Oh Man, My appreciation of this film just keeps growing the older I get and the more I re-view it. Truly a masterpiece.
An extraordinarily special Eclipse of talented people at the TOP of their game! the script, writing, directing, conceptual art, design, set design, set decoration, (practical) special effects, miniatures, model making, costume design, acting, I can go on and on and on..
... A FEMALE heroine lead, written correctly, not in your face, nor forced upon. She has no super powers, is not a beauty model, is not the love interest of another character. She try's to follow the rules(don't break quarantine), is compassionate(comes back for the cat), and smart witted, she is faced with a challenge and she deals with it... again I can go on and on...
Researching the costumes for my Project Run, I must have watched this film about two dozen times, scanning for different angles and what not,.. and I must say that I enjoy every viewing, moreover I notice some new detail that just hid in the background or noticed another subliminal meaning hidden in the piece...
Fun Fact - Did you know that the set designer/decorator was Roger Christian, he worked on Star Wars before, notice how the nostromo resembles the interior of the Millennium Falcon?
