Ridley Scott And His Lucky 'Alien' Break
In 1978, Ridley Scott won the award for "Best First Work" at the Cannes Film Festival, for an historical drama called The Duelists. With a working budget of less than $1 million, it was about as far as you could get from a blockbuster science fiction movie. So, how did Scott manage to land Alien as his second film (and first Hollywood directing assignment)? While talking about the latest film in the franchise, Alien: Romulus, Scott about the twist of fate that jump-started his now illustrious career.
Alien: Romulus is now playing in theaters.
