I remember my Dad and Mom brought my brothers and I to the theater. I was clueless, not knowing what movie it was that were going watch. It was E.T.!
E.T. was created as a friendly extra-terrestrial being who was left behind on Earth, but aided by the young boy Elliot to return home. In the course of this encounter, a unique friendship would emerge to the benefit of both characters and the delight of audiences around the world.
I remember being freaked out first 15 minutes, because it was like a horror movie! I was holding on to my Mom's hand because I was getting scared! But as the movie progressed, I was glued to the screen!
I think it was one of the greatest movies I have seen. I might watch the movie again.
