CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Lacombe (François Truffaut) makes direct -- and friendly -- contact with one of the aliens.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Steven Spielberg followed Jaws (1975), his first major box-office success, with this epic science fiction adventure about a disparate group of people who attempt to contact alien intelligence. Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) is an electrical lineman who, while sent out on emergency repairs, witnesses an unidentified flying object, and even has a "sunburn" from its bright lights to prove it. Neary's wife and children are at first skeptical, then concerned, and eventually fearful, as Roy refuses to accept a "logical" explanation for what he saw and is prepared to give up his job, his home, and his family to pursue the "truth" about UFOs. Neary's obsession eventually puts him in contact with others who've had close encounters with alien spacecraft, including Jillian (Melinda Dillon), a single mother whose son disappeared during her UFO experience, and Claude Lacombe (celebrated French filmmaker François Truffaut), a French researcher who believes that we can use a musical language to communicate with alien visitors. Lacombe's theory is put to the test when a band of government researchers and underground UFO enthusiasts (including Neary) join for an exchange with alien visitors near Devil's Tower, Wyoming. In 1980, a "Special Edition" was released. While its primary selling point was the addition of scenes inside the alien spaceship, Spielberg claimed that he also cleaned up some choppy editing in the second act.

The alien showing the same amount of wonder in his facial expression as if this is the first time they've encountered another intelligent species make this scene extremely impactful.
Um...humans are intelligent? We don't use zero-point energy. We are polluting the air we breathe with our cars. In America obesity is on the rise. 50% of Americans will be diabetic by age 50.

@@angelinarobert622 Yes, humans are intelligent. Even you. Even though you clearly don’t understand the definition of intelligence. all intelligence is, is the ability to gain and use knowledge.. Humans have clearly done that multiple times, all you’re doing is giving examples of misuse of said intelligence.
@@angelinarobert622 "zero point energy" lolllll
@@angelinarobert622 they meant intelligence as in we have art, science, infrastructure, culture, etc
@@angelinarobert622 I bet you are a vegan living on the big city.
Life is hard for the rest of us. This is why you are a bourgeois and we are the working class.
0:27 That exact moment the alien raises his hand. That is the entire movie’s purpose, it is the reason that they are all there. A brief, single intimate moment when two races of beings separated by light years and eons share a simple, gesture-led acknowledgement of eachother. That’s all you get. That’s all anyone could ask for.
This is one of the most important films of our time, an ideal of vision what could happen. Someday..not sure when...humanity will discover other beings in this universe.
Someone would just film him with his smartphone
what a surprise, if the alien had raised his hand and said, " EIN DEUTSCHES VOLK, EIN DEUTSCHES REICH!"
Alien: ◄:•D✋
But if that's all the communication they have then who arranged the exchange program
This is a copy and paste coment because ive read it 2 years ago.
1:39 "Good Bye" I'm glad they gave the last line of the movie to the kid. That was sweet.
Yea... They don't make movies like that no more.
The innocence of a child to top off the wholesome moment of two species acknowledging each other with a friendly gesture.
He says BYE...
I like how the alien is animatronic, not CGI, even though it's made of gears and padding, it makes it seem more real.
greg The fact that it's a puppet and it's not CGI means of course that it physically exists right there on the set. Animatronics and puppetry gives the film a physical heft which CGI just doesn't achieve.
greg Did you know that they had originally intended to use a CGI for the alien in this scene? It didn't look good (it wouldn't be until Tron was released that CGI would really hit off) so they opted with an animatronic.
I thought maybe the alien was animated using stop motion. I didn't realise it was an animatronic puppet.
Yes which is something I respect and love in movies back in the day that we don't get nowadays most of time it's CGI and visual effects.
ruclips.net/video/DiQnCsDvDT8/видео.html
The only person who could acheive these effects at the time. Things have changed a lot since then.
Films still use animatronics alongside CGI.
There's something indescribably emotional about this scene...
I know. I just watched it and I just had to watch it agin. It shows humanity's kindness and peacefulness. I also kinda feel bad for Roy because everyone saw him as a crazy person and his wife left him and it brought tears to my eyes when Barry was reunited with his mother.
