There was a deleted scene at the end that shows what he sees inside the mother ship. He enters a round chamber with lights all around it illuminating the chamber. They all turn upwards, then the ceiling of the chamber starts rising and reveals the enormity of the inside of the ship. He sees so many windows all full of beings looking down upon him, which overwhelms him with joy. Then he sees in the center of this enormous ship is a docking system for the smaller ships with four massive arms that connect to the disc that was the ceiling of the chamber that rose up. All the small ships dock inside the structure, then activate their engines giving off a shower of light that lights up the whole inside of the ship. Then the last being outside returns the hand gestures and smile to Lacombe, and they close up and leave. The expression “every Christian soul” was used to mean that he wanted something so scary that anyone in their right mind, sensible people, would be scared away. If they’re not in their right mind, and don’t get scared away, chances are nobody would believe what they say anyway. Great reaction!

The WW2-type planes in the film were based on Flight 19, the designation for a group of five TBM Avenger torpedo bombers that disappeared over the Bermuda Triangle on December 5, 1945 after losing contact during a US Navy overwater navigation training flight. All 14 Navy pilots on the flight disappeared without conclusive evidence as to what had happened to them. Over the decades, there have been all kinds of rumors about UFOs, etc. being to blame. The war was already over and it's hard for people to accept that all the planes just disappeared at the same time. - By the way, the French guy was played by the world famous film director François Truffaut.

You'd swear it was in Roswell, New Mexico, not Wyoming. Anyway, there's a trail around the entire circumference of the tower. The whole loop is less than a mile and a half. I walked it twice.

The WWII fighter planes, historically, were a training squadron that set off from Florida and went missing over the ocean.

Yes, that's what I heard... Bizarre stuff! (:

The planes at the beginning were flight 19, a group of 5 TBM Avengers which disappeared without a trace on December 5 1945 over the Bermuda Triangle, subsequently adding much to the lore as no trace was ever found and with a navy Catalina sent out to find them also vanishing.

Fun Fact the star, Richard Dryfus is the grandson of the French officer Theodore Dryfus that was wrongly sent to Jail and though movies have been made he never played his grandfather despite the fact he looks like him. Another Actor that I think should have played a relative when he was younger is Tom Hanks, who like myself is a generational cousin of Abe Lincoln. Lincoln's mom was a Hanks and hers a Mooney. I have Mooney blood on my maternal line.

........I loved your reactions to the "mother ship" --- one of you admitted you'd be "freaked out" and the other wouldn't be. I think that's what it boils down to - some of us would be afraid and others, amazed....I think I'd be more amazed than afraid - since I believe we're not alone in the universe.

The little boy wasn't actually acting. All his reactions are real. When he is looking excitedly at the sky and says "toys!" Spielberg was standing on a ladder with what he told the boy was a surprise. Then he pulled out some toys and the boy reacted earnestly. The scene where he encounters the aliens in the kitchen and does the fascinated stare, Spielberg had two of the crew dress up in monkey suits which first made the boy a little scared and then one of the men took off his mask and the boy recognized the man and smiled. That's how Spielberg got his reputation as being great with child actors. There's a documentary about the making of Close Encounters where they go into all this.

Little trivia: at 7:26 you see the kid first expressing fright and the all if a sudden relief with a smile. The actor Cary Guffey told much later how Spielberg achieved all these wanted reactions mostly in the first take. In this case there was one of the stuntmen dressed up as a gorilla and then he removed his head mask and the kid recognized his friend he was familiar with on the set. Toby Neary (Roy Neary‘s son) was actually played by Justin Dreyfuss, Richard‘s nephew. When the kid called „toys“ at 20:10, he reacted to Spielberg standing on a ladder, grabbing a box and unwrapping a toy…🤭👍. Genius conductor! He made it easy for kids to simply react instead of acting… At 22:14 when the boy crawled through the cat door he was pulled by his own real mother from the other side. On the DVD version you could see her forearm for the fraction of a second…. 🫢 44:20 When the kid started to cry and say „good bye“ he was told by Steven that he won‘t see his friends from the film crew anymore, because they were done…

The "close encounter" scale was invented by astronomer and UFO researcher J. Allen Hynek. The classes range from CE1-CE5, with 4 and 5 being added after Hynek's death. CE1 is when one sees a defined, detailed object at an estimated distance of less than 500 feet. CE2 is when the object has interacted in some way with the physical environment around it. CE3 is when the observer sees one or more animate occupant in or from the object. This could also be interaction between the observer and the occupant. In CE4, the occupant or occupants abduct the observer, such as, for example, in the Barney and Betty Hill incident in the 1960s or the case of Whitley Strieber in the 1980s. And CE5 represents human attempts to initiate interaction with UFO/UAP occupants. Seeing lights in the sky or even indistinct objects doesn't even make the CE scale, though it is still of interest.

Big Spielberg fan, and this is one of my favorite movies. 32:56 My favorite line from the film 😂 Close encounter of the first kind: Visual sightings of an unidentified flying object, seemingly less than 500 feet (150 m) away, that show an appreciable angular extension and considerable detail. Second kind: A UFO event in which a physical effect is alleged; this can be interference in the functioning of a vehicle or electronic device, animals reacting, a physiological effect such as paralysis or heat and discomfort in the witness, or some physical trace like impressions in the ground, scorched or otherwise affected vegetation, or a chemical trace. Third kind: UFO encounters in which an animated entity is present-these include humanoids, robots, and humans who seem to be occupants or pilots of a UFO. There's no fourth kind. Source: Wikipedia. The planes at the beginning of the film are from flight 19, a group of five Navy planes that disappeared off the coast of Florida in December 1945. The ship that showed up in the desert (you didn't show) was the SS Cotopaxi, a steam ship that disappeared during a storm during a trip from Charleston to Havana in December of 1925. It's wreckage was discovered in the 1980s, but wasn't identified as the Cotopaxi until 2020. Another great Spielberg movie you should watch, if you haven't already, is E.T. (1982)

...really interesting movie, by now almost 50 years old... there are a lot of posts and channels talking about the subject of encounters on youtube these days - some feel fishy, others not so, in my opinion... here just one example for the hard-core critics: Paul Hellyer, the former Canadian defense minister, has spoken about UFOs. In 2005, he told an audience at an exopolitics conference in Toronto that he had seen a UFO with his wife and friends. In 2014, he told RT (formerly Russia Today) that at least four alien species have been visiting Earth for thousands of years, with most coming from other star systems. He also said that some aliens live on Venus, Mars, and (a) Saturn's moon. - This text is of Wikipedia, but I also saw a clip where he speaks to an audience about this.
