238- Back to the Future (40th Anniversary)
"He was never in time for his classes... He wasn't in time for his dinner... Then one day... he wasn't in his time at all."
It's time to put on our life preserves and get in our DeLoreans as we travel back to the year 1985 to review the beloved classic Back to the Future!
In 1985 Hill Valley, 17-year-old Marty McFly is a typical teenager trying to find his place in the world. When he accidentally sends himself back in time to 1955 he must work with the young Doc Emmett Brown to get back to his present whilst reconciling his future parents to save his own existence!
Back to the Future is a story about the relationships between children and their parents, the romanticisation of the past and the anxieties of 80s America, told thought one of the best written Hollywood scripts and some of the most iconic characters of 80s cinema.
