Ridley Scott’s sci-fi classic celebrates its 40th anniversary. The story of the Nostromo crew’s dispatch to a distant and deserted planet, the film is remarkable for a number of reasons, not least the central character of Ripley (Weaver). Originally conceived as a male protagonist, Weaver makes Ripley her own, proving as resourceful and tenacious as the alien life form she must combat.
