The untold origin story behind Ridley Scott’s Alien – rooted in Greek and Egyptian mythologies, underground comics, the art of Francis Bacon, and the dark visions of Dan O’Bannon and H.R. Giger. A contemplation on the symbiotic collaborative process of movie-making, the power of myth, and our collective unconscious.
“Alien” is one of my all time favourite films, to hear they’re doing this documentary about the origins of it all is very exciting.
Thee filmmakers have said “Memory – The Origins Of Alien” will reveal previously unseen materials from the archives of writer Dan O’Bannon and designer H.R. Giger, including story notes, drawings, designs, behind-the-scenes footage, and O’Bannon’s original 29-page Memory script from 1971. What “Alien” fan wouldn’t want to see that?!
