031 - E.T. The Extraterrestrial

To close out our summer season, Carolyn and Colin wanted to go back 40 years to the summer of 1982, when Steven Spielberg's film E.T. The Extraterrestrial hit the big screens. Known as one of the greatest summer blockbusters of all time, this movie features an unforgettable friendship, and incredible score,  and some of the most iconic imagery still referenced in modern pop culture. Friend of the podcast, Christopher Tobin, stopped by to give us an in depth look into the composer John Williams, who is responsible for some of the most popular scores in film history, including this one. 

This movie gave both our cohosts an opportunity to re-examine their childhoods and go back to a simpler way of watching a movie, where the story is given more space to breathe and action didn't dominate every frame.
