234 - Arrival

from We Watched A Thing

This week we’re learning a new language and chatting with aliens, all while discussing the 2016 sci-fi drama ‘Arrival’ at the request of a patron! Arrival is a 2016 American science fiction drama film directed by Denis Villeneuve and adapted by Eric Heisserer, who conceived the project as a spec script based on the 1998 short story "Story of Your Life" by Ted Chiang. The film stars Amy Adams as Louise Banks, a linguist enlisted by the United States Army to discover how to communicate with extraterrestrial aliens who have arrived on Earth, before tensions lead to war. Jeremy Renner, Forest Whitaker, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Tzi Ma appear in supporting roles. We Watched A Thing is supported by Dendy Cinemas Canberra.
