Louis summary of Alien

Alien - Louis analysis




Louis has analysed Alien. From his work, I can see that the writers have used sluglines to identify the location of the scene. I can also see that the writers have put action into the script, but in a different way. The writers have also followed the rule on capitalising names and locations which haven't been mentioned yet. The writers of Alien have also followed many other traditional rules of scriptwriting. All the characters have woken inside a pod. The scene where they haven't arrived home shows the sense of mystery in this film. The structure is clearly linear as they take place after one another. The genre is clearly sci-fi because there are unknown transmissions. Alien is aimed at people who like sci-fi and outer-space.
