plan: Halloween scene - its what we don't see in horror films, so seeing an alien is the scariest part for the characters who don't know - sun is setting, its Halloween which makes it easier, Halloween is celebrated a lot in America - see it from his point of view as he walks alive scene - close up shots of his expressions - flower comes alive, his reaction changes - music changes - he acts like a baby to get what he wants - he is surrounded by people with white costumes on which suggests a hospital atmosphere. - camera is at Elliots height which makes the audience involved drunk scene/ frogs - - Elliot feels what et does - what et sees and is thinking of Elliot does - link to singin in the rain era - Elliot freeing the frogs is a metaphor for freeing et goodbye scene - long shots - looking up to them camera angle - mainly focusses on the main two E.T frogs scene: Mise en scene                 Costume: The Cost...

Audiences praised the subtle acting, showing an almost imperceptible expression of hunger, grief, or lust in turn.
