Drew and Henry are so adorable here doing math. This film was a true labor of love.

[@martinefrombdx]

Steven saved this little girl. She seemed so happy to be on set with him and the cast

[@Sigma0283]

Drew Barrymore was so adorable in this movie.

Spielberg was so good directing kids, they felt like he was one of them.

[@Chris-bs4qy]

kids are kids until they get more deep and opinionated as adults. want to stay a kid? stay simple and never think too deeply

[@davidgriffin14]

What's up with him dressing like a woman?

[@yrnhhngr]

That's how you groom them.

Drew is just one amazing actress. ❤️

[@scarletweb2106]

Drew is so cute

[@JasonRyanWilson410]

Drew was the exception to what Hollywood is and what It was. Her father and Grandfather were both in the business. She was born into this. I loved her in firestarter.

[@christopherrichards2350]

E.T. is one of my favorite movies and 2022 will be the film's 40th anniversary

[@jesselyngonzalez537]

That little boy is so sweet to little drew. Beautiful

[@sliat1981]

Ironically he hated girls in real life. Probably because she was so young it didn’t bother him too much.

[@Carolmakof]

One of my all time favorite movies. I've seen it at least six times and I still get all choked up at the end when ET says, "I'll be right here."

[@cagedtigersteve]

It's so amazing to see these scenes to a movie you watched as a kid and believed to be real.

[@kelseymariel2127]

I always thought she was just so cute. I was 16 when this movie came out and my friends are I used to love to repeat Drew’s lines in her voice “alligators in the sewers”, “a deformed kid”…she’s cute in every movie and still has that adorable voice. Don’t ever change Drew.

[@jonathanswift2251]

It's amazing that Elliot from E.T. would grow up to play not one but TWO of the scariest homicidal villains in cinema history: a young Norman Bates (originally from Pyscho) in a prequel movie and in Dr. Sleep as Jack Torrance (originally from the Shining).

[@PatrickMealeyVO]

I love how Drew isn't scared of the ET puppet and even asks about the wires too. That's just too cute!

[@scarletweb2106]

Drew Barrymore is so adorable when she screamed

[@dylanpsinakis7930]

Lisp Drew…. Such a cutie😍😍😍

[@arula376]

Drew my favorite actress!

[@paigem.6487]

Drew was so cute as a child!! 😍

[@darthvaydr]

I remember seeing this at the theater like it was yesterday. I was only 11 years old at the time but I remember how much I loved it. Being a huge Star Wars fan, I loved all the Star Wars references in it lol I have no memory of ever knowing about Reese’s Pieces until I saw this film but I got a bag of them while I first watched it because they were so heavily marketed with this film. I bet E.T. made the Hershey company a lot of money back then lol

[@MilmorInc]

“A million nicer” I’m gonna start saying that everyday

[@user-dr2yz8um3d]

Spielberg thankfully had that sense of childhood wonder Anyone else would’ve botched this up making these kids annoying and detestable But the guy drew from his own experiences and had a great cast of youthful actors

[@yrnhhngr]

Lol right. He felt like a child himself, like Michael Jackson ;-)

[@Overlorddz]

Animatronic puppets are the fuckin coolest thing ever invented

[@sliat1981]

Steven Spielberg in a dress. Now I’ve seen everything

[@tmsskits]

Spielberg: "I thought you guys learned about maths and stuff" Henry: "WE WEEERE" Spielberg: "oh" Henry: "We just burned out books yesterday"

[@Martha.rose2000]

The boy who played Elliot and Drew doing math is so cute! And Elliot talking about E.T.'s wires for feet...They are just so cute!

[@deenagara9151]

FUN FACT: Spielberg is Drew's godfather.

[@yrnhhngr]

lol i bet he is. also heather o'rourke's and many other kids probably.

[@nancyenright9562]

I often wondered if in the early scene in the kitchen when Elliott calls his brother "punishment breathe" if that was ad libbed because the half shocked and half laughing reaction from the actress that played the momwas so genuine

[@mibeatleman6767]

Drew Barrymore was so cute then.

[@angelperez2632]

Still she is

[@j0hnnyboi1]

I need more baby Drew in my life ❤

[@damaniqphillip2756]

WOW!! I thought 90+90=180 😂 that's Drew's NEW math! 🤣

[@angymartinez4692]

Aww Drew innocence

[@PJB-ks9vn]

Did you know that the alien in E.T. was not always a puppet? He was actually played by a kid born with no legs.

[@mikesilva3868]

😊❤🎉best movie ever made

[@HuggiMa]

90 and 90 is a hundred.

[@only257]

Love this movie 🎉

[@jeffh06]

The behind the scenes documentary when Stephen Spielberg shows Drew the ET puppet isn’t afraid but with talent and comedy👍 when Gertie screams starts to put ET in alert and then wouldve signal their mom! wouldn’t know what if she’ll react ether freaked out, or would had faint😂🤷🏻‍♂️ then wouldn’t have him around wont be able to get home😄

[@RapFanatic4ever]

Drew Barrymore was so cute as a little girl . I still can’t believe she wss that little here . This is when kids could act

[@Surfer041]

The world was so much better.

[@Michael-jw6et]

It's bizarre to see these kids playing with what would become a historic character in cinema. They had no idea what was actually in front of them.

[@xCookieNationx]

90s me calling e.T The extra-terrestrial

[@antayat123]

Why is spielberg in drag? Keeping in tune with the Halloween scenes?

[@elijahvincent985]

It was Halloween day of 1981 when they filmed that part. So he decided to playfully dress up as "Elliot's Grandma." It was requested by Drew and Henry.

[@antayat123]

@@elijahvincent985 cool deal. Great info. Were you part of the crew or talent?

[@kimberly11091]

Remember, she loves eating other people's body parts. Only fans of scd will understand this reference

Why is Steven wearing women outfit

To think this actress gets gutted by a man in a mask 14 years later.
