The Film Colloquium presents the director’s cut of ALIEN (Ridley Scott, 1979) on 35mm, print courtesy of the Yale Film Archive. This film is shown as part of the Colloquium’s “Spaced Out: Outer Space and Altered States” series.

In the nearly forty years since its initial release, ALIEN has become a classic, giving rise to a number of sequels, novels, comic books, and other related productions. This film also launched the career of Sigourney Weaver, who stars as Warrant Officer Ripley. Though slightly shorter than the original cut of the film, this version includes many alternate scenes notincluded in the 1970 film.

Event is free and open to all.
