Director John Carpenter presents a romantic science fiction odyssey starring Jeff Bridges as an innocent alien from a distant planet who learns what it means to be a man in love. When his spacecraft is shot down over Wisconsin, Starman (Bridges) arrives at the remote cabin of a distraught young widow, Jenny Hayden (Karen Allen), and clones the form of her dead husband. The alien convinces Jenny to drive him to Arizona, explaining that if he isn't picked up by his mothership in three days, he'll die. Hot on their trail are government agents, intent on capturing the alien, dead or alive. Enroute, Starman demonstrates the power of universal love, while Jenny rediscovers her human feelings for passion.

This film was effectively E.T but for grown-ups. It remains to this day as one of the very few truly great sci-fi/romance films of all time.
Way before ET
After. E.T. was '82. Starman was '84.
dude thats what i said i always looked at this film as an indirect message of peace
and to think this was a Carpenter film
Karen Allen has NEVER been better. She made this role so believable...
❤Karen 😊 💚🧜♀️
A performance that should be recognized more.
This is one of john carpenter's masterpieces and yet john hardly ever refers to this film in interviews...One of his best.
Big time! And I’m glad the Starman didn’t came to earth to enslave it but to bring actual peace, and the best he actually fell in love and gonna have a child too someday!
@@howlpendragon26 Tv series is canceled after the season 1, it deserves more stories more seasons..
@@mickrozycki451 Which?
@@mickrozycki451 I've seen that, good point.
It's kind of like Steven Spielberg's "The Color Purple"
Dang, this film always gets me a tad choked up. And er, is anyone else in here just a bit in love with Karen Allen?
Her performance is one of the many things I admire about this film. She is utterly believable and authentic. I imagine that many guys, after watching this movie, fantasized about marrying Jenny and helping her raise the child and being her partner in living out the rest of her amazing life.
She's absolutely beautiful in this film, but there are so many things that are beautiful about it, it would be unfair not to mention them. Story. Jeff Bridges' acting. Soundtrack. I saw this film when I was around 12 and it had a profound effect on me - I still find it hard not to choke up at the end.
@@FlexoShootFlexo Yes -- it stays with you. I was an adult when I first saw it and its impact on me was huge; I can only begin to imagine how profoundly it would have affected me as a 12-year-old. A beyond remarkable achievement in so many respects.
Karen in questo film è stupenda
She was really very pretty back in the day.
Bridges would have easily won best actor at the Academy Awards had he not been up against both Murray Abraham and Tom Hulce in Amadeus. His performance is so believable in every scene. Knockout role that propelled him to superstardom.
@blainemullins6285, After reading your commentary , I couldn't agree more. It was why I had to go watch "K-Pax in theatres thinking that it would be some kind of conclusion from "starman" , words and rumours were going on about that.
My dad said the same thing. I was a kid when it came out.
John Carpenter in an interview I read years ago, was asked what stood out most for him in his filmmaking career (or to that effect), and he said it was Jeff Bridges' Oscar nomination for Starman. Amazing!
Many greats have missed awards even though deserved. Joan Osborne had a fantastic new album in the 1990s and had several Grammy nominations. I was rooting for her. But that was when Alanis Morissette debuted who appealed to a younger crowd and she swept all of the awards. Joan deserved several but did not get any. :-(
My gosh, this movie score, it still gets me after all these years. One of the most perfect endings of a movie I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen a lot. Then, you have Carpenter choosing to end with Karen Allen’s face with her eyes focused just watching the ship leave, pure perfection and that music…….that damn music.
You're damn right, it made me crying so badly.
Well, the girl was perfect, movie with 90 minutes of this shot with the music would be good enough :)
😭4 years ago I lost my great love, this ending reminded me of the last time we saw each other...in an airport...we just couldn't stop hugging each other
@@ricardocosta9833 This is very sad, I am sorry for your loss.
Great eh!
Karen Allen's acting was superb !!
Very underrated movie.
Agree
It had a lot of competition in 1984 such as Ghostbusters, The Terminator, Sixteen Candles, Footloose, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and the list goes on. Hence, it was a bit overshadowed! In fact, in the 80s, 1984 was the best year and 1987 was the worst year.
Both Jeff’s and Karen’s performances were wonderful. 💓
What do you mean “underrated”? It was always rated even when it came out the critics loved it & even gave Jeff bridges a best actor Oscar nomination,just because it underperformed at the box office didn’t mean it wasn’t critically acclaimed,which it was and has always been acclaimed as being great film. Being “underrated” means a film is better than the reviews and acclaim that it gets.
"Goodbye,Jenny Hayden", and then the main theme kicks in...................... Oh My!
Karen Allen's touching look at the end speaks more than a thousand words
Such a memorable and powerful scene. Brilliantly performed by all involved.
The choice of focusing just on her face and holding that shot for so long was genius and a testament to Karen Allen's acting talent.
I get choked up everytime I watch this ending... man they don't make'em like this anymore.
