We are not alone. Our Spielberg Summer series continues with one of the filmmaker’s most personal and awe-inspiring works: the Director's Cut of Close Encounters of the Third Kind, a Science Fiction epic that looks to the stars with wonder instead of fear. After an inexplicable encounter with a mysterious object in the night sky, ordinary family man Roy Neary begins experiencing strange visions that consume his life and lead him toward a destiny he cannot understand. As reports of unexplained phenomena spread across the globe, Roy joins a growing search for answers that culminates in one of the most unforgettable finales in movie history. Where many Sci Fi films imagine alien contact as a threat, Close Encounters of the Third Kind dares to imagine it as a miracle. Spielberg's knack for groundbreaking visual effects with a deeply human sense of curiosity shine brightly here, paired, of course, with a brilliant score from the one and only John Williams. It's a reminder of why we go to the movies in the first place.