When Barry said bye I just couldn't get that scene out of my head. It also makes me sad that most of these actors are elderly or dead.
Yeah! That emotion is terror!
That's PUCK!! That's what Steven called the Alien. And he operated the smile action during the take.
You're a real glass half empty kind of guy.
If this happened today, the poor bastard would be swiss cheese before he could raise his hand to wave.
Nah, he's white so he'll be alright.
+pedalpowered1 Cold as strawberry ice cream.
Nope. If this happened today, the government would deny it happened as the whole world was watching.
Hahahahaaaa..... So true mate!
No he wouldn’t. Stop shoving your garbage Faith in humanity onto the rest of us
With all the CGI and all the alien movies made since then, this to me is still the best. This alien looks real, has emotion. And the effects totally hold up.
Larry Lee Moniz
I love this movie but the 1080p and 4k versions ruin the mistique of the movie. We were never meant to view this in ultra high def. You can easily notice how fake the aliens are and the alien that's doing the alien sign language has a noticable ripple in the arm(costume malfunction?).
Yea especially w the fast realistic blinking too! Loved that
100%
I think especially in the scenes with low light or the parts where the aliens are just a silouette with bright lights behind them, these special effects work even better than modern cgi. When the little aliens come out of the spaceship and select Roy, this scene seems very real... even though almost 50 year old effects. It may have been better if this movie never showed the aliens in clear lighting. Should have been left obscured. The only scene that doesn't hold up is the alien who does the hand signs. Too rubbery looking
@@seasquawker I agree with everthing u said except for the hand signal Alien. It's real and remarkable.
You know why this is the greatest alien movie of all time. These aliens are peaceful and intelligent. In every other space movie the aliens are warring and barbaric. We need new movies with this theme.
What a lot of people don't remember is that this was the VERY FIRST movie to present aliens as peaceful. At the time this was a HUGE statement.
Watch Arrival
The God-Emperor of Mankind does not approve.
@@roquefortfiles I love this part of the film and this scene in particular, no matter the difference or space that seperates us, two intelligent species from across the void come together in peace and curiosity, I love that after the hand signals, the alien and the humans are staring at each other in awe and silence, fascinated and mezmerised by each other and that each other simply are there. That was what Speilberg was trying to say and he added that theme to the later E.T and Taken (2002). The superb and inspiring Contact (1997) also shared this idea
@@shawntipton7398 Steven knows how to put a "Moment" on film. I love the way "Puck" kind of tilts his head the way a dog wonders at someone. Classic scene.
Those aliens were such trolls, turning lights on and off, messing with children's toys, turning off car engines. Not to mention ruining families and abducting sailors and children
Did you not understand the movie? They didn't abduct those people. They were various people who were lost throughout history who the aliens saw and, um, gave them a ride.
nah they did abduct people, that is obvious
that was 41 years ago
@@LetThereBeLoud maybe they where lonely and needed company: as all the aliens tired of each other after long time being there.
Mulberry2000 Due to the fact the people in the mothership didn’t age, I don’t think these Aliens have the same concept of time as we do.
That alien smile melted my heart.
i love that the alien fucking smiles
This scene of the movie always makes me cry. That alien smile is so precious.
It’s wonderful. As if this is also their first time finding other intelligent life and they are just as excited and amazed about it as we are.
To quote Carl Sagan. “Life, looks for life”
The ET's ship looks like a flying Tokyo.
Literally the best comment I've read ever XD
You have good taste.
It is Tokyo from 2,351,927 AD. These aren't aliens, they're future Japanese.
i thought it looked like a Christmas tree
how beautiful!
I get a little emotional when I see the alien imitate the guys hand gestures.
I still find the whole film emotional. But, yeah, the alien is SO beautiful, SO knowing, SO kind. 35 years on & it doesn't look stupid. He still looks beautiful.
And when that music swells. Gosh. Gets me every time.
its emotional to me cause that may not be our life time but thats definitely our future
The aliens initiated our learning the hand gestures; the guy was actually imitating the alien.
Are you kidding me? When I was little and saw that alien I just about shit my pants, that thing gave me nightmares. I still have a fear of aliens just not as bad as it used to be.
