M83 meets CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND

An edit of the finale of Close Encounters Of The Third Kind (1977) as soundtracked by M83's "Lower Your Eyelids To Die With The Sun". This is a fanvid I've been wanting to do for a while, and I think it works.

Directed by Steven Spielberg. Stars Richard Dreyfuss, Melinda Dillon, Francois Truffaut, Bob Balaban, Cary Guffey and Lance Henriksen.

"Lower Your Eyelids To Die With The Sun" is from M83's excellent album BEFORE THE DAWN HEALS US.

Read and pray what is written in the Holy Bible the Book of Romans chapter 10 verse 9 and you will have an encounter with the "Divine" Kind.

This music really enhances the scenes. Makes it spiritual in a way.

Wish this had been used in the film.

[emanuel4]

This better than sex

[tarwood88]

this was brilliant man. well done.

[mindstormsabrewin]

@Glutymax Well.... I'll tell you what I wish for. This world coming to its' senses and putting forth the same energy and effort to FIX and HEAL everything that we have broken and poisoned. I think we need help from someone. Humanity is a baby that's somehow gotten a hold of a pistol. We are still in our infancy yet we have the idea that we are God. So we have cut our Mother Earth's vein. She's bleeding bad. Let's pray the right people can take control of this situation. LOVE must win.

@mindstormsabrewin

Thank you sir. These words have helped a bit in my journey to understand the emotions that surface when I listen to this and other songs. It is a sort of wishful thinking. That part I know. But wishful for what? My guess is to fly in the sky, with no more concerns of the flaws of humanity. But of course this is impossible. And so the journey continues...

[mindstormsabrewin]

I just discovered this song today. I am stunned. It is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard in my life! And thank you for matching it to one of the most important films ever. This kind of music and film lets us know that something bigger is at work here. The feelings that come up are not just sentimental wishful thinking. Something fundamental is reactivated inside us when exposed to this kind of art. A bigger picture is slowly coming together. You are contributing to this. Thanks.
