E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1985r)
Original re-release b&w publicity still #5255-R8 from E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982).
Reflecting the film’s gentle redefinition of science fiction as an intimate, emotional family story. Steven Spielberg’s portrayal of an alien not as a threat but as a vulnerable, childlike presence reshaped popular culture and became a defining moment of 1980s cinema. E.T. endures as a symbol of empathy, friendship, and the longing for connection across worlds.
The image captures E.T. seated at a cluttered table, mid-meal, his wide, expressive eyes fixed on someone just out of frame. Surrounded by everyday household objects, the composition emphasizes his fragile curiosity and gradual integration into human life. Shot in soft monochrome, the still highlights the tactile detail of Carlo Rambaldi’s creature design and the film’s warm, observational tone, turning a simple domestic moment into something quietly magical.
