Here today, gone to tomorrow.
When George (Rod Taylor) sits at
the controls of his new creation,
he has all the time in the world.
He's invented a Time Machine
that whisks him from 1899 to war-
ravaged moments of the 20th century
and into 802701. In that far-off era,
passive Eloi face a grim future as prey to the glow-eyed subterranean
Morlocks...unless the time-traveling stranger from the past intervenes.
At the controls of the movie of HG. Wells' classic The Time Machine
(now digitally restored and remastered and in remixed Dolby Stereo) is
effects trailblazer George Pal, whose features and short films won a com-
bined seven Oscars and Special Awards" One winner was this beloved
adventure loaded with visual marvels from the nuclear destruction of
London (complete with lava eruption) to the colorful whirligig of time travel
Afterward, Time Machine: The Journey Back
reteams Taylor, Alan Young and Whit Bissell to
recount the making of the film, the legacy of
moviemaker Pal and in a poignant episode, a
reunion of George and Filby (Young) penned by
The Time Machine screenwriter David Duncan.
