E.T. plagiarism... 26 years before E.T....

Warning: Spoilers
A cute little Venusian alien (who can transforms himself in saucer) get lost on Earth. Luckily, two little girls adopt him and name him Meba. The two little girls have to stay at school during holidays with the son of the director and his mom and dad. Meba wants to recover a bit before flying back to Venus, during that time the children will care on him. But some burglars want to commit hold-up in the school and finally they kidnap Meba… The children will save him and he will fly back to Venus… This small movie has been made for children in the 50's. It is without any pretension but is worth of watching… But it's interest is that you cannot imagine that Steven Spielberg didn't watch it when he was a kid! It looks too much like E.T. Examples: The size and the look of Meba, with his big tender rolling eyes… Meba although communicates with telepathy with the children… the scene with the dog, the scene when the children put a sweet-shirt to Meba when he's cold, the scene with the bicycle, when Meba uses the phone and try to call the police… and so on. It's completely incredible. There are too many coincidences… But nowhere Spielberg mentions this movie… Strange
