Universally considered the best film ever made about alien visitation to Earth, Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind was nominated for eight Academy Awards®, winning for Best Cinematography. Power repairman Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) has an extraordinary encounter with a strange spacecraft while out on a call. Recurring visions of a mountain fuel an increasing obsession that drives him to an emotional breaking point. Desperate to understand what he has experienced, he finds an ally in Jillian (Melinda Dillon), a single mother who believes her son has been abducted by the aliens. Meanwhile an international group of scientists led by French expert Claude Lacombe (Francois Truffaut) search for a breakthrough in human-alien communication. Their collective quest culminates in a remote Wyoming rendezvous and an event of unequalled importance in all of human history. 1977, renewed 2005 Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc.

Last time I saw this was at the KOA near Devil's Tower. They show it nightly on the wall of a building outside with Devil's Tower in the background. It's a fun experience to watch this although I have to wonder how tame it might seem in today's world. Back before this came out the 'Close Encounter' idea was mysterious and full of wonder but now with the over saturation of our senses these days with all things weird I doubt many will get the same enjoyment we experienced in the theatres during it's debut. Don't go into it expecting today's over the top effects and just enjoy the story.

I've been to Devils Tower!! It was awesome!!

Love this movie
