Sommario/riassunto

"Placing the film 'Back to the Future' in the context of Reaganite America, this book discusses Zemeckis' film-making technique and its relationship to the 'New New Hollywood', as well as exploring the film's attitudes to teen culture of the 1950s and 1980s and its representation of science, atomic power and time travel."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
