Let's ignore that the "asset" is humanoid, displays intelligence at every opportunity, is viewed as a prospective test subject for a US space launch, yet is savagely abused and treated with contempt. I mean, even in the movie period of the 50's we were alert to alien contact and here's one in our (South American) backyard. More consideration was given a coelacanth, found in the same waters.

Ok film, enjoyed

It was a nice weird movie I liked it
