E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial
According to Stephen Spielberg, the concept of E.T. evolved out of a question he asked himself about what if an alien from Close Encounters of the Third Kind had stayed behind as a sort of exchange student? He then imagined the character from the perspective of his own childhood and the loneliness he felt during his parent's divorce. Thus, 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.

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial first premiered on May 26, 1982, at the Cannes Film Festival and later on June 11, 1982, across the United States. Its success was immediate, even surpassing the first Star Wars movie as the highest-grossing film of all time.
