Carlo Rambaldi, like Stan Winston and Ray Harryhausen, dreamt of wonderful creatures and made them reality. He helped create the head mechanics of H. R. Giger's Alien (for which he won an Oscar), helped design the aliens from CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, the sandworms for DUNE, and worked on many other films. He made these wonderful creatures exist, and gave them real personality.
