Back to the Future (35mm)

Friday, December 26, 2025, 7:30 p.m., Dryden Theatre

(Robert Zemeckis, US 1985, 116 min., 35mm)

Skateboarding high-schooler Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) finds himself transported to 1955 via a DeLorean time machine invented by his nutty professor pal, Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd). Stuck in the past, Marty must initiate his own existence by finding a way to introduce his hopelessly nerdy father (Crispin Glover) to his mother (Lea Thompson). Frenetically-paced and endlessly clever, this massive hit is just as much fun 40 years after its first release.

About This Series

Back to the Future @ 40

3 Films on Screen Aided by stolen plutonium, a tricked-out DeLorean, and the ingenious flux capacitor, Marty McFly took his first trip back to 1955 forty years ago. As a result, he flew into the hearts of the American public, ruling the top of the box office for nearly three months. The brainchild of partners Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis, the science fiction adventure comedy perfectly blended ‘80s style and ‘50s nostalgia into the story of a young man who has to save his life by saving his parents’ marriage.
