About Back to the Future in brief
Back to the Future is a 1985 American science fiction film directed by Robert Zemeckis. It stars Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Crispin Glover, and Thomas F. Wilson. In 1985, teenager Marty McFly is accidentally sent back to 1955 in a time-traveling DeLorean automobile. He is forced to reconcile the pair and somehow get back to the future. The film was a critical and commercial success, earning USD 381. 1 million to become the highest-grossing film of 1985 worldwide. It received multiple award nominations and won an Academy Award, Saturn Awards, and a Hugo Award. In 2007, the U.S. Library of Congress selected the film for preservation in the National Film Registry, finding it \”culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant\”. It has been adapted into a 2020 stage musical, but the filmmakers have affirmed they will not make another sequel as they consider the series concluded. Two less-successful sequels, Back to the Past Part II and Back to The Future Part III, followed Back toThe Future. The success of Back To The Future launched a multimedia franchise. This includes an animated TV series, video games, comic books, board games, clothing, music, books, food, toys, collectibles, and theme park rides. It is now considered to be among the greatest films of the 1980s, one of the best science-fiction films ever made, andone of the greatest movies of all time.
It has also inspired numerous books about its production, documentaries, and commercials, including a book about the making of the film and a series of books about the film’s story. The outline of Back to the Future originated in 1980 after Bob Gale found his father’s school yearbook; he wondered if he and his father would have been friends as youths. Over 40 studios rejected the script, but it was not considered raunchy enough to compete with the successful comedies of the era. The first choice to portray Marty was Eric Stoltz, but his working schedule prevented his involvement; he was cast instead. Re-casting Stoltz delayed production and pushed back the film’s release date. The release date was moved forward to July 3, 1985, to give Back to the Future more time in theaters. It was filmed in and around California and on sets at Universal Studios. It received multiple award nominations and also earned a Academy Award nomination. The theme song, \”The Power of Love\” by Huey Lewis and the News, was a significant success globally, and also earned an Oscar nomination. In the years since its release, Back to the Future has grown in esteem and has a dedicated fan following, including an animated television series and a comic books series. It also has a successful video game franchise, Back To the Future Part II, as well as a comic book series, and several other spin-off products.
