	Time travel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Time travel is the concept of moving forward and backward to different points in time, much as we do through space.
		The assumption that time travel or superluminal communications is impossible allows one to derive interesting results such as the no cloning theorem, and how the rules of quantum mechanics work to preserve causality is an active area of research.
		Time travel themes in science fiction and the media can generally be grouped into two types (based on effect—methods are extremely varied and numerous), each of which is further subdivided.

		The notion of H.G. Wells travelling through time to stop Jack the Ripper and falling in love with a "liberated woman" actually isn’t as silly as it might sound; on the other hand, it’s not quite as profound as some have assigned it to be, either.
		Time After Time is a fun, fluffy tale that crosses many genres and is thus immediately graced with at least the potential for very wide audience appeal.
		A week after watching this movie, you’ll probably remember how fun and fluffy it was, but a bit more hard pressed to come up with any serious commentary that was being made, however "in your face" the attempt.

		As a time traveler, H.G. Wells would seem an ideal candidate since he would be open to the concept of experiencing unknown worlds and his natural curiosity regarding science could conceivably help him adapt to a new and foreign environment.
		By proposing the question what if Jack the Ripper had escaped in time and was pursued by the inventor of the time machine, this movie allows the viewer to explore a possible explanation of the end of Jack the Ripper.
		Wells is also the first writer of time travel fiction that I am aware that it has been suggested (at least through fiction such as this) that he might be have obtained some of his knowledge of time travel first hand.

		McDowell — typecast as the heavy after his startling performance in A Clockwork Orange — was allowed to stretch his acting muscles in Time After Time and takes every advantage of the opportunity.

		After all, how is a celebrated novellist who finds himself the star of a museum exhibit supposed to know that some little newspaper short stories would yield teh most prolific movie character of all-time?
		Steenburgen herself is quite shrill in the way of late-1970s movie heroines - think Diane Keaton - but this is in keeping with her charcter and serves as a counter-balance to the sweetness of Herbert.
		It's a sign of the overall maturity of Meyer's script that he finds time to thrown in snippets of social commentary on the increasing disposability of human life and the role of women in society.

		Wells has built a time machine in his cellar, which the Ripper uses as a means of escape.
		One of the movie's themes -- that Jack the Ripper would be more at home in the contemporary world -- still holds up well, with news reports of murders and terrorist bombers on the TV.

	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.
		Clever writing keeps the movie entertaining, primarily because, despite some well-placed moments of humor, director Nicholas Meyer does not overdo the time travel gimmick, but instead relies primarily on the chemistry of the lead actors, who all fit the story quite nicely.
		The elements combine to form an impressive movie that, while not perfect, is an intelligent mixture of social commentary and old-fashioned, adventurous storytelling.

		Fortunately time travel is a device to set the stage for the movie, and the weak special effects can be forgiven given the quality of the rest of the movie.
		The entire point of the movie is that H.G. Wells created the time machine that allowed Jack the Ripper to escape to wreak havoc on modern utopian society (so H.G. Wells thought it would have to be), and Wells feels obligated to stop him.
		The movie would have survived on the romance alone, but then it would have been very similar to the Christopher Reeve movie "Somewhere in Time" released the year after this movie that was primarily about romance, and relied more on fantasy than science fiction.

		from Lowell, MA "Time after Time" is a clever battle of wits between Jack the Ripper, who has used H.G. Wells' time machine to escape to the year 1979, and H.G. Wells, who steps into the machine to get to 1979 too, and chase after the Ripper.
		Particularly interesting is how Jack the Ripper, an evil serial killer, finds himself completely at home in the year 1979, while H.G. Wells, with his idealistic dreams of a perfectible society, is completely out of place in our modern era.
		Mary Steenburgen, as Wells' newfound love interest in 1979, acts well enough, but she delivers some of her lines unconvincingly.

		Meyer is less interested in the possibilities of the time travel device than he is in the possibilities offered once he gets the two characters into the present-day.
		In a real world she and McDowall, cast here as lovers, met on set and were married soon after the film, and the romance between the two really gives the film an authentic center.
		The sharp-eyed can spot a small brass plate on the time machine in the Pal film, which notes that the real name of the time traveller who has only been named George is H. George Wells.

		According to the movie, the time traveler can travel to any time, but is confined to whatever place the time machine is sitting in the future, be it in a museum, at the bottom of the ocean, or destroyed.
		Besides, since the machine was an untested contraption, Wells probably couldn\'t have accurately predicted all the oddities of time travel, and this may have been an unexpected side effect of his invention.
		In a sense, perhaps he\'s lucky that he (and Jack the Ripper) happened to travel to a time & place where the machine still exists in one piece and in a safe place...
