It's YOU\xa0EFF\xa0OHHHHHHH\xa0MONTH! (For the sake of brevity, we'll call it U-F-OHHHHH\xa0for the rest of the month.)

For Movie #1, it's the Godfather of all alien contact movies. It's Steven\xa0Spielberg's\xa0follow-up to 1975's JAWS: CLOSE\xa0ENCOUNTERS\xa0OF THE THIRD KIND.

FROM IMDB: Roy Neary, an Indiana electric lineman, finds his quiet and ordinary daily life turned upside down after a close encounter with a UFO, spurring him to an obsessed cross-country quest for answers as a momentous event approaches.\xa0
