Close Encounters of the Third Kind, the classic 1977 Steven Spielberg (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) science fiction (sci-fi) alien UFO melodrama ("Close Encounter of the First Kind: Sighting of a UFO"; "Close Encounter of the Second Kind: Physical Evidence"; "Close Encounter of the Third Kind: Contact"; "We are not alone."; "Every 15 minutes, someone sees a UFO"; "Written and Directed by Steven Spielberg") starring Richard Dreyfuss, Teri Garr, Melinda Dillon (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Francois Truffaut (the famous French director, in an acting role; "as Lacombe"), Bob Balaban, and Cary Guffey (as the little boy). Note that Paul Schrader wrote the original screenplay for this movie, but Steven Spielberg made many changes to Schrader's script. Finally, Schrader asked that his name be taken off the screenplay, and since it had to have someone's name on it, Spielberg put his own name on the screenplay!

Condition: very good. The stills are in really nice condition. The magazine with the full color cover (which has 42 pages and has some interior color) is in "very good to fine" condition. There is a 27 page black & white supplement that is in "very good to fine" condition. There is a 12 page "news" supplement that is in "fine" condition. There is a 2 page "news" supplement and a 1 page "general photo caption" supplement which are in "very good to fine" condition. The outer folder (of which we pictured the front and back) is only in "good" condition, because it has many tears and creases down the spine and around the edges.
