Contact

I've posted before about Carl Sagan and one of his books is on TV tonight. Five is showing Contact at 9pm this evening. I first saw the film at the cinema when it first came out (1997) and I've seen it a few times since (on DVD and TV) - but it still has an impact on me. Although it has its share of silly Hollywood nonsense, it has some truly wonderful moments - one of which is the opening sequence which should not be missed.

I've also read the book, which is very good and has none of the Hollywood smaltz.
