There are a lot of either or statements about this guy and weβre only 10 minutes into the flick. #Monsterdon
Boy, will we never see his face, only the back of his head the entire time?
Venus Man demonstrating that what you know is far less important than what you can convince others of.
#Monsterdon #StrangerFromVenus
That is how the Police work
"A woman has gone missing.....arrest the nearest oddball"
See the Murder of Jill Dando
Y'think the Stranger only got paid half rate in exchange for only shooting him from the back, and shoulders-up? #monsterdon
nobody's asking about his number maybe he's a Village refugee ever think about that did you DID YOU HUH?!
[flatly]: "I have come to earth to tell you -- you need more coo-coo clocks on that wall."

It's day-night again, very familiar #monsterdon
This is one of the hardest to see day for night shots I have ever seen.
#Monsterdon #StrangerFromVenus
A guy with a German accent in England in the early 1950s who says he has no name, nothing to worry about
Given the state of that car wreck, I'm guessing he was drunk AND dead. #monsterdon
Is this a day for night shot? The tone is so bad I can't actually tell
A tree spontaneously sprouted from the hood of her car! #Monsterdon
Ahhh, the 50s. Era of the majestic Land Schooner.
Why would it be better for him to look first? Is this some ranking thing?

I want to hear this alien say "paging Mister Herman" #monsterdon
There are only 2 possibilities. I am drunk or you are dead. Can I suggest a third possibility that both are true... #monsterdon
Man, dude gets a checkup right in a bar, the NHS really IS amazing. #monsterdon
"Good evening. I am from Venus."
You have no pulse. There are only two possibilities. I am drunk, or you are dead.
I vote for drunk.

His name is obviously Slartibartfast #monsterdon
#Monsterdon I would like to tend a garden in exchange for room and board ... oh wait, I already do!
#MarriedLife
They warn Americans about this. You go into British pubs and an old man's gonna start touching your wrist. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon The ascot makes the man
Spouse guesses that they didn't have to pay the actor as much if they promised not to show his face

Weird Physics: The crashed Cadillac's wheel covers should have rolled off out of site, but are leaning against the car! Must be "Brilliant Magnetism"!
"I have never paid taxes. I am Karl Marx." #monsterdon
A MAN WHO DOESN'T PAY TAXES!
Do you feel well young man?
#Monsterdon #StrangerFromVenus
I am the man with no name who speaks in a thrilling monotone.
everyone is fine with this guy not having a name but they check his sanity when he says he never paid no taxes #monsterdon
He has never died either
Taxes? That is the focus here and not the name portion of the conversation?
That ascot is saying "hel-LOOOOOO" #monsterdon #thestrangerfromvenus
#monsterdon I always enjoy my draft beer glass wiped with a dirty bar rag prior to service!
Aha - Tom Hardy the proprietor has a bit of a limp. I suspect he'll be getting the magic Venusian touch to heal that in no time.
I'll have a wine beer #monsterdon
He was hoping for an IPA #monsterdon
Ok, going to skip the first 5 minutes and try to catch up.
A lonely evening at the Soundstage Arms pub
This is was places ought to look like. Picture rails, plaster, giant barrels of alcohol. #Monsterdon
Fighting #plex tonight. I kinda hate it. Will probably switch off of it soon. But we are late to #monsterdon because Plex is being a jerk.
"Heeeeey, you look weiiiiird... are you AI generated?!"
[flatly]: "Hi. I am from the planet venus. I am a stranger. Please do not make nuclear war; it is bad. Goodbye."
Actually all this talk in the tag about terraforming Venus makes me want to go watch Exosquad. #monsterdon
Stranger From Venus: "I need your clothes and your motorcycle." in Ahnold accent. #monsterdon
So, does not not have a face, or...
IMDB says he played a role in Casablanca but was not credited #monsterdon
i don't know who this venus stranger is but he doesn't seem to know how to look at the camera #monsterdon
Took me a second to realize this aerial footage was a model. #monsterdon
They're more terrified by the lively music that comes with the Stranger than the stranger himself. #monsterdon
i don't know if my ears are broken or what but i can't really understand what anyone is saying because their american accents are so thick
#monsterdon
YES I love an early 20th century upper class British accent even MORE #monsterdon
no one will be admitted during the thrilling door opening sequence
Man. This place is *jumpin'* huh. #monsterdon

ποΈοΈ There are many mixed messages as to what country this event takes place: Accents, car models, uniforms and government agency names.
ποΈ The writers evidently did not want to call out any particular country with the movie's hard-hitting message.

Okay, I'm two minutes late, but I'm plowing ahead.