I feel it man. When I saw mel gibsons "signs"
I wasn't the same lol
Truffaut is not only a good director but also a good actor.
What a talented man.
Wow, I didn't even realize that was Truffaut. Amazing.
Seeing this in 70 mm in a huge theater in 1977 was quite an experience. This scene was incredibly moving. Quite a moment
I am going to see this movie tonight in theaters. It is showing at an arthouse theater in my town
@@marissab6461 It is a wonderful film. Magical. The UFO's are so original when they come roaring around the bend. On a big screen? Shivers!!. You see them but you don't really see them which makes them very intriguing. I hope you're not seeing the "Special Edition" Not a fan of it. The interior of the ship should forever remain a mystery. The end scene where "Puck" comes out bids farewell with John Williams music soaring. Its emotional. One of my all time fav films. Hope you enjoy.
@@roquefortfiles Thank you for sharing. I am very excited because they hardly show old movies in theater
@@marissab6461 So? How was it? They should run it in IMAX i just saw Jaws in Sept in Imax and it was amazing. CE3K would be stunning.
@@roquefortfiles It was really good, I forgot how funny it was. Also, the loudest movie I’ve seen in a theater. The rumbles were very cool.
The Alien looking just as amazed as us about finding other intelligent life is a wonderful little addition.
Giving a nod to just how rare and precious intelligent life is.
The implication that a species millions of years ahead of us, *still* hasn’t encountered other intelligent life until finding us is really quite profound.
And I love that they look just as happy and curious about us, as we are about them.
To quote Carl Sagan
“Life, looks for life”
RIP François Truffaut. You will be remembered.
No he won’t.
@@druidboy76 Yes he will
Your a bit late....
@@LeGabrielCantal for what?
@@philipkempbell7174 because he was a great director and actor
Absolutely incredible score by John Williams!
I had no idea that John Williams scored this movie. I thought it sounded familiar
Sen Cren Gaming yeah he does a lot of Spielberg films
@@genericjohn972 the same year he made the score for Star Wars: A New Hope no less!
This bit gets me every time.
Over 40yrs on & he's still so beautiful, intelligent & all-knowing. When he raises his hand to communicate & the music swells, I still get tears.
They were so peaceful and curious
0:27-0:34, it does sign language and smiled.
that's so cute!
That isn’t sign language, it’s just a hand being raised
@@popflicktionedits3256 awe, just saying hello
@@popflicktionedits3256 You're both wrong. They're Curwen hand symbols. Basically music in a visual form.
Something really cool about the mothership is the lighting on the dome. Steven Spielberg said in an interview that the lights on the dome were from pictures he took of the San Fernando Valley at night when the city lights were on. I always thought that was really cool.
This moment is pure cinema magic. Between John Williams' score, Truffaut's enthusiasm,Douglas Trumbull's FX and Spielberg's direction this scene comes together masterfully.
Let us not forget Industrial Light and Magic and Skywalker Sound.
I think what I love the most about this movie is how the aliens are every bit as thrilled and overjoyed by humanity's existence as the humans are by theirs.
Seeing that alien smile always brings a smile to my face and a tear to my eye.
I love how they communicate with music.
This scene really sums up the beauty of the whole film: We are not alone in this vast universe. This film establishes that wonderful sense of first contact between our human race and visitors from outer space. It's understandable how there needed to be top secret handling and control of the situation. These are trained military men and scientists. Such a first meeting would call for such measures. Imagine a scenario, to a general population of common citizens. 1) the aliens come in peace and friendship, but there's some crazy nutcase in the crowd who thinks they're a threat and attacks them, which results in starting a war with otherworldly forces. 2) the aliens are indeed hostile and will attack on sight, hence the military would be able to more potentially handle such a crisis with the proper defence. All in all, it's impertinent that a controlled situation be called for in matters of first contact with alien life. Fortunately, here we can understand appreciate the beauty that Spielberg portrays, after all that's happened: mysterious lights, child abductions (even though the little boy Barry went of his own free will and choice), and other paranormal activity that we don't have answers for, and that fear of the unknown which can make us go crazy or paranoid, but in the end, we discover that these aliens are a peaceful people, and they have reached an understanding with us. It would make sense for them to reach out to scientists and other such people who are open-minded. It makes sense that they do not share anything of technological advancement, until we, as a people, have overcome our own primitive instincts which include violence and warring on each other. But until that time comes, the aliens here have made themselves known to the scientists, and Lacombe leads them with a charismatic smile in his exchange with the little alien, who smiles back. We are not alone...
