Arena (1975)

Cinema: Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1978x10)

Air date: Mar 08, 1978

'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' - with UFOs - was shot last year in Hollywood on a strictly closed set. No TV cameras were allowed in to see what Steven Spielberg, the young director of Jaws, was cooking-up this time. But Arena: Cinema sneaked in on the last day of shooting to watch Spielberg at work and to talk to him about the movie which looks like being the science fiction - science fact? - sensation of 1978.
