id: two photos of Sigourney Weaver, who played Ripley, in her costumes from the movie Alien. One is of her green jumpsuit; the other is of her in a tanktop and lowcut underwear.
text id: A quote from Weaver at the bottom of the image says, “In the original script, there was some nudity, just people getting up from their "hypersleep' vaults and being naked in space. The whole idea of people moving through a hard, technological environment just in their skin was so provocative. I thought it was a nice concept, but they decided not to do it because they would lose potential markets for the film. There was talk that the Alien would see this being transform in front of its eyes, from a green thing to a beige, soft thing, and that would be fascinating to it, yes, perhaps turn the alien on. Ripley is very kinky about these things, I think it was a compromise just to have Ripley undress partway.”
