TAGLINE : "He has traveled from a galaxy far beyond our own. He is 100,000 years ahead of us. He has powers we cannot comprehend. And he is about to face the one force in the universe he has yet to conquer. Love." - An alien takes the form of a young Wisconsin widow's husband and makes her drive him to his departure point in Arizona. Distrustful government agents, along with a more ambivalent scientist, give pursuit in hopes of intercepting them. Jenny Hayden never did get over the death of her husband, so when an alien life form decides to model "himself" on the husband, Jenny is understandably confused if not terrified. The alien, or Starman, as he is called, has a deadline to meet and kidnaps Jenny in order to meet it. Nominated for Academy Award OSCAR for BEST ACTOR (Jeff Bridges). CAST includes Jeff Bridges, Karen Allen, Charles Martin Smith, Richard Jaeckel, Robert Phalen, Tony Edwards, John Walter Davis, Ted White, Dirk Blocker, M.C. Gainey, Sean Stanek, George 'Buck' Flower, John Carpenter. BEHIND THE SCENES TRIVIA : Producer Michael Douglas couldn't have been more pleased with the choice of John Carpenter to direct the film. Douglas said, "John's a great choice for 'Starman.' He's got a great sense of style and deals with action masterfully. I knew he was looking forward to directing a film that's essentially a love story, one that depends exclusively upon handling the relationships between people and their character development." Carpenter was known at the time largely for his great success as a director of horror films such as Halloween (1978), The Fog (1980), and Christine (1983) but had the opportunity to flex new muscles with "Starman." Douglas added: "Of course, people haven't seen this side of John, and they will be surprised to see how well he handles a love story, a comedy, a tender touching romance, and [an] adventure." According to John Carpenter in the audio commentary on Big Trouble in Little China (1986), the main reason he directed Starman (1984) was due to the box-office disaster of The Thing (1982); he needed to make a movie that was tonally the complete opposite of 'The Thing' to ensure his employability in Hollywood. Director John Carpenter was extremely enthusiastic about the opportunity to show America at its most beautiful. Producer Larry Franco commented, "There are an awful lot of films today that focus on the things that are wrong in America. We had an opportunity with 'Starman' to show the good side of America . . . its beauty and the beauty and potential of its people."
