Jennifer is the town sexpot. She plays her troubled girl role well. Voight and Thornton steal the picture in minor roles. Voight as the blind Indian, dispensing wisdom on the street. Thornton as the crooked car mechanic, riling Penn up.
Powers is the always drunk sheriff.
This film should be judged for its originality and the beautifully violent look it has to it. A unique semi-documentary in that it has actual footage from two sightings of UFO's. They come at the end of this very plodding film, which consists of reenactments of dull interviews with Air Force personnel and newspaper reporters. For those who are still doubters, the film asks the viewer to at least keep an open mind. It was difficult for me to interpret what I saw, but I'll keep an open mind.
