The Day the Earth Stood Still
Ongoing
With Michael Rennie, Patricia Neal, and Hugh Marlowe. A humanoid alien and his robot accomplice, Gort, land their spacecraft on Earth just after the end of World War II, bearing a warning that the violence on the planet—and man’s designs on other galaxies—could provoke a coordinated space-robot attack that would destroy humanity. Gort implores the earthlings, “your choice is simple. Join us and live in peace, or pursue your present course and face obliteration…”