I'm 100% certain "Close Encounters" and "E.T." take place in the same continuity universe. Both films have the same director, the same composer, and the same creature designer. "Puck" must be one of E.T.'s intergalactic cousins.
tvmattkc definitely! I actually saw a theory video on that. Also ET collected plants, and Puck collected humans!
In "The Phantom Menace", it has a scene that 3 aliens of Et's race appears.
So, maybe Et takes place in the same universe as Star Wars
PS: Sorry for my bad english! I am Brazilian 😬😅
@@DunderMifflin05 Maybe. Except there are Star Wars toys in Elliott's room (indicating that Star Wars is fictional in the world of E.T.).
Yes, but 5 years arfter
Same
The UFO is a city! Just realized it
Indeed. In the novelization, the Mothership is supposed to be over two miles in circumference. Although you can tell the movie version is slightly smaller. Probably around 500 meters at its widest point.
Its design is based on a stell plant in India which Spielberg laid eyes on while shooting the "India scene" of this same movie. Owned by Tata Steel, Indian conglomerate. The dome below is basically the lighting of the whole San Fernando valley of which Spielberg took multiple shots.
It's a city???? What??? How did you find that?
indeed, is more like something precious.
@@marcesakurita Look closely you can see what looks to be skyscrapers.
The power of the Spielberg/Williams combination. One of the greatest films of all time. True Hollywood escapism.
That smile at 0:30 on both alien and people's faces cracks me up every time
To this day, one of the best science fiction movies! Beautifully made, great writing, directing and acting, fantastic score.
The shot of the alien looking at them with the light and shadow. The lighting there is perfect. The score rising there, that's one of the most beautiful shots in the history of cinema.
This looks like this alien they just showed in the Mexican UFO hearings.
I remember this when my mom took me to see this in 1977 I was 7 years old, wow how time flies.
did you go see Star Wars that year as well?
Yes I had the figure toys also..
michael williams. Me too. I was in awe and its still one of my favorites
michael williams You grew up while all these classics were out in the cinema. That's awesome. And something to be real grateful for.
Michael W
Yep 1977. Scared me to death, the aliens. But one of the greatest movies ever made.
They knew something back then ... Something we're learning about today.
They are here. Get ready ...
Exactly. This movie was soft disclosure. 👽
The most emotional scene in a movie I've ever witnessed. Along with the musical score and the alien's smile, the way it looks at the earth people before stepping back on board. But I found myself wondering what happened to all the other people who exited the mothership. Its a shame there couldn't be a sequel featuring Roy Neary's return to Earth. However, there would have to be a different actor playing him as he wouldn't have aged.....
Theres actually a story similar to this if your interested you can research Project Serpo ita basically what happened , its probably one of the best stories you'll ever hear
Ben Cart Wright i know that
My God, Steven Spielberg. What a phenomenal film.
Always makes me well-up. SO emotional.
And 40yrs on, this little fella is still so beautiful, so knowing, so intelligent, so gentle. Expect me, the most moving scene in cinema history. Wonderful.
Pure movie magic. Truffaut's expression,the Doglas Trumbull FX and John Williams score.
Fun fact: A young Lance Henrikson (Bishop from Aliens) can be seen at 0:58 in one of his very first roles. Didn’t really have any lines just was a security guy for the French scientist.
I don't know why this scene makes me so emotional every time ;)
John Williams amazing score that's why🎼🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Me too! I just thought the same thing.
H.P. Finkelmeister Agreed. Totally totally agreed. His score is incredible. The cinematography, the beautiful animatronics and special effects and John Williams score. Breathtaking.
