At the worldwide box office is Steven Spielberg's Day of Revelation, the famous director's first film in four years. Film critics and Spielberg fans will inevitably compare it to the director's already classic science fiction films, Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T. After all, “The Day of Revelation” is again a story about an encounter with extraterrestrial intelligence. According to the plot, this meeting takes place in the early days of the Third World War, which would seem to turn the film into a topical political commentary. However, Anton Dolin is sure: Spielberg’s new film should be discussed not so much in political, but in religious terms.
