Episode: #31: Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)
Description: Show Notes
We watch the other 1977 sci-fi classic, Stephen Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind. How does Roy’s fanaticism work against him and how do Dreyfuss’s current views taint his performances? How do they think five notes is all we need to know? Did humans agree to the prior abductions? Why are Roy and his wife together? Should they make a sequel? There are a lot of questions – see if we can answer any of them.
