Story Time

Three words that made cinema history

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial wasn't born as the sweet family classic everyone remembers today. Its origins lie in Night Skies, a much darker alien project that Spielberg abandoned, but from which one idea survived: that of a gentle creature left behind on Earth who forms a bond with a child. During the filming of Raiders of the Lost Ark, Spielberg discussed the concept of the abandoned alien with Melissa Mathison, who turned it into a story about loneliness, childhood, divorce, and the desire to go home. Her first screenplay took about eight weeks, and the film began to take shape with the secret working title A Boy's Life.

What made the film special was how it managed to make science fiction something domestic and everyday. Spielberg shot much of the story from a child's eye level, kept the faces of many adults hidden until later stages of the film, and allowed the most emotional scenes to feel natural rather than overly planned. E.T. wasn't presented as a monster confined to a lab, but as a strange friend hidden in a suburban home, watching television, eating Reese's Pieces, and trying to communicate with the children. Even his voice had an unusual origin: sound designer Ben Burtt constructed it from the raspy voice of Pat Welsh, whom he randomly met in a photo store.

Released in 1982 after premiering at Cannes, E.T. became one of the iconic films of the decade: a huge commercial success, a merchandising phenomenon, and a rare blockbuster built more on emotion than spectacle. The phrase “E.T. phone home” almost immediately entered popular culture, but it worked precisely because it encapsulated the heart of the entire film in three simple words. Behind the flying bicycles and the glowing finger lay a story about a lonely child, a broken family, and an alien capable of transforming a normal suburban world into something magical.
