In the new episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, two films that came together at very different speeds. Alien Vs Predator was sparked by a spec script, but it'd be Paul W S Anderson who got the job - and he spent his own cash on something rather special for his pitch. Parenthood, meanwhile, was the idea of director Ron Howard - but bringing together its incredible cast was not without challenges. Stories of both are discussed in this episode.
