ARTHUR C. 2001:
A Space Odyssey
2001 "poses metaphysical,
philosophical and even religious questions... I don't pretend we have

about concern with man's hierarchy in the universe, which is pretty low.
It's about the reactions of humanity to the discovery of higher
intelligence in the universe." -Arthur C. Clarke
