Back to the Future
Back to the Future is a 1985 American science fiction film. It was directed by Robert Zemeckis, written by Zemeckis and Bob Gale and
produced by Steven Spielberg. It stars Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd and Crispin Glover. The film tells the story of Marty Mc Fly, a
teenager who is accidentally sent back in time from 1985 to 1955 in a plutonium-powered "time machine" invented by slightly mad scientist
Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown. He meets his future parents in high school and accidentally attracts his future mother's romantic interest. Marty
must repair the damage to history by causing his parents-to-be to fall in love. With the help of the scientist, he must find a way to return to
1985 and go back to the future.
Zemeckis and Gale wrote the script after Gale mused upon whether he would have befriended his father if they attended school together.
Back to the Future was released on July 3, 1985 and became the most successful film of the year, grossing more than $383 million
worldwide. It won the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation and the Saturn Award for Best Science Fiction Film. The film marked the
beginning of a franchise, with sequels Back to the Future Parts II and III released in 1989 and 1990.
