Presented as part of Scarecrow Academy: The Art in Sci-Fi Part 2: Science Fiction and the Director

Two brothers (Mel Gibson and Joaquin Phoenix) realize that crop circles on their farm are indications of a coming alien visitation, a situation that provides Shyamalan a chance to exercise his talent for purely cinematic chills—and he doesn't even need a twist ending.

Scarecrow Academy presents the second part of our in-depth look at how some great directors tackled science fiction. The Art in Sci-Fi Part 2: Science Fiction and the Director continues with its fall semester, an eight-week online discussion series in which we'll analyze directing methods in detail, and define what makes great style in this rich, complex genre.

Discussions are led by National Society of Film Critics member Robert Horton, author of the Seasoned Ticket column at the Scarecrow blog and Scarecrow's "Historian-Programmer in Residence." The Zoom sessions are free and open to all; there's no homework, but we ask that you register online in advance.  Visit bit.ly/scarecrowacademy to learn where to view the films and see other events in the series.
