I am not sure why but I just never watched Close Encounters. It came out before I was born and it's so classic I think I just assumed I knew what it was already. Boy was I wrong.
It seems extremely clear to me that watching this movie with 50 years of research and new info between us and the release that this movie was a way of getting the reality of what is going on into the collective consciousness so we could start to integrate these ideas for when the time for full disclosure comes. (If it ever does)
The number of details in the movie that comport with data collected over the last 50 years is too much to be coincidence. Someone gave Spielberg this information so he could get it out into the public psyche.
I only watched it once and I only paused once or twice to look at details but there are so many little nods to what is going on in there that it cannot be coincidence.
For example at one point you see a council of people overseeing a small conference of scientists and government agents getting each other up to speed on what's been going on. I knew immediately how many people would be in that council and sure enough I went back and paused it and there were 12 people in matching suits watching from what was clearly a position of authority. Seems like a nod to the MJ12 to me.
There are also a ton of small details that do nothing to serve the movie from a science fiction standpoint. For example every time we see the 3 alien ships they are followed by a red orb. This orb is never acknowledged or mentioned in the movie but it's clearly an important detail as it's always present. They also seem to hide a lot of small details in the business of various scenes. One that everyone is familiar with are the lockheed boxes that can be seen briefly in one scene. Another one I caught was that at the facility at the top of the mountain at one point you hear the guy on the loudspeaker mention that the craft may have a gravity bubble around it. It goes by quick and isn't referenced at all after that, but it's clear whoever gave Spielberg his info was tuned in.
Another detail that blew me away was when the beings first exit from the ship and a mantid style being first appears. Then the small, drone like grays come out and then finally the E.T style gray we're all familiar with. This matches so many contactee experiences where there seem to be different types of beings with different roles.
There's also the space force with the clear Illuminati symbolism who seem to be engaging in some sort of exchange program with the beings. In a quick shot we see them getting blessed by a priest before their journey which aligns with the reports that there is a big religious faction inside the government who think this phenomenon is spiritual or religious in nature.
Finally, the part that sent shivers down my spine was right at the end when Richard Dryfuss is peering into the ship and the French scientists asks him what he wants. Dryfuss responds "I just want to know that this is really happening" to which Lacombe looks him in the eye and matter of factly responds "This is happening". To me this was the mask off moment. In that moment Dryfuss represents the every man and this is the writer's way of looking the public dead in the eye and saying you better get used to this because THIS is the reality that is already taking place.
Anyways, what a movie. If you haven't seen it you must. It's just so well made.
