Yeah it can't be much more than a year between the start of Part One and the end of Part Two (which looking at the notes is I think what op meant).

Terrible purpose sure ages a mf.

i think that some people don’t see exactly how drastically paul changes from part one to part two compared to the book. at least from what the movies make it out to be, the gap from the first movie to part two is roughly a year, maybe more. in the book, however, there is a three year period where paul undergoes all the changes that only happened between the two movies. despite the book’s timeline, i think that denis is able to perfectly encapsulate all of these little changes that build paul’s character arch from a boy on caladan to the emperor of the known universe and a religious figurehead to the fremen.

#they have a lot of tricks to make him look older/younger depending on the vibe the scene calls for #the hair is a slider that adjusts his age by like 5 years depending on how it's styled #and he changes his physicality in a lot of subtle ways over the course of part two #i've got a lot of thoughts about all the ripple effects of collapsing the timeline but tl;dr it was a surprise but i think it mostly works #whatever you do don't think about how the period of time when he was fighting with the fedaykin and had friends #who were his peers and equals for the first time in his life #was like 6 months long at the absolute maximum #dune #dune 2021 #dune part two #paul atreides
