to cinema, Steven Spielberg’s word is law: even more so if the genre involved is science fiction. What, therefore, was the opinion of the director of Jurassic Park on the film of the moment, that Dune – Part 2 which would seem to have definitively consecrated Denis Villeneuve among the big names in today’s Hollywood?
Needless to say, Spielberg appeared enthusiastic about his colleague’s work: while Dune was criticized for its lack of inclusiveness, the director of Jaws actually had the opportunity to have a chat with Villeneuve, showing him all his admiration for the work done.
“Let me start by saying that there are directors that I I consider myself creators of worlds. It’s not a long list and we know who many of these are: starting from Méliès and Disney and Kubrick, then George Lucas. I also include Ray Harryhausen. Fellini shaped the worlds of him, Tim Burton. Obviously Wes Anderson, Peter Jackson, James Cameron, Christopher Nolan, Ridley Scott, Guillermo Del Toro. And I firmly believe that you are one of the new members of this category” were the words with which Spielberg addressed the director of Blade Runner 2049.
The director of Schindler’s List then continued: “You shot one of the best science fiction movies I’ve ever seen. It’s visually epic and has characters that have been drawn out very, very deeply“. Quite an endorsement, don’t you think? On the box-office front, however, Dune 2 is proving to be the greatest success ever for Timothée Chalamet.
