I read Dune at about 14 or 15, in the Pacific Northwest, where we'd never heard of a local drought, and it rained 10 months of the year (it's not like that anymore, WONDER WHY? *wink wink*). Anyway, that physical environment also cast a strange light on waterless Dune for me, a strangeness that sort of stamped me for life.
Yeah, but some people were claiming that she had alzheimers and her caretaker(s?) were manipulating here. The whole thing was so disconcerting, and completely unknowable, that I stopped paying attention, so your sense of it could be much better than mine.
I was lucky enough to read the book before seeing the movie too--but I still remember my shock of delight when I saw/heard Peck's Atticus match almost perfectly with the one in my head. It's so rare that that happens--I can only remember once or twice in my life.

*backs away slowly, eye on exit*
*waves* Mine too. What was your favorite bit? I liked "The Visionary" best.
Also, the sand dunes along the Oregon coast were an inspiration visually, so I hear.

Yeah, I gotta say that just sounds sensible to me.
All of it. Really, I can't choose. What an amazing combination of anthropology and imagination. It blew me away.
It's a bit unfair to call go set a watchman a draft of to kill a mocking bird.
NO!
