E.T.
E.T. is mainly a si-fi film this is because the main focus of the film is an alien, dramatic music and darker grading but occasionally throughout the film you get a feeling that you get from a coming-of-age film. You see this other genre coming through the films heavy si-fi facade when Eliot and et become friends and you see Eliot take responsibility and looks after E.T. and helps him attempt to contact his home planet. You see the film change pace a few times throughout the film. It starts of as possibly a thriller with the dark grading and dramatic music building up tension before the audience finds out that the creature in the crops is friendly. Next it moves into the coming-of-age section of the film where Eliot bonds with his brother and sister, Gertie and Michele and E.T. the alien. The final most prominent Genre is the Si-Fi element where the government officials come and do tests on E.T. and the dramatic sound, harsh lighting creating lens flares and fast editing are all classical elements of si-fi.
