Close Encounters of the Third Kind

I just finished watching Close Encounters of the Third Kind. What a beautiful, lovely, wonderful movie. I don't know how I never got around to watching it before.

At the beginning, it was like a horror movie or Ghostbusters or something and by the end it was beautiful - just like the characters felt: frightened, then at peace. I especially liked that there was no love angle and the woman and the man were working together for a common goal. Oh whatever. I'm so happy that I watched that. I was crying by the end.

Wasn't it creepy that Barry, the little kid, looked just like the aliens? I'm full of questions about that movie. It's making me think! Ack! Make it stop!

François Truffaut is so much more enjoyable as an actor than as a director. I loved that there was French scattered throughout the movie. It made a good movie even better. "Before I got paid to speak French, I used to read maps."

What's the matter with me? I'm all mushy.
