In 1977, Ridley Scott was considering making a medieval period piece. Then he saw 'Star Wars' and set about making two sci-fi classics, 'Alien' and 'Blade Runner.'
Scott already had a thick screenplay sitting on his desk back at his office at his advertising firm Ridley Scott Associates —a big-screen version of the medieval tale Tristan and Isolde. The script was in solid shape and was just waiting to go before the camera. Scott had already figured out how it would look, how it would be paced, the actors he saw in the title roles. And yet, the doubts buzzing in the back of his brain kept growing louder and more insistent.
“I remember I was in a horrible office in Times Square, and I was staring down at this billboard that said, ‘Alien … In Space No One Can Hear You Scream,’” says Scott. “I could also see a queue going all the way around the block. I hadn’t seen that since Star Wars. So at that point, I kind of figured that we would be in good shape.
