Say the name "Sigourney Weaver" and many of you immediately think "Alien." But those sci-fi thrillers aren't the only pivotal films in the career of this three-time Academy Award-nominated actress. Weaver received one of those honors for her performance in "Gorillas in the Mist: The Story of Dian Fossey." The 1988 biopic changed Weaver's life, for the better.
