Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Applause Books). "Morton has written the definitive book on this innovative movie by Steven Spielberg...Meticulous research of this caliber is not found in other books on Close Encounters . Fans will find Morton's take informative and fascinating." Library Journal . Steven Spielberg's 1977 masterpiece used all of the power and magic of cinema to tell a story of man's first meeting with extraterrestrial beings. Renouncing the fear and pessimism of the day, writer/director Spielberg boldly envisioned this as a peaceful, spiritual event full of hope and possibility. This awe-inspiring message made a powerful impact on audiences desperate for something to believe in. The film was a massive box-office hit and revolutionized the movie industry; along with Star Wars , it helped to create the modern blockbuster and ushered in a new era of hi-tech effects. Based on in-depth research and the recollections of many of the film's principal creators, Close Encounters is the first book to chronicle the making of this classic film from its inception through its tumultuous production to its many releases in "special" editions. The book features new interviews with star Teri Garr, producer Michael Phillips, photographic effects supervisor Douglas Trumbull, production designer Joe Alves, and several cinematographers, screenwriters, and special-effects legends. John Hill, Jerry Belson, Hal Barwood, and Matthew Robbins; and special effects legends Richard Yuricich, Robert Swarthe, Dennis Muren, Scott Squires, Greg Jein, and Rocco Gioffre.

Book excerpt: The reader is brought on a timeless journey together with a girl without a name - through the barren landscape of Siberia on a train, destination unknown. Exposed to situations that urge her to gradually come out of her existence as an automaton, the girl is forced to make some critical decisions even if they appear frightening and at times alien. An enigmatic fiddler at the train station, a criminal Icelandic entrepreneur and a young Philosopher in the woods - together with what turns out to be a rather mysterious meeting on the Siberian tundra, are only meetings along the girl's way to exploring herself. A series of events leads her back to the Central station where she once began her journey. As she returns she is ready to reunite with her deepest fears. In this intriguing debut, the author energetically builds a bridge between dream and reality, individual and universal perception, in a beautifully naked and rare language which combines expressive dialogue with poetry that remind us of Japanese literature and Nordic playwrights.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wildly entertaining and eye-opening biography of J. Allen Hynek, the astronomer who invented the concept of "Close Encounters" with alien life, inspired Steven Spielberg’s blockbuster classic science fiction epic film and is the subject of History Channel's Project Blue Book, and made an entire nation want to believe in UFOs. In June 1947, private pilot Kenneth Arnold looked out his cockpit window and saw a group of nine silvery crescents weaving between the peaks of the Cascade Mountains at an estimated 1,200 miles an hour. The media, the military, and the scientific community—led by J. Allen Hynek, an astronomer hired by the Air Force—debunked this and many other Unidentified Flying Object sightings reported across the country. But after years of denials, Hynek made a shocking pronouncement: UFOs are real. Thirty years after his death, Hynek’s agonizing transformation from skepticism to true believer remains one of the great misunderstood stories of science. In this definitive biography, Mark O'Connell reveals for the first time how Hynek’s work both as a celebrated astronomer and as the U. S. Air Force’s go-to UFO expert for nearly twenty years stretched the boundaries of modern science, laid the groundwork for acceptance of the possibility of UFOs, and was the basis of the hit film Close Encounters of the Third Kind. With unprecedented access to Hynek’s personal and professional files, O’Connell smashes conventional wisdom to reveal the intriguing man and scientist beneath the legend. Tracing Hynek’s career, O'Connell examines Hynek’s often-ignored work as a professional astronomer to create a complete portrait of a groundbreaking enthusiast who became an American cult icon and transformed the way we see our world and our universe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before the breakthrough of postcolonial studies, British science-fiction authors already saw the opportunity to discuss political and ethical issues of imperialism by projecting human history and behavior onto the alien 'Other.' In this thesis, the case studies of 15 novels of alien-encounter science fiction illuminate the treatment of colonial and postcolonial concepts - such as colonialism, neo-colonialism, Empire, paternalism, hybridity, mimicry and science and technology - as a means of conquest and resistance. The analysis also shows that the Empire is still a vital background for British science fiction. Thesis. (Series: Anglistik / Amerikanistik; English / American Studies - Vol. 35)

This book was released on 2021-07-04 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Close Encounters of the 7th Kind "Creepy twists and turns." "Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide." "A terrifying tale." In 1972, astronomer J. Allen Hynek proposed three types of close encounters humans can have with extraterrestrials. Over the years, other experts have extended the list to seven categories. The 1st kind: witnesses observe one or more unidentified flying objects. The 2nd kind: a UFO causes electronic interference, frightens animals, or leaves evidence. The 3rd kind: witnesses see a UFO and an animate object or being. The 4th kind: extraterrestrials abduct a human. The 5th kind: there is bilateral contact between a human and an extraterrestrial. The 6th kind: extraterrestrials cause injury or death to a human. The 7th kind: this is the most controversial encounter--and the most feared. Earl and Tess volunteered at CUFOG, Combined UFO Group, trained civilians who investigated reports of UFO sightings. While many were handled on the phone or via email, some necessitated looking at the locations where the sightings occurred. That's what brought them to the lonely countryside 50 minutes out of Missoula, Montana, where they would discover--to their horror-- their lives and the world were about to change--forever. Parts (A bonus short story) "Whoa! I loved this alien visitation story! It scared the dickens out of me, and I'll never see fog the same way again.""Goosebumpy." "Loren adds creepy to his already impressive writings. He scores again with a well-written, disturbing look at the unimaginable." "Suspenseful, eerie, ominous, and the good guys don't always win. Made me wish there was more."
