				Why watch this? 
				When Marty meets his parents, back in the 1950's, the fun really 
				begins. 
				Plot Summary: Marty 
				McFly is a teenager who travels back to 1955 using a time 
				machine built by his friend, the eccentric scientist Doc Brown. 
				He accidentally prevents his parents from meeting and falling in 
				love, putting his own future existence at risk. Marty must 
				ensure his parents get together and find a way to return to his 
				own time. Dad's Preview: 
				This now iconic film's success hinged on properly casting the lead. 
				Wisely, director Zemeckis replaced Eric Stoltz with quick-witted 
				Michael J. Fox from TV's 
				Family Ties. The rest is film 
				history. It's a time-jumping adventure that keeps the viewers guessing 
				as altering actions in the past might impact the 
				future. Think about it - what would you change if you could travel back in time to 
				meet your parents in high school? No way that doesn't get a little weird.
