Spielberg begun his friendly alien ideal with this movie from the late seventies. Roy Neary is a line worker who has a brief but memorable encounter with a UFO in his small town. He is left plagued by visions of an object he cannot decipher and suffers domestic problems as he behaves more and more kooky.
But he is not the only one affected and the impact of the visitors has been far more wide reaching than he could ever realise.
