Jackie and Greg are back for a very special episode this week, as they celebrate the 40th anniversary of Steven Spielberg’s E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL. Topics of discussion include its origins as “A Boy’s Life”, the storybook look and feel, how John Williams’ score elevates the film to opera, and why it’s endured for 40 years as an evergreen classic. Stay tuned for the second half of the episode where they sit down with actor Robert Macnaughton, who plays the older brother Michael, as he reflects on his time making the film and the impact it continues to have to this day.The continuation of our "Personal Prints" series where Jackie and Greg venture off the Sight & Sound “Top 100” list to explore films that are special and/or formative to them.Check us out at our official website: https://www.sceneandheardpod.comJoin our weekly film club: https://www.instagram.com/arroyofilmclubJP Instagram/Twitter: jacpostajGK Instagram: gkleinschmidtPhotography: Matt AraquistainMusic: Andrew CoxSpecial Thanks: Robert MacnaughtonSupport the showSupport the show on Patreon: patreon.com/SceneandHeardPodorSubscribe just to get access to our bonus episodes: buzzsprout.com/1905508/subscribe
