Sting is my favorite part of David Lynch’s Dune
Poor Sting. In 1983, the frontman of The Police was at the height of his popularity. The trio’s fifth album, Synchronicity, topped the Billboard charts for 17 nonconsecutive weeks during the summer of ’83, interrupted only by Michael Jackson’s Thriller. The year prior, Sting landed a breakout acting role in the film adaptation of Brimstone and Treacle, playing a conman-pickpocket-rapist — a role that seemed destined to launch a small but respectable film career.
