Something I thought was important from the mini-series was Jessica banning the water sellers outside the palace and aallowing free rashions for the city fremen rather than the Harkonnen style growing the palm trees and exploiting the city fremen to pay for their water…

In the script this is only vaguely spoken about by Dr. Yueh in a small deleted segment as he explains the water sellers and there is no script entry for the free ration system. But the Fremen at the gates was shot with their funny hats…

I would like to somehow include the bit about the palms in the filmbook as intended… Harkonnens flaunting their water wealth. I wonder if it is the picture of the large rock wall with the trees on top? This is the alternative I imagine to the “weather. See Storms. No precipitation” in the film book.

Seems as though this was purposefully removed the palm trees… So I won’t do this now but I defo want to do the sandworm filmbook that Doctor Yueh says that he has for Paul on Caladan.
