Close Encounters of the Third Kind was one of Spielberg's first hit movies. What you may not know is that Spielberg based the film on real UFO research conducted by the government and its famous astronomer consultant, Dr. J. Allen Hynek. Close Encounters is also not the only movie of Spielberg's inspired by real alleged UFO and alien encounters. In this lecture, Alejandro Rojas covers the incredible cases that influenced many of Spielberg's films, the rumor he was given a unique insight into UFOs by President Ronald Reagan, and his connection to a UFO presentation at the United Nations and the recent revelation that the Pentagon has a secret UFO investigation project. Spielberg, the self-proclaimed Ufologist, knows much more about UFOs and aliens than he lets the public know.
