My parents almost threw away the movie when I was younger for this very reason. My heart and stomach absolutely sank when Elliott called his brother P-breath. Rather than using swear words the profanity contained in this film instead consists of scatological and anatomical insults. She not only does not make any effort to stop or correct their behavior whatsoever, but she also seems to encourage it. The first immediate issue is the mother who very shockingly lets her children get away with all sorts of bad behavior. It is without a doubt a timeless classic. It surpassed Star Wars as the highest grossing film of all time and was nominated for 9 academy awards, winning 4.
Of note, this was the closing film at the 1982 Cannes Film Festival, where it made its premiere. I suspect by that age they'll have seen enough that this will not be at all awe-inspiring. Moreover, waiting until later years is sure to see the humor and more touching scenes fall flat. This film is full of movie magic that can capture the minds of young watchers in ways cartoons can never do, and is sure to be a memorable experience for them. I would question waiting until kids are 10 or 15 as some suggested. and he becomes ill, dying because he is without his family. Another scary scene is when the authorities come to get E.T. It is a funny scene but one that may require some explaining (but a good opportunity to learn). finds beer in the fridge and mistakenly gets drunk, smashing into a few things. Perhaps the only questionable scene for me is when E.T.
who sees the world hilariously anew while also performing a few alien like abilities. Instead, they fell in love with the lovable E.T. Of concern for me is whether it will give my children (4 & 7) nightmares or make them behave in ways that hurt others-it did not. I'm not a stickler for swearing so I honestly didn't notice this. The story is fantastical in many ways, easily capturing kids imaginations about what an alien might be like, but also what its like to deal with a big situation without mom or dad. befriends a young boy and his siblings, who help contact and return E.T. It is a very simple story about an alien (E.T.) who gets left on earth and wants to go home. This is one of the most classic films your kids can watch, with themes dealing with love, space, family, friends and a bit of seeming magic.
