I’ve got a must-watch documentary that focuses on the making of Steven Spielberg’s classic 1977 sci-fi film Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
This movie blew my mind when I first watched it when I was kid, and it had a pretty big affect on me with its awe-inspiring and terrifying story.
I recently came across this making of documentary for the film from 2001, which I had never seen before, and it’s filled with all kinds of fascinating insight and cool details about how the film was made that I never knew before.
The movie explores the life-altering encounters between humans and extraterrestrial life forms. It follows Roy Neary, an ordinary electrician in Indiana, whose life takes a dramatic turn after witnessing a UFO.
As Neary becomes obsessed with understanding the meaning behind his encounter, he experiences a series of mysterious visions and a compulsion to travel to a remote location.
Parallel to Neary’s story, the film portrays scientists and government officials trying to decode similar alien signals. Their collective quest culminates in a grand meeting at Devil’s Tower, Wyoming, where humans and aliens have a peaceful, monumental rendezvous.
If you’re a movie buff that is a fan of this flick, then you’ve got to watch this!
