The original script (written by Gale and Zemeckis) had the film climaxing at a nuclear test site in Mexico in the opening, Marty was to have been watching a documentary about those events. Producer Bob Gale ( Used Cars, Back to the Future Part II/III) called the shot of all the clocks a “pain in the ass” because of the necessary intricate camera movement they are an homage to (“or rip off of”) The Time Machine. The opening scene was shot at Universal stage 12. While filming with Eric Stoltz was taking place on Bushnell Avenue in South Pasadena (George McFly’s house), Fox had been working on Teen Wolf on the same street, and the actor recalled seeing the crew and saying that he wished he could be in a Spielberg film someday.Ģ. Fox said he was often asked how he could maintain that schedule and he referred to Zemeckis being “possessed” (excited), saying that if his energy dropped, the director’s enthusiasm always brought him back up.
By this time, the production was able to make a deal to use Fox part time, with a shooting schedule of 9:00 am to 6:30 at “Family Ties,” then Back to the Future until 2:00 or 2:30 am. Both the actor and Director Robert Zemeckis ( Castaway, Contact, Death Becomes Her, Romancing the Stone) felt the role wasn’t working out Stoltz reportedly played Marty too dramatically. Eric Stoltz ( Two Days in the Valley, Pulp Fiction, The Butterfly Effect, “Caprica”) was chosen and about a month of filming (in January 1985) with him as Marty McFly was completed.

Fox was always the first choice to play Marty McFly, but when the film was initially being cast, Fox was working on “Family Ties” full time and the show producer (Gary David Goldberg) would not release the actor. Its time travel method and logic may make no sense but the beauty is, we don’t really care-we’re just along for the nostalgically fun ride.ġ. Fox and Christopher Lloyd were born to play Marty and Doc, you’ll remember how good Crispin Glover can be, and even Lea Thompson surprises with her super sweet (and sometimes creepy) portrayal of Marty’s amorous mother. Back to the Future is one of those movies, so go pull out your DVD right now and pick a night to settle in with a couple of old friends.
There are certain films that when we re-watch them after years gone by-having inexplicably forgotten their magic and charm-make us wish we hadn’t waited so long to see them again.
