I had such a ball on Dune. I just cannot
tell you how much. First of all when I
went in for the meeting with with David
Lynch and Dino De Laurentiis and
Raffaella sitting in the meeting. They
wanted me to do the Baron and they said
we'd like you to put on a 100 pounds and
I said to myself I ain't gonna do that
because as big as I am another
100 pounds will put me in a box.
I said I want to be in the movie but...
They didn't want to build a suit
and in the end they built a suit
for the guy who did the Baron
but they didn't want to build the suit
they wanted me and said I wouldn't
I just, you know, it's going to kill me
I don't want to do that
So I did the nephew.
We had five full units with five
directors shooting full time for six
months we had three kitchens.
We had an American kitchen and chef
we had a Spanish cook and chef and
we had an Italian cook and chef
so you could eat, there were five full
crews, you got to feed them somewhere
and we had we took the whole studio,
took all of Churubusco studio
