All services are based on working days. Weekends, Bank Holidays and other closed days are not counted. Then, I head to the studio. I go a little earlier now to join editorial calls and figure out how the show and the day is going to be shaped. I like being part of the creative process. Next, I go to hair and makeup, which... can I just be honest? As great as our team is, it's my least favorite time of the day because I'm such a tomboy. After that, I'm reading scripts and getting ready for the show. Sometimes, I'll have a couple of shoots for pre-taped segments beforehand.

What’s more, our collection comprises mini, midi and maxi lengths to complement all shapes and sizes. Daytime dresses Spielberg’s only direction to Thomas was to do whatever it takes to stop the government agent from taking the alien away. In the heartbreaking audition (which you can watch above), Thomas broke down in tears while pleading with Fenton not to take his friend, prompting Spielberg to conclude the session with “OK kid, you got the job." 5. Peter Coyote’s bad audition for Raiders of the Lost Ark got him a part in E.T. Spielberg relays that sense of awe and wonderment of what it was like to be let free on Halloween and roam the neighborhood in search of candy by framing it through E.T.’s eyes. Through the little eyeholes of his ghostly sheet, we feel and see E.T’s curiosity. We feel his trying to make sense of the costumes, whether the more ghoulish costumes have “ouchies” or whether a young Yoda is a friend like him. It’s through Halloween that Spielberg nails that childhood magic and nostalgia. What would it feel like to be a kid again on Halloween? This scene sums it up.

Coyote, who was given snippets of the Raiders of the Lost Ark script along with a character outline of Indy, brought along a dashing fedora to accentuate his audition in hopes of wowing the two Hollywood heavyweights. But when he was told it was his turn to go, he tripped over the wiring of the lights that were set up in the room. His stumbling first impression was the furthest thing from the debonair, tough-guy Indy. The part went to Harrison Ford, but Spielberg found something endearing in Coyote's clumsiness, and when it came time to cast Keys—an adult with childlike wonderment—the choice was obvious. The lesson? Sometimes being awkward pays off! 6. The combination of a painting and photos of famous people inspired the look of E.T.

I'm an earring girl now, which I never really was. My friend Simone Smith, LL Cool J's wife, has a great jewelry line. Whenever I wear Simone's jewelry, I feel like I'm making an LL video. What I've found is that if I put a little hoop in, it actually makes me look like I tried. Clothing That Makes Her Feel Powerful: Spielberg worried that his intensely personal story wouldn’t resonate with audiences, and that they might have trouble identifying with a potentially off-putting alien character. Once finished, E.T. was publicly previewed a handful of times, but when the film was shown out-of-competition at the 1982 Cannes Film festival, audience members stood and applauded 15 whole minutes before the film ended. The standing ovation went on for another 15 minutes after the credits rolled, and Spielberg knew he had hit the perfect mark. After the Cannes screening, he received a telegram from fellow director François Truffaut, who acted in Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind. The telegram read, “You belong here more than me,” echoing a similar line his character uttered in Close Encounters. 18. The film wowed audiences and heads of state alike. The two friends and collaborators had hidden little nods to each other’s films in their work before, but for E.T., Spielberg didn’t need to hide anything at all. In one of the film’s cheekiest jokes, E.T. sees a child dressed up as Yoda for Halloween, prompting the little alien to exclaim, “Home! Home!” Spielberg didn’t tell Lucas about the joke until he held a personal screening for his friend at his Skywalker Ranch, which Lucas approved of with laughter. When he went on to make The Phantom Menace, Lucas returned the favor and made E.T.’s race of aliens part of the Galactic Senate. You can see them acting uncharacteristically hostile in the video above. 17. François Truffaut gave the film, and Spielberg, his blessing.Intensity jumps a few notches by treating The Crazies like 28 Days Later or other “Rage Virus” films. Eisner produces an infinitely scarier version of The Crazies on a purely visual level. Ogden Marsh’s “crazy” residents almost look zombified as they skewer, roast, and commit heinous acts of violence against their neighbors, fitting the 2000s need one-up what’s shown during weekday news segments. Eisner is going for the full-on horror experience, from righteous jump scares in sudsy car washes to gnarly killing blows in mechanic bays, if only to emphasize what Romero established years prior. He’s able to retain the anger in Romero’s themes while adding post-millennium angst and pulse-pounding tension, staying true to the original’s conspiratorial themes with a deeper bite. Ruching generally does not work for me. I’m also not a girl who loves something that's bejeweled or adorned with a lot of stuff. That doesn't do it for me. And I am like, if I don't ever wear another cold shoulder, I would be too thrilled. What She Wears on Repeat:
