“Memory: The Origins of Alien” Documentary Screening

A screening of the critically-acclaimed documentary Memory: The Origins of Alien followed by a Q&A with the film’s director, Alexandre O. Philippe. The feature-length film, which premiered to rave reviews in the Midnight Section at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, unearths the largely untold origin story behind Ridley Scott’s cinematic masterpiece. The film reveals a treasure trove of never-before-seen materials from the archives of Alien creators, Dan O’Bannon and H.R. Giger, including original story notes, rejected designs and storyboards, exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, and O’Bannon’s original 29 page script from 1971, titled Memory.

The Memory: The Origins of Alien screening and Q&A is hosted by Legion M and Screen Media, and celebrates the epic horror/Sci-Fi film’s 40th anniversary.
