Alien deleted scene: Ripley Reassures Lambert - good quality

After Dallas' death, Ripley has this short exchange with Lambert. It serves as an uneasy reconciliation for the earlier conflict between the two women as well as indicating Ripley's suspicions about Ash and a casual attitude towards sex.

Alien 5 being a prequel confirmed-:
http://www.totalfilm.com/news/alien-5... ''It's actually a prequel movie that will explain the origins of the space jockey spaceship.''

Plot:
The story begins when the crew of the commercial transport ship Nostromo receive a transmission which might be of nonhuman origin.

They land on the deserted moon Acheron LV-426 and find a derelict spaceship with a dead alien and many large eggs.

Now, what's the name of the DVD that has all of the deleted scenes, plus all the original ones? That's the one I wanna buy.

The reassuring should have been longer..I sense something lesbian in this scene...

[unclealand]

The best reason for cutting this otherwise good scene is that it would have made the already horrible slaughter of Lambert unbearable.

[codafett]

Oh you know.

When was she raped?

[6Bene]

Whats going on in this scene,?

[TAPETRVETVBE]

That's the point, though, innit? In the cinema version, she ends up as little more than a whiny bitch, which her frailty doesn't much help make up for. With the added scenes, she becomes a much more sympathetic character.

I get the impression Ripley's trying to develop a psych profile on Ashe since she suspicious of his motives by this point.

[LostMoonOfBumholle]

If I remember back when I first read the ALIEN book of the movie, I think this is the first indication to us that Ripley suspects Ash isn't quite as he seems. She can't put her finger on it, but something is bugging her about him, and asking Lambert if she slept with him didn't imply that the two women on board were whoring around with the crew - but that Ash's lack of interest and emotion in any circumstance/situation up 'til now was flashing a warning to her.

[codafett]

Maybe she wasn't dead...All we know is that she was raped. She might've fainted.

[Zombihamster]

Poor Lambert :( always wanted to give her a hug.

Great scene - Weaver shows the quintessential strong woman in Ripley who's got it together in a high stress situation. Cartwright shows the vulnerable kind of woman in Lambert who lets her emotions get to her. Awesome actresses and casting!

[TheBob1901]

I guess this scene was deleted because it hinted at too much promiscuity between the crew members, not to mention two women who slept around. That was in 1979. Nowadays, such a scene probably would be retained, except that Ripley would be asking both Lambert AND Parker if either one of them had slept with Ash!
