Review of the fascination 1977 French documentary by Barbet Schroeder on Koko, the world famous gorilla that learned to use sign language.
A few years back I used to be more involved with film. I did some unpaid work for Empire when interning at FHM (basically Bauer didn't really want to give me any money). This did however open doors later down the road for more film writing work and the odd bit of paid coverage in other publications. Anyway, I still try to keep myself at least a little involved in that world, so when the people behind Pop Up Screens / Science Flicktion got in touch, I said yes please!
In a nutshell - these are film screenings with both a scientist and comedian providing commentary. The scientist helps viewers explore the science (no matter how tenuous) behind the film in more detail, whilst the comedian carpet bombs the proceeding with lulz and stops shit getting too serious.
This screening was for Ridley Scott's Alien, one of my favourite sci-fi franchises. The scientist in attendance was Adam Rutherford (black jacket, no beard) - a real swell guy, host of BBC Radio 4’s Inside Science, author of a book called ‘Creation’ - y’know... guy knows stuff. The comedian? Richard Sandling (black jacket, strong beard). He’s a comedian who seems to have carved a niche out in jokes about films (though I assume he has non movie related material too). He was also on Peep Show at some point and won So You Think You’re Funny in 2007. They both seemed nice enough.
In some ways, Alien shows its age - it was quite obvious that the Xenomorph is basically a guy in a (albeit very fancy) rubber suit. The film is still fkn awesome though - never gets old!
Well, that's one way to do it.
