Geoffrey Horne who is best known for playing the relatively innocent Lt.Joyce on
the mission with Jack Hawkins and William Holden in The Bridge On The River
Kwai plays an alien with a mission of his own in this Twilight Zone story. Unlike
Michael Rennie he doesn't land in Washington, DC. Instead it's a remote Mexican
village where he's shot by police investigating the UFO report.
Sadly this is probably how humankind might greet others from the great beyond as Horne phrases it. In a rather heavy handed simile he compares how people received Jesus back in the day.
The only two who are friendly are Nico Minardos the village doctor who has a bit more education than most and Edmund Vargas a young 9 year old orphan who has the innocence of childhood.
Thought provoking but it uses a sledgehammer to deliver its message.
