E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial 1-Disc Box Set DVD

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is the warmly remembered live-action feature from 1982 that follows a small alien creature stranded on Earth after his ship hastily departs, and the young suburban boy named Elliott who discovers him in the broader backyard and conceals him in his home as the broader family slowly comes to understand the extraordinary visitor in their midst. The tone strikes a profoundly tender balance between sweeping suburban adventure and gentle coming-of-age storytelling, leaning into the broader source mythology of friendly first-contact storytelling. Watching it feels like a foundational piece of broader cinematic storytelling.
