Dune (2021): An Islam-Inspired Theme With Powerful Aesthetics, but Reminiscent of Lynch
Villeneuve’s Dune is a masterpiece for its crafting process, but references to David Lynch's picture are sometimes too obvious.
Coward
He is a strict self-disciplinarian, embracing the uniformity and routine of his Spartan lifestyle sustained on a diet of canned food, video games balanced off with the occasional push-ups. On the flip side of the coin, he is loser-defeatist resigned to failure and victimhood. Then a woman from his past comes back into his life and just when things start looking up, complications come pouring in the form of the intriguingly rude and brutish landlord. Will he succumb to cowardice and turn a blind eye to the casual flirtation and infidelity unfolding before him, or will he step out of his comfort zone and pluck up the courage to fight for his love?
