This motion picture seemed to have a life of its own, transcending even the high expectations of a legion of fans anxiously awaiting its arrival, delighting millions with a story at once singular and timeless, with the power of a fable and the soul of a fairy tale.That film is Steven Spielberg's acknowledged masterpiece E.T. the Extra Terrestrial. And now, in celebration of its 20th Anniversary, United International Pictures, Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment are re-releasing this remarkable film in a new edition that includes never-before-seen-footage, state-of-the-art computer-generated enhancements, and a digitally remixed soundtrack, all under Spielberg's personal supervision.
