Phone home! If
Jaws and
Star Wars transformed Hollywood and American moviegoers’ cinematic direction in the mid-to-late-‘70s, it was
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial that kicked it into another universe in 1982. When a gentle and kind alien is stranded on Earth, it's up to 10-year-old Elliott and his peers to protect him from the government and find a way to get him home. Designed to pique the sci-fi curious while remaining accessible for anyone in the family, Steven Spielberg's unprecedented hit holds up as both an artifact of its era and just plain satisfying entertainment.
