  Close Encounters of the Third Kind 1977

  ★★★★½ Watched 19 Jul 2023 1

  Wow. What a massive blind spot for me. 

  Watched the Director’s Cut.

  Sort of terrifying at the start, but winds up incredibly beautiful and hopeful.  I felt like a child watching this, Spielberg is so good at inducing that sense of wonder in the viewer. The ending really blew me away.

  Do not know how they found the perfect little boy to be Barry. Absolutely floored by the performance they brought out of him.

  Music as communication. Two intergalactic keyboardists just trying to speak the same language. Amazing.

  Not absolutely *perfect*, but damn close. Loved this. Beam me up.

  Memoria 2021

  I already get sleepy during movies so this one was tough but I keep thinking about it. Felt like I was in a daze the entire time. Still images started to bend in weird ways. I’m gonna make my parents watch this and they will never ask me for a recommendation again.
