et51103.jpg (8660 bytes)

In E.T., an alien botanist becomes stranded on Earth and is befriended by a little boy named Elliott (Henry Thomas). As the government searches for the alien, Elliott secretly moves E.T. into his suburban home setting the scene for one of the funniest and most endearing stories of hide and seek in cinema history. When released in 1982, the movie was hailed as a triumph of special effects and storytelling.

The 1982 release was directed by Oscar-winner Steven Spielberg and written by Melissa Mathison.. E.T. won four Academy Awards: Best Effects, Sound Effects Editing; Best Effects, Visual Effects; Best Music, Original Score, and Best Sound. Additionally, the feature was nominated for five additional Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Cinematography, Best Film Editing, and Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen. In this extended version, released in 2002, additional footage not seen in the original release will be presented. [HDTV - 720P, DD5.1]

PROBATION OFFICER SLAYING LEADS DETECTIVES TO CROOKED CLAN OF IRISH GYPSIES -- The murder of a female probation officer (guest star Angela Reed) leads Detectives Goren (Vincent D'Onofrio) and Eames (Kathryn Erbe) to suspect her boyfriend, a college anthropology professor, or his delinquent teenaged son who reported to the victim -- but their attention soon turns to the dead woman's vagabond family of Irish gypsies. The detectives connect a few dots and discover that the clannish family's lifestyle was to keep moving from one petty scam to another, a lifestyle that the probation officer vehemently opposed and intended to change for at least one relative. Jamey Sheridan and Courtney B. Vance also star. TV-14
