E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial – Big Screen Society
The UNITED present a Big Screen Society film series screening of Steven Spielberg’s groundbreaking 1982 alien extravaganze E.T.. In this classis, heartfelt sci-fi masterpiec, a gentle alien becomes stranded on Earth and befirended by a young boy named Elliott. Spielberg, a known master of sci-fi stroytelling, is releasing his new alien epic on June 12 – Disclosure Day (also playing here) – which is why we decided to bring E.T. back to the big-screen as intended (FUN fact: E.T. orignially played the UNITED in 1982 and was the last film to play here before the theater closed in 1986). Critic Pauline Kael called it “a dream of a movie.” Watch the E.T. trailer here.
