About this product
Product Information
A departure for director John Carpenter, STARMAN is a gentle, simple film that won accolades from critics and applause from audiences. Jeff Bridges plays the title character, an alien that has come down to Earth on a peaceful scouting mission. When he takes the form of a recently widowed woman's dead husband he unintentionally involves her in his mission. The alien only has a few days to reach a rendezvous point where he will be picked up by his mothership. Along the way he must discover what he can about human beings and our civilization. He finds out plenty very quickly, as his relationship with the young widow grows very strong as they make their way to the rendezvous point. Meanwhile, the FBI is in hot pursuit after it discovers the discarded landing vehicle, and the alien's own health is deteriorating in Earth's foreign atmosphere. The story tells of the struggle for communication, the pain of letting go, and the search for understanding. Jeff Bridges gives an unforgettable performance as the gentle alien trying his best to cope with being a human. With STARMAN, Carpenter proves he is a master storyteller, not just of horror and science fiction, but of subtle, emotional drama as well.Product Identifiers

Great Movie, with an unusual story. Well worth watching even several times over.
I was very Surprised by how good the story and acting was. It is most unusual even for a Science Fiction movie. The filming was great and it kept you on the edge of your seat numerous times. Jeff Bridges and Karen Allen did a very well acted role and the movie left you wanting more at the end. 2 Hours of great entertainment and enjoyment. John S.

Starman is compelling and entertaining
Starman with Jeff Bridges and Karen Allen are in a unique situation together. He comes to Earth because we(the government and scientists) have invited him to visit. Once here, he must return in three days or die. Karen Allen's character is a grieving widow who experiences the unexpected visitor from outer space. Together they make a dynamite situation which is complicated by the government official's chase into a soft romantic time that will change both of their lives. The story is continued in a follow up from the movie in the form of the tv series: Starman the Complete Series with Robert Hays as the alien. I still recommend both stories even if it's not as popular as it was. Well worth your time and it is good entertainment re-visited.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Starman movie
Starman is an older movie, and one my husband and I enjoyed. Sci-fi, love story, and just enough humor to make you smile. Plenty of action, as well. Jeff Bridges, and other familiar faces make the movie worth watching. Starman arrives in response to an "invitation", but is greeted by the same government that invited him, in any way but friendly. The movie revolves around his attempt to meet up with a ship to return home--or die, many states from where he landed, and his ship was confiscated when found. A race against time, and obstacles. Special effects are "ok", to pretty darn good. Profanity is minimal, maybe two not so bad words. I bought it for the trip down memory lane. Found it's still an enjoyable movie, and worth watching.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Wellmade story about the first contact between worlds
Interesting storyline about a entity from Another World that visits our planet, and learns of the World we live in. Very good acting, and an unexpected romantic twist in this adventurous Movie about a first Alien encounter. A really catching journey between two lost souls that explore eachother during a few Days towards a common goal.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Jeff Bridges Gold
This is a wonderful movie from the past and it's one of the best early ones that Jeff did. He's so young in this one. It's a great love story with a touch of ET. I've seen it before and just had to have a copy.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Ground control to Jeff Bridges
As a Jeff Bridges fan, and usually NOT a fan of "space movies" I never get enough of the romance, the humor and the feel good message of this movie. Sigh.....Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
