<big>'''Unmarked Spoilers Ahead'''</big> - this movie's plot is so famous that [[It Was His Sled]] applies here.
'''''The Day The Earth Stood Still''''' is a 1951 black-and-white science fiction movie based on the short story ''Farewell to the Master''. The [[Human Alien]] Klaatu lands in Washington DC (in a classic [[Flying Saucer]]) during the [[Cold War]] era. The paranoid military shoots him, prompting his [[Killer Robot|robot]] Gort to go on a rampage. Klaatu stops Gort, then tells the President of a message for all the world's leaders (who can't agree on a meeting place). Klaatu later escapes to live among the people of Earth and learns of their penchant for war—but also of their message of peace and understanding.
