Arrival (2016): The Short Story Hollywood Said Was Unfilmable

Описание: In November of two thousand sixteen, a science fiction film about a linguist trying to communicate with aliens opened in American theaters. It was made for forty-seven million dollars. Its source material was a Ted Chiang short story that Hollywood had repeatedly called impossible to adapt. The studio wanted a conventional alien invasion movie with a villain and action sequences. Denis Villeneuve refused. This is the story of Arrival — the years Eric Heisserer spent fighting to get the script made, the alien language Amy Adams learned to write by hand, and the twist that was hidden in plain sight so effectively that many viewers didn't realize the opening scene was actually the ending.
