A24

She was believable in both roles.

That's why I call Alien the dark side of 2001: ASO.

I didn't buy the premise of The Village, and, as usual, Shyamalan never bothers to make things believable. Oddly enough, Unbreakable, with the exception of the family scenes, is his most believable movie, which is probably due to the core idea of making superheroes more realistic, and thus more believable. It's an incredible movie. One of Scorsese's best.

Have you seen the movies she's in? You don't think she's adequate for these type of flicks?

Who hasn't seen The Village (2004)?!

In 1979 I thought Alien was the scariest movie ever. Now I think it's a masterpiece in mood, design and direction (storytelling). It also makes me wonder what the frack happened to Ridley Scott.

I remember that I did not switch it off.

I once bought it for a friend's birthday. It's probably worth its weight in gold now.

Anyway, I think it was because of Omar Sharif.

I never confronted her with that particular question, but who knows, maybe it was. Say, is there a male nakedness in Lawrence?

Hey, that was my mom's favorite flick, together with Lawrence Of Arabia.

Never seen it!

Is that a new Campion?

With Severance and now Ripley I can safely say that the Golden Age of Television is still alive.

That's how it always should be, IMO. And it's what Spielberg said about Empire Of The Sun (without saying it's his best movie, of course, I don't think Spielberg likes to speak in those terms, neither did Kubrick). Ridley Scott describes Blade Runner as his most personal movie. Somehow I'm more drawn towards their most personal movies than towards their 'audience movies'.
