Review by Mel Valentin - 2008
"The Golden Age of science fiction films can be traced to a three-month period in 1951 that saw the release o three science-fiction classics, two dealing with alien invasions or visitations, "The Thing From Another World" and "The Day The Earth Stood Still," and the third with a doomsday scenario, "When Worlds Collide." Of the three, "The Day the Earth Stood Still" was the most “serious,” both anti-war and anti-Cold War. Loosely based on Harry Bates’ short story, "Farewell to the Master," that appeared in "Astounding Science Fiction." Read full review here...
