Back to the Future is a perfect movie

Everything about this movie is so impressive. The story is immaculately plotted: you can’t remove a single plot point without it falling apart. The set-up of George and Lorraine’s romance, the rules of time travel, the lightning bolt: everything has a purpose and a payoff. The comedy that arises from Marty interacting in the 1950’s, his mother hitting on him, having to give pep talks to his dad so he’ll take in Biff at the end…it’s all so wonderfully presented and satisfying in a way that few movies are. It’s one of the great American films via /r/movies https://ift.tt/2XKsRjr
