## Description

"Stylish. Charming. Continuously exciting!" > > > > > Here today, gone to tomorrow... When George (Rod Taylor) sits at the controls of his new creation, he has all the time in the world. He's invented a Time Machine that whisks him from 1899 to war-ravaged moments of the 20th century and into 802701. In that far-off era, passive Eloi face a grim future as prey to the glow-eyed subterranean Morlocks...unless the time-traveling stranger from the past intervenes... At the controls of the movie of H.G. Wells' classic 'The Time Machine' (now digitally restored and remastered and in remixed Dolby Stereo) is effects trailblazer George Pal, whose features and short films won a combined seven Oscars and Special Awards. One winner was this beloved adventure loaded with visual marvels from the nuclear destruction of London (complete with lava eruption) to the colorful whirligig of time travel, a sequence which remains a tour de force with a shop window mannequin demonstrating a parade of fashions as the years fly by in seconds. The future is a wonderfully coloured landscape with properly gruesome cave-dwelling monsters and a winning Eloi heroine in Yvette Mimieux. It may not be totally Wells, but it's a treat…

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent, clever and very touching adaptation of H.G. Wells great classic
*by D***K on 6 February 2014*

Even if this film is now 54 years old, it still remains amongst the best SF films ever - and definitely the best adaptation of novella "Time Machine", a great old classic written in 1895... Below, more of my impressions, with some very limited SPOILERS. On January 5, 1900, four friends arrive for a dinner at a house located near London, but their host, H. G. Wells (Rod Taylor), whom they usually call George, is absent. As requested, they begin without him, but then George staggers in, exhausted and shocked, wearing dirty clothes. He claims that he just came back from a time travel to the most distant future... And then the film begins. PRECISION: I cannot compare this film with 2002 version with Guy Pearce, as I didn't see this latter movie - and after watching the trailer I certainly do not intend to. Although old and using antiquated special effects, this film is nevertheless a most excellent thing, which I watched recently with as much pleasure as when I saw it the first time on TV as a child in the 70s. As most people know the greatest part of the time travel described in H.G. Wells story occurs in year 802 701AD, a time in which humanity is divided into two different sub-species, the beautiful vegetarian Eloi living on the surface and the monstrous cannibalistic Morlocks who hate sunlight and dwell underground. Well, here the story was a little bit changed but it actually did this film a great deal of GOOD as the main hero has to stop a couple of times on his way to 802 701AD - and those added chapters are excellent! Once we arrive to the era of Eloi and Morlocks, the film returns to the original story and does it with considerable fidelity, even if here also some changes were done, making this film somehow less pessimistic and cruel than the novella. The strength of this film is not in the speciall effects, but in the story, the dialogs, the general atmosphere and an excellent performance offered by Rod Taylor and also by the leading lady. Yvette Mimieux who plays Weena, an Eloi girl George meets in 802 701AD, is a splendor to contemplate and even though the story doesn't offer her too many good lines to say, she portrayed the main female character very skillfully. One can simply not help but like Weena and I started to be very concerned for her safety from the first second I saw her - and there were reasons to be concerned... The one thing that is missing here are those pages of the novella which describe the dying Earth 30 million years in the future - in the film the hero doesn't go that far. However, the very ending of the novella is present in this film - and it is a great and very, very touching moment. Bottom line, this is a GREAT film, which (other than in the special effects) didn't age at all. A recommended viewing. Enjoy!
