A classic story of love between a young boy and his friend.

Rating: 10/10 (17 June 1999)

This story is one that still touches me to this day. I remember watching it in the theater as a young boy in 1985 when it was rereleased, it touched me then and still does to this day. Elliot made a friend with E.T. and the two became so close that Elliot knew E.T.'s feelings. If you can watch this movie and not cry when Elliot and E.T. are telling each other goodbye, then you must be one cynical person. E.T. and Elliot became so close in the purest form of love ever known. A heartwarming tale of love and friendship that deserves its place among the great movies of all time.
