The sci fi classic about ordinary people witnessing UFOs soaring through the skies of the midwest, stands the test of time as one of the most breath-taking films of all time. richard dreyfuss is a worker who encounters one of the craft, and begins to have visions of a mountain-like shape. He is compelled to try to find the extra terrestrials. Against the wishes of his wife….and the government. Close encounters’ spectacular special effects of glowing spacecraft and mysterious clouds remain some of the most beautiful images ever put to film.

nick roeg’s stylized and elegant ghost story is still one of the scariest movies ever made. donald sutherland and julie christie star as a couple who move to Venice, italy after the accidental drowning of their child. Sutherland begins to catch glimpses of an apparition of the dead girl in the mysterious alleys and tunnels of the city and he tries to catch the spirit. moody, hallucinatory cinematography of the spooky streets of venice, combined with roeg’s adventurous direction and editing, make this an indisputable classic.
