ANGELIKA’S NOTE

In the Director’s Cut of Steven Spielberg’s (SHINDLER’S LIST, E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL) classic 94%-fresh rated, Academy Award winning CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, the viewer is in for a “masterpiece of wide-eyed whimsy”, according to Empire Magazine. Starring Richard Dreyfuss (THE GOODBYE GIRL, JAWS) as Roy, a UFO witness determined to figure out what is going on, this iconic cinematic masterpiece highly regarded for its beauty, magic, and incredible special effects. New York Times describes it as "The best -- the most elaborate -- 1950's science fiction movie ever made, a work that borrows its narrative shape and its concerns from those earlier films, but enhances them with what looks like the latest developments in movie and space technology."
