Back to the Future
There will always be a generational divide between adults and their adolescent offspring, but "Back to the Future" devised an ambitious, creative, and incredibly scientific approach to get parents and children to understand one other by making them all 17 at the same time. Marty McFly spends his time in 1985 avoiding his nerdy and dejected parents, George and Lorraine, and hanging around with Doc Brown, a local crazy scientist.
He shows Marty the time machine he's created in a DeLorean one night, and before he realizes it, Marty has been transported 30 years back in time. To make matters worse, he's expected to play matchmaker for his future parents – or else he won't exist. That's going to be difficult because George is a jerk and Lorraine has a crush on Marty, who she doesn't realize is her son from the future.
Starring: Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson
Director: Robert Zemeckis
Year: 1985
