Invaders from Mars (1953)

Fearful memories of this timeless 1953 sci-fi classic still haunt the dreams of fans who have never forgotten the story of a young boy who witnesses an alien invasion. It's since become a modern classic and was also one of two early 50s classic alien-invasion science-fiction films (the other is Robert Wise's "The Day the Earth Stood Still") reflecting Cold War tensions, the Red Scare, and paranoid anxiety typical of many films in the 50s. Before its release, Invaders from Mars was featured for its excellence in restoration at the Turner Classics Movies Festival in Hollywood, Il Cinema Ritrovato in Italy, and the Fine Arts Film Festival in Venice, CA. It also received the inaugural Hollywood Professional Association Award for Restoration and Preservation. Star Jimmy Hunt received the Cinecon Legacy Award at last year's festival in Hollywood.
