Firelight (1964 film)
''Firelight'' is a 1964 science fiction adventure film written and directed by Steven Spielberg at the age of 17. Made on a budget of $500, the film was, in a manner of speaking, Spielberg's first commercial success, as it was shown at a local cinema and generated a profit of $1. "I counted the receipts that night", Spielberg has recalled, "And we charged a dollar a ticket. Five hundred people came to the movie and I think somebody probably paid two dollars, because we made one dollar profit that night, and that was it."〔''Inside the Actor's Studio'', with James Lipton interviewing Steven Spielberg.〕
Although ''Firelight'' is Spielberg's first film made, it is not seen as his directorial debut. The film widely seen as his feature-length directorial debut is ''Duel'' (1971), although "L.A. 2017", his long-form episode of ''The Name of the Game'', precedes it.
Two reels of ''Firelight'' are now lost. Spielberg returned to its subject matter for his third major film, ''Close Encounters of the Third Kind'' (1977).
==Plot==
''Firelight'' follows a group of scientists — particularly Tony Karcher and UFO believer Howard Richards — as they investigate a series of coloured lights in the sky and the subsequent disappearance of people, animals and objects from the fictional American town of Freeport, Arizona. Among those abducted are a dog, a unit of soldiers and a young girl named Lisa, whose abduction induces a heart attack in her mother. The film has sub-plots involving marital discord between Karcher and his wife Debbie, and the obsessive quest of Richards to convince the CIA that alien life does not exist. The twist comes as the aliens, represented by three shadows, reveal their purpose: to transport Freeport to their home planet Altaris and create a human zoo.
