E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial

Join us for a screening of the classic film “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial” as part of our “Better on the Big Screen” Movie Series sponsored by Williams Eye Works and Richmond University Medical Center. 

About the Film:

After a gentle alien becomes stranded on Earth, the being is discovered and befriended by a young boy named Elliott (Henry Thomas). Bringing the extraterrestrial into his suburban California house, Elliott introduces E.T., as the alien is dubbed, to his brother and his little sister, Gertie (Drew Barrymore), and the children decide to keep its existence a secret. Soon, however, E.T. falls ill, resulting in government intervention and a dire situation for both Elliott and the alien.
