Abstract :This study presents an in-depth examination of the emotional landscape and subjective depth within the screenplay of the 2021 film adaptation of \\\"Dune.\\\" Utilizing TextBlob for sentiment analysis, including word clouds, we quantitatively assess the polarity and subjectivity scores associated with key characters in the narrative. Our findings reveal significant insights into character development, narrative engagement, and the emotional dynamics that underpin the film\\\'s storytelling. The analysis highlights the varied emotional experiences of characters such as Stilgar, who exhibits high positive sentiment and subjectivity, contrasting with antagonists like the Baron, who is characterized by negative sentiment. This paper underscores the utility of sentiment analysis in understanding and critiquing cinematic narratives, offering a novel perspective on film appreciation that focuses on emotional and subjective experiences.
