E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is the classic story of the special friendship that develops between Elliott, a lonely young boy living in a suburban California community, and a wise, benevolent visitor from another planet who becomes lost on Earth. As Elliott attempts to help his new friend contact his home planet so that he might be rescued, they must elude nasty scientists and government agents determined to kidnap the alien. What results is an an adventure greater than either of them could have imagined. In 1982, audiences worldwide embraced E.T. and it became an instant hit, a movie that touched hearts and minds in equal measure and delighted millions with a timeless story of friendship.
