	Time After Time DVD Review

	dOc DVD Review: Time After Time (1979)
		The concept of Time After Time is that the novel, The Time Machine, wasn't actually fiction per se, but inspired by H.G. Wells' real-life experiences from building his own time machine.
		While there is a subtle element of 'thriller' here, Time After Time actually functions more as a light romance film, in which Wells is enchanted by the utterly alien nature of Amy, very much a 20th-century woman.
		A good example of substance over style in a sci-fi movie, Time After Time is solid entertainment and an admirable attempt at something a step off the beaten path, especially for the late 1970s when films like Alien and Moonraker set such enormous standards for production and eye-candy.

		Adapted from an unpublished story, Time After Time manages to capture the wonder of the best science fiction stories and the qualities that make a great suspense film.

	All-Reviews.com Movie/Video Review: Time After Time
		TIME AFTER TIME, 1979 film and directorial debut by Nicholas Meyer, is perfect companion piece to it.
		Meyer uses time travel to confront Wells' ideals with reality - when he arrives in San Francisco during the zenith of ultra-liberal, hedonistic era of sexual revolution and counter-culture, he discovers that many of his ideals are reality.
		Most of the time, that concept was nothing more than a convenient excuse for exotic, but standard adventures and films without any ambitions of seriousness.

	Greg Bear interviewed - infinity plus non-fiction
		Hegira (1979), Beyond Heaven's River (1980), and Strength of Stones (1981) are entries in a space operatic future history that ranges in focus from mere centuries hence to the end of time itself.
		In twenty novels and two collections, he has fused informed and inspired scientific speculation with visionary inquiry into the biological, social, and psychological roots and potentials of the human species; and while writing tales that apparently fit the parameters of this or that subgenre, he has consistently transcended any such limits.
		Two novels mark this transition: Blood Music (1985), a potent exploration of how the very small might assimilate the very large, and Eon (1985), which introduces humans of the near future to the tunnel their descendants have driven to infinity.

	Greg Bear: Hegira - an infinity plus review
		This early novel (the first one he sold in fact) by Greg Bear, published in 1979, revised by the author in 1987 and now reissued by Millennium, is set in a world which at first seems technologically and socially mediaeval.
		This plot summary makes Hegira sound run-of-the-mill; a book worth passing the time with if ale-quaffing and horsemanship are your scene, but possibly not otherwise.
		Second, the short (and this is a short novel, not one of your sprawling thousand-pagers) Borgesian meditation on the nature of the text and the meaning of life.
