Cool Patricia Neal - Helen Benson in 'The Day the Earth Stood Still' (Pt.1)




The Day the Earth Stood Still is a 1951 black-and-white science fiction film that tells the story of a humanoid alien visitor who comes to Earth with a warning. The film stars Michael Rennie, Patricia Neal, Sam Jaffe, and Hugh Marlowe, under the direction of Robert Wise. Screenwriter Edmund H. North based the screenplay on the 1940 Harry Bates' short story "Farewell to the Master." The score was composed by Bernard Herrmann and used two theremin electronic instruments. (from Wikipedia)

BlackV8 sez: The Day the Earth Stood Still and War of the Worlds are two of my favorite 1950s sci-fi films. They both have good stories, are well executed and have particularly excellent, intriguing designs for the aliens and spacecraft. This is by far the better film, however. I can think of two reasons this movie dates so much better than WOTW. First, the cinematography in this one is excellent: lighting, angles, composition- looking at the screen captures below, they could be photographic publicity stills (you wouldn't even realize, for the most part, that these are cropped from widescreen format). Second, the performances here are top notch. Patricia Neal has the heft to be able to portray a young widowed mother. She is believable as a woman who both wants to take a day away with her boyfriend, and is cautious about leaving her son in the company of a man she has only just met. Her character has layers, like when she is tucking her son in, listening to his theories about "Mr. Carpenter," simultaneously dismissing them to the boy as she becomes more convinced there is something "off" about the man (he's an alien). Neal does have the ability to give a bloodcurdling scream when the moment warrants, but that isn't her whole repertoire as an actress!

I also find her appearance to be spot-on; she is a young mother who is still very attractive, but not dressed like a pin-up model (not that there's anything wrong with pin-up models).
