This is a gem. Modern Hollywood needs to take note that even a used premise can have originality while using limited cast and sets. The waitress was essentially no one yet I still enjoyed even the bit characters. The story itself is still pertinent. I've long been saying that humanity doesn't have the maturity to deal with our tech advances, and I still see it in today's news. Also, our governments have not been particularly worthy of trusting. By those points alone modern Hollywood wouldn't go near this premise.

[@internetcensure5849]

"The waitress was essentially no one "😁😁 The cutest of all!

[@lauwilliams-hn8qs]

The movie has originality because its purpose was to set the stage for the actual visitation, which occurred in 1957 by Valiant Thor of Venus. Well documented.....but not widely known!

[@neatrealthompson4624]

I really appreciated how the movie focuses on relationships instead of special effects

Great quality....I mean the clarity of the film! 🙂

[@kengruz669]

I was hoping for an ending where the Venusian and Patricia Neal's character realize they're in something approximating love, she asks to come back with him, and he reminds her of the atmospheric difference in planets. But then there's a, "But maybe there is a way, on the way back and continuing on Venus we can adapt your respiratory system as I adapted mine for Earth." The Earth folks then find something of hers at the site where the Venusian was picked up by his craft and realize she went back with him.

[@neatrealthompson4624]

Yes that would've been a great ending😊

[@thomasgansevoort929]

This film is made three years after.'The Day the Earth Stood Still', one of the great si-fi films of all time.' The. ' Stranger from Venus'. takes the same idea of the earlier film and shuffles the story a bit. 'Stranger has a much simpler budget but manages that problem extremely well. Helmut Dantine does a fine believable job as an alien. Patricia Neal, a lead character in both films is extraordinary as usual. Although the direction is not perfect it is very well done. The ending, of which we are given some forewarning, is beautifully, poetically done, with that stroke of genius I forget all the other small flaws the director may have made. All in all this is quite a fine film, a good print, and most enjoyable....and please watch this is it's original Black and White which this print is. It deserves to be seen that way.

[@Rossbite]

I enjoyed this piece, ahead of its time and the acting nicely presented and leaving plenty of room for future speculation .... I shall look to other similar films as can be recommended. I think it would be interesting also to see some of Helmut Dantine work as a German solider ...

I paused the film at that same moment. It feels to me as though the stranger’s planet of origin was changed from the first draft of the script at some point and this line somehow didn’t get caught. Or maybe this dweeb from the Ministry of War has no concept of astronomical distances. At least he didn’t mistake light-year as a measure of time.😂

Once the movie had it precognition's, it was a stranger from Venus-who thought the earthens were too slow in development. He spoke, of oxygen, hydrogen, atomic, & n/r having a big part in production of world current events. He fancied Susan who seemed dorky & had a fiance. When the alien left he left Susan scarf behind. I guess he rather go back to his world.

[@wildcatherder]

What if an extraterrestrial wanted to give an international press conference and nobody was allowed to come? It seems likely "Gretchen" was, in fact, an advance agent of the Venusians. Otherwise, her role seems to have no point in the movie. The symbolism of her praying to a lamp at the end of the film seems to have been overlooked as a giveaway. :)

[@zanti209]

Coming on the heels of THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL, this one could easily be dismissed as a straight up rip-off. However, there are some differences which take the story in a somewhat different direction. Less special effects and a bit more ephasis on personal relationship. Setting in England vs the USA. Less heavy handed treatment of the alien by ye olde brits. More pathos and poignant. ⭐⭐⭐ all night long and into the morning. Quite watchable. 👍

[@phdtobe]

Brits at that time were much less beligerent that Americans.

[@lauwilliams-hn8qs]

The movie wasn't meant to compete or correlate with any other film. Its purpose was to pave the way for the actual visit. This was a precog of what was to occur 3 years later when a Venusian came in March of 1957, meeting Eisenhower at the Whitehouse and other leaders at the UNs, etc over 3 years..

[@Liberty4Ever]

Magnetic force decreases by the square of the distance (inverse square law), not the cube of the distance.

[@phdtobe]

@@Liberty4Ever You are confusing magmetism’s decrease with that of gravity.

[@Liberty4Ever]

@@phdtobe - I don't know about magmetism, but magnetism, electrostatics and gravity are all inverse square phenomena.

[@phdtobe]

@@Liberty4Ever Uhhh… The inverse square law for magnetism applies to a line charge, say from a wire with an electric current running through it, that is relative close. But at a significant enough distance, the line charge looks like a point, resulting in effectively two dipoles interacting, which results in a inverse-cube effect.

For all those who think this is simply fiction, it was the precog for what would occur in March of 1957 when a Venusian, named Valiant Thor, came to meet with leaders, Eisenhower at the Whitehouse and then other leaders at the UN over a 3- year period. Based on their abilities, it would be easy for them to plant this storyline to be made into a movie to soften human acceptance of them, raise awareness and get the message out of their true purpose. Note, this movie was "independently" made in 1954, 3 years later he arrives, staying for 3 years. Check it out for yourself. The proof is out there in books, articles, govt reports, photos, eyewitness accounts, etc.
