Alien: The Director's Cut
Ridley Scott / GB, US, 1979 / 114 min.
45 years on from its première: Ridley Scott’s Alien, sci-fi classic extraordinaire, swarmed by prequels and sequels. High time for a re-screening of this unforgettable flick with stellar roles for John Hurt, Sigourney Weaver and the art direction by H.R. Giger.
Upon its release, Alien was lauded as an intelligent addition to the science fiction genre. The story of the crew of spaceship Nostromo and how they fall prey to a bad-tempered, aggressive alien entity pretty much instantly achieved the status of a wayward classic with a feminist touch.
