Listen "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial "
Episode Synopsis
It captured the imaginations and box office numbers of 1982 and it's the episode we've been waiting to do: E.T! Join us on a 90 minute conversation that covers how the film was made, the casting, the reception, and recalling how this visitor from outer space captured our hearts. In some ways this is the quintessential childhood adventure film, and its legacy endures on. We were both lucky enough to grow up with this movie on repeat, so the question this week is:
How could you not think E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is Spielberg's best movie of the 80s?
It's a bold question in a decade with three entires to the Indiana Jones series and The Color Purple. But on this episode we ask, and hopefully defend our claim.
