TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Most of the full-body puppetry was performed by a 2'10" tall stuntman, but the scenes in the kitchen were done using a 12-year-old boy who was born without legs but was an expert on walking on his hands.

Steven Spielberg shot most of the film from the eye-level of a child to further connect with Elliott and E.T.

At one point, Gertie looks down at E.T. and says, "I don't like his feet." This was ad-libbed by Drew Barrymore and was actually her referring to the grouping of wires coming out of the E.T. puppet. She also ad-libbed the line, "Give me a break!" after Elliott tells her only little kids can see E.T.

The end of the film was one of the most significant musical experiences for composer John Williams. After several attempts were made to match the score to the film, Steven Spielberg took the film off the screen and encouraged Williams to conduct the orchestra the way he would at a concert. He did, and Spielberg slightly re-edited the film to match the music, which is unusual since normally the music would be edited to match the film. The result was Williams winning the 1982 Academy Award for Best Original Score.He recreated this at his last appearance with the LA Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl in 2013 conducting the orchestra live while the last reel was shown on the jumbotrons.

In the Halloween scene, where E.T. sees a child in a Yoda costume and seems to recognize him, This is an inside joke by Steven Spielberg on his good friend, Star Wars creator George Lucas. In Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999), Lucas returns the joke in a scene that takes place in the galactic senate. In the shot of the various senators calling out, you can see E.T.'s species among the senate pods in the lower right corner.
