MASHED POTATOES SCENE!

the kids’ reaction is heartbreaking.

and Richard Dreyfuss is an amazing everyman.

i just realized the crew they have prepared, look like out of a cult.

what's the name of that death cult that they all offed themselves in their jumpsuits and Adidas?

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

this scene with the government guys, setting up the stage for plausible deniability?

so enraging.

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

and what did you expect to find?

AN ANSWER!

LMAO i just reckoned the guy selling gas masks in this evacuation scene. pure Americana.

and now come in the french horns. John Williams is truly Spielberg’s ear.

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

this scene, after he built the giant model of the peak and the wife calls and they're bickering and the tv is blaring with the evacuation report and HE IS NOT LOOKING AT THE DAMN TELEVISION. it’s almost as if Spielberg decided it was one long ass pun of the concept of ALIENATION.

the wife though.

what's interesting about this scene is the set up for the ending.

would you rather be abducted by aliens or live in suburban domesticity hell?

the little dots moving in the starry night 🤩

and we are in the Dark Side Of The Moon.

“this is not a drill. i repeat, this is not a drill.”

“i don't think we could ask for a more beautiful evening.”

poor Larry.

Spielberg did this also in E.T. and briliantly: showing the lengths to which the state goes to gaslight people.

Return of the El Greco clouds!

Msr Lecombe?

What's happening?

Je ne c’est pas mais ce beau.

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

ok, start with a tone.

up a full tone.

down a major third.

now drop an octave.

up a perfect fifth.

nothing.

nothing at all.

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

the film cameras still make me go ooooooh!

we don't even use film anymore.

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

the exploding glass is just the cherry on top of all the ambient sound designed for this scene to make it seem natural to the place and action.

seriously, the twinkle twinkle little star jam would be nothing without the ambient sounds layered under and over it.

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

the lights

the ship gyrating & revealing its massiveness

the techs standing aghast

the Ray Bans

the one tear streaking the keyboardist’s cheek

the set-up of this ending is just 👩🏾🍳💋

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

what i love about this scene is the static noise in the background. this thing is so massive and has so much vibrating metal it just distort all around it.

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

here comes Momma!

look at her go in the night!

#LizaIsWatching #CloseEncounters #movies

oh, i had it wrong. the big alien comes out first and then the little aliens follow.

one of those little aliens looks like Barry (the little boy that got abducted).
