According to my mother, E.T. was the first movie I saw at a movie theater and it's a story that makes me laugh every time she tells it.
Apparently I was having a great time taking in this new experience of being at the cinema..........until that infamous scene when E.T. pops out of the closet. I started screaming and crying, fell off my seat and hit my head, so my father took me to get some popcorn to calm me down. Of course he buys me the extra large bucket of popcorn which was probably as big as I was and allows me to carry it to our seats. Bad idea. Half way down the isle I dropped the bucket and sent popcorn flying everywhere. I start crying again. My father takes me back to get the bucket refilled (crying kids always get free popcorn) and I enjoyed the rest of the movie without further incident.
