 Despite releasing a new version of the film titled "Alien: The  Directors Cut", Ridley Scott (qv) wrote in a statement in the  films packaging that he still feels the original Alien was his  perfect vision of the film. The newer version is titled "The  Directors Cut" for marketing purposes, featuring deleted scenes  many fans wanted to see incorporated into the film (such as the  scene where Lambert and Ripley discuss whether or not theyve slept  with Ash, suggesting theres something not quite right about Ash).
