Plot – Dr. Brown is a wild scientist who invented a time machine that works perfectly. Brown has just finished explaining Marty, his young friend, how to use the vehicle, when the Libyan terrorists show up, looking after Doc who has stolen their plutonium, the time machine’s propellant. They take him out and Marty manages to run away by activating the vehicle, which brings him back to 1955. Here he meets his still young parents and misadventures are to follow. It is now a classic, a movie that spreads nostalgia for the ‘50s and the Reganian period. This clever screenplay is directed by Zemeckis and produced by Spielberg.
