30 Nostalgic Behind The Scenes Pictures From Some Of The Greatest Movies Ever Made

As a kid who grew up extremely unsupervised, I watched a lot of movies. Like, A LOT of movies. If I didn’t have to be at school, I was watching movies.

Now, thanks to the internet, I can go back and rewatch many of my nostalgic favorites, but also I can also look up the behind the scenes pictures from almost all of them.

Here are some of my favorites I’ve found while digging around. There are classic and current films, and most of these pics I’ve never even seen before.

1. Remember that scene in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial where E.T. wears a ghost costume and we can see through his eyes?
