William, you time traveler, you! You have hit the proverbial nail on the head in your description of the magic which is the "Time Machine." Your depiction of the philosophical aspects of the movie are in tune with the mvie's ambiance so closely that it appears that the effect has indeed touched you for life...as it has Francois and myself! From the moment that Rod Taylor as 'George' pushes that lever on his fantastic invention forward, we are in H.G. Wells' world! We are the Time Traveler and we are moving spritually into the unknown, forbidden void called the Fourth Dimension, crossing the barrier of what can truly be called (to coin a phrase) the 'last frontier!' Thank God we had the wonderful vision of George Pal... that blessed soul will never know of the imaginative fires that he lit when he sent us on that journey for the first... TIME!May we all continue the vision, in his name and to the memory of the master writer, H.G.Wells, who, setting his thoughts down on paper, conceived the magic with the first stroke of his pen! Nostalgic, wondrous, fantastic... and who can say? Maybe one day... a common possibility! |
