The story is captivating and brings together a considerable number of spectacular characters and situations. With aliens having long been an attraction, not only for the composer but also for moviegoers. In addition, John Williams wrote one of the most successful scores for E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, the soundtrack is full of memorable themes and textures that underline all of the film's defining characteristics. The personal approach refers strictly to the structure of the musical themes, elements of language and musical syntax.