Ain’t that the truth
We watched this movie at the AMPAS screening before public release (our neighbor Tracy was an employee at AMPAS. ) It was memorable: as the small audience was leaving there in the Lobby was Lloyd Bridges! He wanted to talk with anyone and wanted us to know that the Star of this movie was ... his son! He was dressed in a dapper suit. Quite dapper and very proud. At that moment we didn't realize how famous his sons would become.
Did Lloyd say anything about it being the wrong day to quit sniffing glue?
What a beautiful woman
Got that right.
A goddess.
Not a bit of makeup or Botox in sight!
This is one of my favorite movies. Jeff Bridges was amazing.
He should have gotten an Oscar nod for his performance. He never looked comfortable in his own skin...
Agreed. I believe in an interview he also stated it was one of his favorite roles.
@@chrispile3878you'll be happy to know he was nominated for this film. Unfortunately Amadeus came out the same year
Starman, I love this film. Karen Allen is so beautiful. Jeff Bridges and Karen Allen should have won an award. Seeing this clip from the film, Starman reminds me l must blow the dust off the DVD I have of this film and watch it again. It's been a long time since I last watched this beautiful film🛰🛸👽
People really need to take the time to unpack this more than they do. Jenny lost the love of her life suddenly. Never got to say goodbye. With the Starman coming, taking on the likeness of Scott, she got to experience oneness with Scott again. She got to say goodbye.
Not just likeness, Starman used Scott's DNA. That means the baby is genetically that of her deceased husband. Though Starman was willing to do some butt stuff Scott wouldn't.
This is hands down one of my top 10 movies of all time. Jeff Bridges' performance was out of this world..literally !! Amazing sci-fi and love story all wrapped in one !!!
Jeff bridges was nominated for best actor in this amazing role
I love that Carpenter did this film on the heels of The Thing and Christine. Versatility proven!
Still gets me.
Every single time.
Dang, I crushed so hard on Karen Allen back in the day. Such a beautiful woman.
I remember her best from The Wanderers. She's beautiful.
Yes, the best sci-fi/romance film EVER. Try not to get teared up at the end.
I loved this movie and such an 80s musical score! The film itself was nominated Best Science Fiction Film and Jack Nitzsche received a Golden Globe nomination for his score.
When someone tells me that they don't like scifi movies, I tell them to watch Starman.
And "Resident Alien" is so good. I do believe they got some of their ideas from this movie.
The end song has always stuck with me, great story.
When I saw Raiders of the Lost Ark in the theater as a kid, I didn't think Karen Allen was all that attractive. But here she looks soooo beautiful. I think it's the vulnerability she shows here, as opposed to her tough portrayal of Marion Ravenwood in Raiders. She's so much more human and emotional here.
I love this movie start to finish. Great actors and story. An insight to compassion that humans rarely display
John Carpenter directed this film. Was not expecting him to create a film like this, but it was good!
Hugely under rated. Superb movie
This was a stunningly beautiful movie. Karen Allen was magnificent. One of the very best sci fi movies. Charles Martin Smith, who helped them through the entire movie was wonderful. Jeff Bridges was truly the perfect sweet alien. Karen's eyes at the end had me crying my eyes out.
This movie really needs to come up more in Great 80s Movies conversations.
That final scene with Jenny looking up at the sky has been burned into my psyche since childhood. The way she follows the craft as it departs... Man. Combined with the score and it's movie master class level stuff.
One of my all-time favourite films
Breaks me up every time ,so emotional to watch ,haven’t seen it in years love the film 🎥
Such a great film. The whole movie builds towards this moment, and Carpenter absolutely nails it.
The camera slowly rising, and holding on Karen Allen's beautiful face until the final fade-out is a perfect example of masterful, restrained filmmaking.
One of John Carpenter's finest moments.
Bridges should have won an Oscar for this performance.
Abraham in Amadeus was far better. So was Hulce.
Karen Allen was so pretty and had those beautiful Bambi eyes, and she was an excellent actress too! It's a shame that Hollywood usually tosses actresses aside when they get too old for most leading lady roles. I remember an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation with actress Jean Simmons, and she was amazing! Merrill Streep, Helen Mirren and Ellen Burstyn are all fantastic, but they're not the only older actresses capable of great performances. Hollywood needs to do a better job of creating roles for them.
Those eyes on Karen in the closing shot. My god…mesmerizing.
This is the only film I saw three times within a few days in the cinema. Such a wonderful story. I love this film until today!
1984...WHAT A YEAR FOR MOVIES!! 🎥 🍿😊
I think 1984 & 1982 are contenders for the best year in movies EVER!
Kiss me and tell me you love me,goodbye Jenny Hayden so emotional to watch,brilliant
Love Starman ❤❤❤❤ One of my favorite movies ❤❤❤❤
Great chemistry!
Probably one of the best scene of all time... , the powerful quotes in that movie, the meaning of them...is still timeless and true, I wish they would have made a sequel with the same actors...
"I love you" (second big kiss)
Him: "Maybe I was too hasty about leaving..."
Such a beautiful movie by a guy who was famous for scary movies. He did a fabulous job on this.
Y’all should see the series.
4:00 The sphere will tell the Starman and Jenny's son about his father, who he is and where he came from.
