    In 1982, my Dad took me and my brother to see this movie at the cinema. I was 5 years old and months earlier had lost my Mum to breast cancer. Instantly, this movie became my favourite and many a night my Dad put on the soundtrack (a 48" vinyl) on his old record player in the hall for me and my brother to listen to as we drifted off to sleep. I'm now 46 and yesterday my Dad, my brother and I went to watch it in London with a full philharmonic orchestra playing in sync. It was beyond emotional🥲I laughed and cried with my 5 year old heart watching it through my 46 year old eyes. This film and soundtrack was my saviour throughout my childhood and continues to be to this very day. 'I'll be right here....'💖

      ​​@@adriannicolini6427I disagree, there hasn't been a movie like ET in decades. No blockbusters as good, anyway. Christopher Nolan makes impressive cinematic experiences but he's yet to do anything as heart-warming or optimistic as E.T., The Wizard of Oz, Singin' In The Rain, Casablanca or the first Star Wars. There's tons of shallow films about love and wishy washy stuff, but GREAT films like this are a relic of the past. The ones still being talked about years later.

      Well, I'm 60 now and STILL cry when I watch this movie.
      beautiful detail in the acting, notice Henry Thomas' expression at a bit before 40 seconds into the video... he's looking up with awe, like everyone else, when suddenly his expression changes to one of sadness, the realization that E.T. will be leaving.
      That just makes the "Come." "Stay." interaction so much more impactful.

    I think the key to this scene is Mary dropping to her knees when ET and Elliott hug. It's the universal acknowledgement recognized in film that kids will think, feel, and experience things parents will both have understood because they once felt it, and forgotten because it happens to us all when we grow up. That she's been left by their father to be the real parent only adds to the power. Dee Wallace's powerful performance in this moment is the seal to the deal that makes a gorgeous movie so much better than it already was. This was a miracle of cinema.

As a guy in his late 20’s I’ve never got to experience the movie in 1982 but I do have a small memory of seeing the re- release in 2002, but I saw it in IMAX for the 40th anniversary and seeing it on the big screen blew me away. The music and the excitement for me was all there and of course I had my Reese’s Pieces to go with it. A magical moment in my life that’ll never forget.

    There's actually a deleted scene right after this one before the ending credits where it cuts to the following night at Elliott's house. Elliott, Michael, and Michael's friends are all in Elliott's room, and Elliott looks up into the heavens to say one last goodbye to E.T. And then they all play Dungeons and Dragons in Elliott's room with Elliott as the game master. The camera them pans back from Elliott's room and up onto the roof of the house with the communicator sitting on top of it to let the audience know that there could be a time where Elliott and E.T. would someday meet each other again.

    • @fabulousfrance

      Good they left it out. Spielberg refused any sequel of E.T. It's definitely not necessary, the studios put pressure on him to write one, so he wrote a poor one where bad E.T's with red eyes would invade Earth, so Elliot would call E.T for help. Of course this idea was rejected but recycled by Spielberg years later on.
      It became: The Gremlins

    Unbelievably sad. Interesting fact. The last scene in the script and filmed was Elliott playing Dungeons and Dragons and the shot pans out to the roof and you see the communicator still lit up meaning Elliott is still able to communicate with E.T.

    Most often, film composers must write music to match the final edit of the picture. However, Williams was having difficulty hitting all the emotional changes with one of the edits of E.T.’s final scene that Spielberg had presented him. Spielberg responded to ‘forget the picture and just write the music as you see fit’. Williams finished the composition and Spielberg and his editor cut the picture to match Willams’ perfect musical conclusion to this movie. Way to go, John, Steven and Michael.
