CHALLENGERS (2024) Dir. Luca Guadagnino
i'm thinking about chani as written by denis villeneuve and the idea of the greek chorus. the members the chorus are meant to explain the messages the audience is meant to take away from the play, or to provide the average person's perspective on everything that takes place. and isn't that the exact kind of role that villeneuve has said he wants chani to fill? her role is that of the true moral compass, here to hammer home the reminder that paul is not and will not be morally sanctified by the narrative and that ultimately villeneuve's dune is about how paul's good intentions cannot excuse or codone his actions. villeneuve has assigned chani the role of the greek chorus and if you don't listen to her and use her as your frame of reference for understanding the film as intended, you're not watching dune properly.
so i while back i found not one but TWO of these memes on pinterest
and i felt like i had to pay homage to the original by making them ponies, so here’s my rendition

"This is the way it had to be, Leto, she thought. "A time of love and a time of grief. She rested her hand on her abdomen,"
Feyd Rautha, pointing to Chani: Who's that? Your pet?
Feyd Rautha pulls out his phone and opens the gallery in the same second: Look, I have three too! This picture here is of them eating a human, this one too, and this one.... They're pretty voracious. I love them.
