Back to the Future
The beloved 1980s classic transports Marty McFly back to the 1950s, where he has to ensure his parents fall in love and get himself back to the future.
Director: Robert Zemeckis
Overview
The beloved 1980s classic transports Marty McFly back to the 1950s, where he has to ensure his parents fall in love and get himself back to the future. Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale’s supremely smart script offers a textbook example of how to construct accessible comedy and drama around complex concepts such as paradox and destiny.
The film that inspired a million “McFly?” jokes, countless Flux Capacitor references and innumerable mispronunciations of the word ‘gigawatts’ remains one of the most cherished films to emerge from Hollywood’s mid-1980s, mini-Golden Age.
