A Classic Sci-fi Drama



If you enjoy Science Fiction at all, then you know that Close Encounters Of The Third Kind is a must see classic.  When I saw the full movie on YouTube, I just felt I needed to post this classic.

Story:   Roy Neary sets out to investigate a power outage when his truck stalls and he is bathed in light from above. After this, strange visions and five musical notes keep running through his mind. Will he find the meaning of the visions, and who - or what - placed them in his mind?

Written and Directed by Steven Spielberg
Starring Richard Dreyfuss and Teri Garr as Roy and Ronnie Neary

The movie is actually quite visually impressive for being made in 1977.  The gripping sound effects earned the movie a special achievement Oscar.

Even though this is a loved classic, there were a lot flaws in the movie.  While you are watching, see if you can pick some out.  Please leave a comment, if you find one.

Now go get a drink and some popcorn and enjoy.
