the kids’ reaction is heartbreaking.

the wife though.
what's interesting about this scene is the set up for the ending.
would you rather be abducted by aliens or live in suburban domesticity hell?

this scene, after he built the giant model of the peak and the wife calls and they're bickering and the tv is blaring with the evacuation report and HE IS NOT LOOKING AT THE DAMN TELEVISION. it’s almost as if Spielberg decided it was one long ass pun of the concept of ALIENATION.

LMAO i just reckoned the guy selling gas masks in this evacuation scene. pure Americana.

Spielberg did this also in E.T. and briliantly: showing the lengths to which the state goes to gaslight people.

what i love about this scene is the static noise in the background. this thing is so massive and has so much vibrating metal it just distort all around it.

the exploding glass is just the cherry on top of all the ambient sound designed for this scene to make it seem natural to the place and action.
seriously, the twinkle twinkle little star jam would be nothing without the ambient sounds layered under and over it.

when the people started coming out of the ship, not only did 11 year old me started crying, the whole theatre burst out clapping. we Puerto Ricans are notorious for clapping a good landing.