Damals wie heute,ein großartiger Film und die Menschheit lernt nicht dazu. 😔😔😭😭
Un film extraordinaire. Un film qui prend aux tripes. Merci M Carpenter.
Had a crush on that actress when I was little
Such a beloved film.
Замечательный фильм, наполненный искренней добротой и любовью! Как жаль, что сейчас таких фильмов стало мало.
She got her husband back, only to lose him again. Such a bittersweet ending. Brought me to tears when I saw it. Also, is it just me, or does the ship look like a planet with a ring?
Not her husband. Also, she never took marital vows, so the sex was fornication and the child a bastard. It will not be able to be baptized, and will got to hell when it dies.
This was one magical movie 💙💙💙
I did not realize Karen Allen was in this movie. She's even prettier here than she was in the Indiana Jones movies.
I went to the Meteor Crater years ago and it’s amazing there.
It's amazing how close the meteor came to hitting the Visitor's Center.
I went there last month!😍
@@142horizon amazing,huh?
Great John Carpenter movie and my favorite Jeff Bridges movie! Funny it just dawn on me how long I've watched The Bridges! From Sea Hunt his Father Lloyd Bridges and both boys appeared on that series too! CMTFU! I'll watch it anytime it's on TV! Even though it's all cut up with commercials!
I loved this movie
One of my favorites
Dr Jones: Marion, what have you done?
One of my all-time favorite movies! A sci-fi classic! Allen & Bridges so believable. Breakout role for Charles Martin Smith!
Beautiful film.
Loved this movie when I was a kid. Wanted to go to Arizona just to see that crater.
There was a short-lived TV show of the same name starring Robert Hays of 'Airplane!' fame a couple years later. He returns to Earth to find the mother of his child. 22 episodes.
I loved the TV show also! Robert Hays was so sensitive in his portrayal of Starman.
Karen Allen.. Damn
The last scene is amazing
Goodbye, Jenny Hayden. The baby will know.
The music,,,, WOW.
Haven’t seen this movie since it came out when I was a teen but always remembered it was a good one. Time to see it again I think.
Beautiful
I have such a hard time watching g thus part because of how emotional it is. It really get to U.
Classic film
I forgot how much I enjoyed this movie. Doesn't get enough air time.
Army: What did the alien say before he left?
Jenny: He said that if you touch me he will come back and destroy you.
Still one of the best endings i ever see!
Yu Law The one
The military could mess up a bowl of cereal if you let them.
Love. This. Film and. Ending. Music. Goose. Bumps
I love Carpenter as much as the next person, but Jack Nitzsche did this soundtrack.
Funny how he says… I love yoooooo😂😂
Great movie!!
This scene always gets me 😔
Tears ❤❤😢😢😢😢😮
Unlike many modern movies, this one would have been perfect for a sequel.
There was, sort of. There was a TV series that was set 15 years later with the baby now a teen. It didn't last long.
Great movie! Perfect actors! Wonderful story line. ❤❤❤
I'll have to pull this out of my movie library and watch tomorrow. My son would say...boring...no special effects, but this was absolutely great in it's day and still continues today 2024. I've always enjoyed watching...send my son to the movie theater with his friends. 🙂
*TIMELESS. INSTANT. CLASSIC!*
It's so sad that she lost two loves in a short amount of time.
What an incredible film, why we've never had a follow up beats me. There could have been a follow up film based around the birth of Jenny,'s child.
One of the best sci fi movies I've ever seen. They don't make em like this anymore.
I'm really not built close to the water but that ending scene along with the music always leaves me in tears.
For the longest time I thought she was Margot Kidder. Doesn't matter... Karen Allen was fantastic, as was the movie.
my favorite lines from this movie: "I make maps." and "Red light, stop. Green light, go. Yellow light, go... very fast." and "That's Dutch Apple Pie. It's terriFIC!. *okay finger gesture*" 😄
I watched you very carefully. 🤣🤣
@@mattnewmark7607"As much as I hate to stoop to symbolism." _blows cigar smoke in his face_ 😄 /watch?v=K7h5AcXejWI
The moment we all wish we had. To say goodbye.
Such a good movie.
Vi esa movie 🎬 🎞 🎥 cuando era una niña pequeñita y me hizo llorar el final.❤❤
Beautiful movie
"Take me with you."
"You will die there."
"I don't think I care."
"I care..."
Aww
Google Karen Allen today. At 72 years of age, this woman is still an absolute doll. I for one, would be thrilled to be in her company.
I saw this great movie when released in 1984 and I have added the DVD to my personal collection.
The meteor crater site is real (i.e., not a C.G.I. or Hollywood set piece) and located by Winslow, AZ off of I-40. I've been there twice (once with the wife and then years later with our kids). It's kind of like visiting the Grand Canyon. Awesome to behold, but after you see it, what else do you do? If they would build a 'zip-line' above the one-mile wide diameter of the crater that would justify a 3rd visit. And, make it a bigger tourist attraction + more profitable to sustain its operation.
While in the Winslow, AZ vicinity, take a detour to a famous corner mentioned in The Eagles hit song 'Take It Easy' which is also a tourist attraction.
