“Close Encounters of the Third Kind” is back in theaters this weekend in a new, digital restoration. In anticipation of the 40th anniversary of the film’s release on November 16th, a unique screening will take place tonight at the base of Devils Tower, the national monument that plays such an important part in the Steven Spielberg classic. Watching “Close Encounters” for the first time was a watershed moment in my movie-going experience. If you’ve only seen it on TV, you have not really seen it. This is a film that definitely deserves to be experienced in a theater. Say what you will about Richard Dreyfuss’ sideburns, for me this will always be one of Spielberg’s best films, with a transcendent score by John Williams. Do yourself a favor, and check your local listings.
