One of the best films ever made. Have watched it dozens of times and I never get tired of it. Awesome.

As a 7-year old kid watching this, it both terrified me and combined with Star Wars gave me a lifelong fascination with Space.

As a 54-year old rewatching it, am aporeciative of the reality, subtelty and genuis of it. And the iconic imagery and acting.

I was the same age as this kid when I saw this at the pool’s film night in Rio de Janeiro. This movie made a profound impact on who I later became as an adult and led me to a lifelong fascination and career in science and aerospace

Another out-of-control custody dispute.

Most kids would be terrified of the storm clouds rolling out like ocean waves. This kid suprisingly smiled at this occurence.

Whenever I hear 'Chances are' by Johnny Mathis, I think of this scene. Masterpiece!

[neilmarquardt]

Little known fact: Most alien abduction take place while Johnny Mathis is playing in the background.

Scared the hell out of me when I first saw this. The drive home I just stared at the sky👽

That classic Spielberg camera zoom on Berry's face while he says toys is brilliant!

The child is happy. The poltergeist music is what makes it terrifying.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind opened at the Ziegfeld theater in New York City the week before Thanksgiving 1977. It was such an experience for me as a teenager that I was compelled to watch 25 times.

[Myndale]

I was 6 when my parents took me to see this, almost crapped my pants during this scene!

This scene terrified me as a kid. It's very intense for a young 8 year old when I saw this at the theater.

[mysticwolf]

Not gonna lie - if I was standing outside and saw those UFOs heading my way, I'd stay out there shouting "Beam me up!"

[parkpunk]

Saw when it came out. I was 6. For much of my childhood I thought of Close Encounters as kind of a horror movie. When the kid opens the door it looks like HELL outside! Very scary.

[DRanonDoctorANON]

Did anyone notice the wall clock minute arm move rapidly through time in the living room scene? Never noticed that before.

[davidnorman]

I absolutely love this movie. I saw it 3 times at the theater in the 70's (and that just didn't happen back then).
1. At 2:58: maybe they're upstairs, where you completely forgot to shut and lock the windows.
2. There must be some backstory (I read the novelization back then, but don't remember), but Gillian must have got that house from a dead grandmother or something. There is some seriously old-lady shit in that house.
