The Day the Earth Stood Still
1951 • Introduction by Author/Historian Steven C. Smith • Before sci-fi was about explosions, it was about ideas — and this film still feels remarkably prescient. With its chilling robot Gort, Bernard Herrmann’s eerie theremin score, and a story that speaks to Cold War fears and human arrogance, this is intelligent, elegant science fiction. “Klaatu barada nikto,” anyone? • Show begins with music on the Mighty Wurlitzer and an old fashioned sing-along.Science FictionPT1H32M2026-02-28Michael Rennie
