Greatest Movie Of All-Time

Dana and Tom with special guests, Alex Doffek and Thomas Baches, redo their episode of Back to the Future from Season 1. Back to the Future (1985): written and directed by Robert Zemeckis with Bob Gale, cinematography by Dean Cundey, music by Alan Silvestri, starring Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, and Crispin Glover.

Plot Summary: In 1985, Marty McFly, an average teenager, finds himself accidentally embarking on the most extraordinary adventure of his life. Through a twist of fate, he ends up transported back to the year 1955 in a time-traveling DeLorean. As he navigates the charming yet unfamiliar world of the 1950s, Marty must ensure his parents still fall in love, overcoming the odds of high school drama and the villainous Biff Tannen.

With the clock ticking, Marty races against time, seeking Doc Brown's help to harness the power of a lightning strike to fuel the DeLorean and propel him back to the future. Through humor, heart, and a pulse-pounding sense of adventure, "Back to the Future" weaves a timeless story of self-discovery, love, and the extraordinary impact one person can have on the course of history.