Stephen Ogley on talk show Steven Spielberg said that John Williams directed this scene by applying the music that he did
indeed, brilliant Score!!!
Absolutely love this movie. Just went to Devils Tower in Wyoming two weeks ago and couldn't stop singing their little jingle! Great work on such a touching story.
I only first saw this movie today, and it was on one of those sketchy websites where you can watch it free. The most compelling scene for me was the wide shot from the alien's POV. It made me tear up and sat with me so much that I decided I needed to see the clip again. The simplicity in it is beautiful and endlessly charming. And sweet.
The alien is thinking... They're nice but uuuugly!
this alien looks innocent but earlier in the film they terrified berrys mom to Death by trying to kidnap her kid..don't be fooled by these little guys..
I used to see the friendly turn of the aliens in the film as a dramaturgical incoherence, a cop-out by nothing justified. Now I give credit to Spielberg for retaining that extremely problematic ambiguity at the center of the ufo lore, which his film is a rather remarkable summation of.
@@offbeat65 The movie definitely had its flaws but the sense of awe it gave you made up for that.
@@victorbonilla4634 don't just say it had flaws...
Point them out for me 😅
@@Bvetrayed Well, these aliens are coming in peace and yet they kidnap a little kid..big flaw there.
I mean to them it probably wasn't kidnapping
And now Mexico confirmed they look like this
As a French, I say it out loud:
RIP François Truffaut
0:39 the most iconic scene of the 70s science fiction movies
John Williams is absolutely ON FIRE in this scene. The score in this scene is nothing short of amazing. He captures a profoundly deep emotional feeling. It feels like something immensely important in human history. But wondrous and very moving.
Will they ever make movies like this again? Is it even possible to make movies like this again?
Saleem Frazer That movie did get a lot of good reviews and even got nominated for best picture, but I was one of the few people who didn't like it. I thought it tried too hard to shove its message down the viewers throat. I just couldn't get into it, though it was much better than its follow-up "Chappie". Now that was awful.
Saleem Frazer I liked Elysium a lot actually. I think reviews were mixed on it, but I thought it was a good story.
Saleem Frazer Have you worked in films at all?
Saleem Frazer I'm shopping a script around and trying to see what options are out there. I just got turned down by Amazon, which I'm a little bummed about.
Saleem Frazer I hope so, its just I'm not a known writer, so its an uphill climb to say the least. Fortunately, I do have some friends in the "biz" so we'll see if they can do something for me.
It's so adorable, I just want to give it a hug and keep it
Dude the alien is so cute when it smiles. c: aaaaaaw!
this may just be me and my fear of aliens, but when i first watched this movie i refused to look at the screen because of how scared i was. i still am so i scrolled through the comments trying not to see it haha
I bet the other aliens are like “ Melvin! What are you doing? Stop mingling with the humans and get on board!”
"And stop playing with your Space Modulator!"
I can't believe this came out in 1977. This movie is way ahead of its time.
I hope real aliens would be like that.
Random Rock so you hope they will kidnap children, destroy families, cause people to die and then just let people go after decades have passed with just so much as a wave?
0:31 Dear god the alien's smile is warming asf.
Gawd I wish real aliens had this desire to make contact with us.
that alien is so cute:)
They are not aliens, they are time travlers. That's why they look so alike to us, because they are. "Evolution, baby." - Paul
The score was composed, conducted and produced by John Williams, who had previously won an Academy Award for his work on Spielberg's Jaws. Much like his two-note Jaws theme, the "five-tone" motif for Close Encounters has since become ingrained in popular culture (the five tones are used by scientists to communicate with the visiting spaceship as a mathematical language as well as being incorporated into the film's signature theme). The score was recorded at Warner Bros. Scoring studios in Burbank, California
This movie match perfectly to the Mexico ufo reveals
This is the best Alien ANIMATRONICS I HAVE EVER SEEN, RIP Carlo Rambaldi.
When the alien smiled it almost seems like it's their first time seeing other life just like earth is seeing other life for the first time
Best moment in cinematic history.
Is it wrong that the smile on the Alien's face scared me as a child?
the guy with the beard smiling scared me more as an adult.
