Steven Spielberg and Close Encounters of the Third Kind

new original UFO history documentary

This documentary covers the early life and career of Steven Spielberg leading up to his first major UFO film Close Encounters of the Third Kind, released in 1977. It covers how Spielberg’s lifelong fascination with UFOs and with film making would ultimately lead to his seminal UFO film.

It also covers J Allen Hynek who was the scientific advisor to the Air Force’s UFO investigation Project Blue Book in the 1950s and 1960s. Hynek would eventually leave Project Blue Book accusing the Air Force of covering up the reality of the UFO phenomenon. Hynek would later be an advisor to Spielberg and would greatly influence Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

This video also goes scene by scene with Close Encounters illustrating real world events and easter eggs the film draws on.

LONGLEGS (2024)
Director Osgood Perkins claims to have hidden 15 devils in the film. After a thorough search...I only found 10 of them. Super creepy. Has anyone found the other 5?
