This film is ranked #5 among all Science Fiction films, by the AFI.

If you have not seen the film, I recommend you do not continue reading this post. See the film first.

SPOILER(s)

I see that the trope of Christ arriving in a UFO/Spaceship is not my own invention, but rather a very old invention.

This is a film, that in terms of story and acting, holds its own some 50+ years later.