+respt46 Bob Balaban? From Seinfeld?
Danny wolf. LOL! the alien was given the name Puck and is based on the little boy Barry in the film
Its possibly a dip into the uncanny valley. He's mimicking human expressions, but not entirally as a human. Smiling is a human expression, and with some animals. Any other life forms smiling is baring the teeth, and a threat.
The score of this scene makes me appreciate how rare the earth and humans are. We have to care for and protect this planet.
Fantastic scene. And it still gets me choked up even after seeing it, as a little kid, in the theater 44 years ago.
Probably the most aww inspiring film I've ever seen and I'm only 32 years old. This btw was based on the hollaman Airforce base incident which truly happened.
32 ain't that young, bud. But I agree, inspiring.
James Kaleb Wolfe Nothing wrong with that. You are quite young. Wouldn't matter what age you are, there's no "wrong" age to feel inspired/touched.
Good grief, I wish I was 32 again. I could conquer the Universe!
No it didn't.
I'm 25, and this is my all time favourite movie. I love many movies from different genres, different eras. But this film is my N0.1 always will be. And since being a young kid, I've always wanted to experience this movie in the cinema. I finally got my wish when it was the film's 40th anniversary. It was great seeing parents taking their kids to see this in cinema as well and enjoying the film. A day I'll never forget.
We need more friendly aliens
Beautiful music, beautiful movie.
Oh! So they can invent advanced space crafts but not clothes!?
loved this film another Spielberg classic this is a good scene were the extraterrestrial being appears from the UFO and all the missing people also appear that were abducted
The movie is absolutly beautiful
I've already been to the Devil's Tower twice and I wouldn't mind going a third time
The alien smile warms my heart 😊💗
0:58..........That's Lance Henriksen!
Yeah you are right that's Bishop from Aliens.
@@jasongradyphstiger6179 can't be him. he didn't get gored by this sweet looking, kidnapping alien, like he has in those other movies🤣
@@ultrakool yeah but it is him and he voice Admiral Hackett from the Mass Effect games.
0:11 look..it's mike pence..
a classic that will never be forgotten this film revolutionized cinema in many ways, A story that holds you in front of television.
I still love this movie. From the first time I watched it on ONTV back in the early 80’s before cable. Still a good Sci-fi movie.
You must be this tall to declare war
When those soldiers are returned and walk out, I don't know too many WWII soldiers who have 1974 hair-cuts
Edward Bliss well they're veterans. they're not going to keep their war cuts
This makes me cry like a little girl!
"...goodbye..." 😢 1:38
Who's here after Mexican alien disclosure 2023?
AYYYYYY LMAO
Kek
Damn, this meme hits hard 5 years later.

😂😂
That is an adorable Alien👽
Every time I see a huge truck on the highway at night in the rear view mirror with all those lights I always remember this movie.
Lol that alien looks so different from all the others and it's so random that he comes out last in the movie. Imagine if he were a real Extraterrestrial hidden in plain sight lol (Just kidding). They did such a fantastic job with this movie and it's my favorite classic. AWESOME!!!
Such a peaceful scene, peaceful leader, notice the warm smile too
John Williams was absolutely on fire in this finale. The feelings. The wonder. He finds those emotions musically
Cried my eyes out
I have the album of the movie soundtrack. Some really eerie tracks but the finale is incredibly beautiful.
The alien is thinking "these simple minded beings, a simple smile is all it takes to gain their trust. We will rule this world shortly......"
😂
Saw it when I was a kid. The most incredible thing about this movie was how it compares to almost all of the other movies made about the same time and even for years afterwards.
This scene is so beautiful with the et i cry everytime i watch.I wonder how much knowledge and wisdom this being possesses.
I LOVE this film.
I loved the music at the end. There so many questions. What did Barry grow up to be? What did Barry and his mom do after this? What happened to Roy?
Well, in real life, child actor Cary Guffey (Barry) is now a California stockbroker, married with two kids. Apparently people still recognise him from Close Encounters! Bless.
A chestburster killed Roy unfortunately
0:15 ... that music ... so much emotion
music we need again in new movies... a good score makes the movie 100 times better
This is beautiful
