In our latest episode, Dhruv, Amartya, Hemant, and Prithwish talk about Denis Villeneuve's latest science-fiction blockbuster, "Dune: Part Two" -- a film that Dhruv and Amartya were skeptical about because they disliked "Part One," and Hemant and Prithwish were excited for because they loved "Part One." Is there going to be a similar disagreement over "Part Two"?

It seems not! We are unanimously impressed by Villeneuve's second part of Frank Hebert's "unadaptable" book, looking at it through many lenses—auteurism, blockbuster filmmaking, narrative continuation, and adaptation—and finding it hard to fault much about it.

Listen to the full, spoiler-filled episode to hear us talk about "Part Two's" impeccable use of music and sound, its much-improved characterizations from "Part One," and, most importantly, its unexpected Bollywood connections.
