221 // Anatomy of a Scene: Brett’s Death

One of our most popular episode formats on Shoulder of Orion: The Blade Runner Podcast (sister show to PO) is "Anatomy of a Scene," where we break down exactly what makes a given sequence so iconic. On today's episode, we apply that same format to one of Alien's most enduringly frightening moments: Brett's death at the hands of the creature.

Join Jaime, Patrick, and Christian as they explore this episode from all sorts of angles—technical, philosophical, film-theoretical—and let us know if there are other scenes in the Alien saga you'd like to hear us discuss on future episodes!
