    My gosh, this movie score, it still gets me after all these years. One of the most perfect endings of a movie I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen a lot. Then, you have Carpenter choosing to end with Karen Allen’s face with her eyes focused just watching the ship leave, pure perfection and that music…….that damn music.

      Many greats have missed awards even though deserved. Joan Osborne had a fantastic new album in the 1990s and had several Grammy nominations. I was rooting for her. But that was when Alanis Morissette debuted who appealed to a younger crowd and she swept all of the awards. Joan deserved several but did not get any. :-(

    A sci-fi masterpiece. Absolutely beautiful. Timeless. Awesome. The ending with the camera only on her is a metaphor for her rebirth. She was dead inside until Starman came along and now he gave her a new life. Notice the light behind her. It's like she's emerging. So awesome.

      It had a lot of competition in 1984 such as Ghostbusters, The Terminator, Sixteen Candles, Footloose, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and the list goes on. Hence, it was a bit overshadowed! In fact, in the 80s, 1984 was the best year and 1987 was the worst year.

      What do you mean “underrated”? It was always rated even when it came out the critics loved it & even gave Jeff bridges a best actor Oscar nomination,just because it underperformed at the box office didn’t mean it wasn’t critically acclaimed,which it was and has always been acclaimed as being great film. Being “underrated” means a film is better than the reviews and acclaim that it gets.

    We watched this movie at the AMPAS screening before public release (our neighbor Tracy was an employee at AMPAS. ) It was memorable: as the small audience was leaving there in the Lobby was Lloyd Bridges! He wanted to talk with anyone and wanted us to know that the Star of this movie was ... his son! He was dressed in a dapper suit. Quite dapper and very proud. At that moment we didn't realize how famous his sons would become.

And if I know women she gives the impression that she really likes to f*** and she will let you throw her around like a ragdoll. In my experience if she has thin eyebrows she doesn't have a hairy bush either. 🤔

    Karen Allen was so pretty and had those beautiful Bambi eyes, and she was an excellent actress too! It's a shame that Hollywood usually tosses actresses aside when they get too old for most leading lady roles. I remember an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation with actress Jean Simmons, and she was amazing! Merrill Streep, Helen Mirren and Ellen Burstyn are all fantastic, but they're not the only older actresses capable of great performances. Hollywood needs to do a better job of creating roles for them.

    She got her husband back, only to lose him again. Such a bittersweet ending. Brought me to tears when I saw it. Also, is it just me, or does the ship look like a planet with a ring?

      Not her husband. Also, she never took marital vows, so the sex was fornication and the child a bastard. It will not be able to be baptized, and will got to hell when it dies.
