In 1979, for the first time on screens, a mainstream feature film will mix two distinct worlds of genre cinema: science fiction and horror. Its director, Ridley Scott, forever shakes up the cinematic landscape by plunging the audience into anguish with his oppressive universe and his iconic monster. The documentary Alien, terror in space looks back at the lasting impact of this masterpiece, exploring Ridley Scott's audacity and the genesis of his unique aesthetic. In the claustrophobic corridors of the Nostromo spaceship, the heroine Ripley, played by a young Sigourney Weaver, becomes the first strong female figure to redefine the conventions of the genre, far from the clichés of the time. By revisiting key sequences from the film, the documentary shows how Alien explores profound themes such as survival and dehumanization, while reflecting a scathing critique of the capitalist system. Thanks to the actors Veronica Cartwright and Tom Skerritt, and artistic director Roger Christian, among others, the documentary is rich in anecdotes revealing the behind-the-scenes of this legendary filming. Forty-five years after its release, the fascination exerted by Alien remains intact in every way. Praised by fans, it is also the starting point of a franchise that continues to grow. Aimed at pop culture fans, the documentary Alien, terror in space offers an immersion into this terrifying and still captivating film. See less
