Additional Information
CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND is Steven Spielberg's extraordinary film about a man named Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) who becomes obsessed with meeting extraterrestrials after encountering a UFO on an abandoned road one night. Against the wishes of his wife (Teri Garr) and children, Neary, along with another witness to the sighting (Melinda Dillon), travels to a mysterious mountain where the government has built a landing strip hoping to attract the aliens. Director Francois Truffaut costars as Claude Lacombe, one of the organizers of the project. Spielberg hoped to follow up the huge success of JAWS with a low-budget film that would be an easy shoot, but, thanks in part to the complicated special effects, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS quickly snowballed into being an expensive endeavor but a commercial and artistic success. No one who has seen the film has ever looked at a plate of mashed potatotes the same way again.

    close encounters (of the third kind)

    The dvd arrived on time and in a good condition. Two dvds in the box, one was the movie, and one was the making of the movie. Both were good quality for pre used. The film itself is so good, the message behind it is uplifting. I did not see this film when it first came out but now wish that I had. A delightful film.

  • Classic movie Gold.

    Richard Dreyfuss takes the lead role as a man obsessed with Alien contact after a "close encounter ". Put this in your surround system and turn up the volume!
