As marvelous and wonderful as Oz was, all Dorothy kept saying to everyone was, “I want to go home!”
E.T. was intent on “phone home” so he could leave this strange place called Earth (though he made some friends here) and return to where he belonged.

Even when they returned to their home in England, there was a yearning for something more, something better, something that met their longing like nothing of this mundane reality could.
