Death by Adaptation Podcast - Episode 04: It & Dune
Death By Adaptation is Clapper’s monthly book club, where a group of cinephiles and bibliophiles meets up to discuss new and classic books and their cinematic adaptations, focusing on historical relevance, fun pieces of trivia, and how distinctly different the written and visual art forms are.
In this episode, we discuss the Andy Muschietti-directed It films, focusing on how differently horror is approached compared to Stephen King’s gargantuan novel. Next, we talk about the sci-fi epic that is Frank Herbert’s Dune, how David Lynch did his best to adapt such a multi-layered political story, and whether or not Denis Villeneuve’s version lives up to its hype.
