Ashley Montagu

Orson Welles — with contributions from scientists George Wald, Carl Sagan, and others — examines the possibility and implications of extraterrestrial life. In examining our perceptions of alien 'martians' from his "War of the Worlds" broadcast, to then-modern explorations of Mars, this film from NASA provides a unique glimpse at life on earth, and elsewhere in the universe.

Vintage documentary that briefly looks at the making of several parts of the film and showcases Heston discussing the film and philosophizes with famed anthropologist Ashley Montagu.
