Starman (1984)

Jeff Bridges leaves his alien planet (and presumably his record player) behind in order to answer a decades-old invitation to come to Earth. Whilst there, he acts as a mirror to our baser instincts. Along the way he learns practicalities and in return helps a widowed woman experience what it is to feel alive again, all to the sounds of a pleasing electronic score by Jack Nitzsche.
It's a sweet film that becomes more endearing after repeated viewings because there's a genuine sincerity to many of the players and the decisions they make (and Karen Allen has a voice that I could fall in love with).
I also like that I can squeeze it into my Dir. Carpenter theory (something inside trying to get out, etc), albeit in a less straightforward fashion.
