“It Came from Outer Space” (Universal-International, 1953). Original British Lobby Card.

Astronomer John Putnam (played by Richard Carlson) climbs down into the meteor crater and stumbles upon the alien spaceship.

 

“It Came from Outer Space” tells the story of an astronomer and his fiancée who are stargazing in the desert when a large fiery object crashes to Earth. At the crash site, he discovers a round alien spaceship just before it is completely buried by an overhead landslide. When he tells this story to the local sheriff and newspaper, he is branded a crackpot. Before long, strange things begin to happen, and the tide of disbelief turns hostile.

 

“It Came from Outer Space” was the first film in 3-D from Universal-International. It was produced by William Alland, directed by Jack Arnold, and stars Richard Carlson (as astronomer John Putnam), Barbara Rush (as schoolteacher Ellen Fields), and Charles Drake (as Sheriff Matt Warren). The film's script is based on Ray Bradbury's original story treatment (not, as sometimes claimed, a published short story) "The Meteor."
