Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:04,347 --> 00:00:06,974 -Hi, this is Bob Gale. -And Neil Canton. 2 00:00:07,058 --> 00:00:10,353 We're co-producers, and I'm the co-screenwriter 3 00:00:10,853 --> 00:00:12,855 of Back to the Future I. 4 00:00:14,065 --> 00:00:16,275 We couldn't talk Bob Zemeckis into sitting down 5 00:00:16,359 --> 00:00:18,319 to do scene-specific commentary with us, 6 00:00:18,402 --> 00:00:21,530 so you'll just have to put up with us this time. 7 00:00:22,782 --> 00:00:25,910 And this should be the last commentary that you listen to. 8 00:00:25,993 --> 00:00:28,746 Listen to all the other stuff on the discs first, 9 00:00:28,829 --> 00:00:31,582 'cause we're gonna assume that you watched the documentaries 10 00:00:32,083 --> 00:00:34,835 and listened to the first commentary, so that we don't have to repeat 11 00:00:34,919 --> 00:00:39,215 and make you bored with hearing the same stories you've already heard. 12 00:00:41,884 --> 00:00:45,846 This is a set, obviously, shot on Stage 12 at Universal. 13 00:00:46,972 --> 00:00:51,185 A major pain in the ass to get this shot because of all these clocks 14 00:00:51,268 --> 00:00:53,771 and the intricate camera move. 15 00:00:54,605 --> 00:00:58,192 And it's actually the second beginning of Back to the Future 16 00:00:58,275 --> 00:01:00,736 that Bob Zemeckis and I wrote. 17 00:01:02,196 --> 00:01:05,282 As you heard on the rest of the material, 18 00:01:05,366 --> 00:01:10,579 the original version of the script had a climax in New Mexico 19 00:01:10,663 --> 00:01:12,415 at a nuclear test site, 20 00:01:12,498 --> 00:01:15,835 and the original opening scene took place in a classroom, 21 00:01:15,918 --> 00:01:19,130 where Marty was watching a documentary about that. 22 00:01:22,717 --> 00:01:26,387 We actually built a classroom set where we were gonna shoot that, 23 00:01:26,470 --> 00:01:29,265 and after we recast Michael J. Fox 24 00:01:29,348 --> 00:01:32,017 and were trying to figure out ways to cut money, 25 00:01:32,101 --> 00:01:35,563 Bob and I realized that we didn't need that scene. 26 00:01:36,313 --> 00:01:38,816 It was not information that we needed, 27 00:01:38,899 --> 00:01:44,321 and we concocted this sequence with the set that we already knew that we had. 28 00:01:45,072 --> 00:01:47,032 That would be cheaper to do, 29 00:01:47,116 --> 00:01:50,995 and since we were only shooting half-days with Michael J. Fox, 30 00:01:51,078 --> 00:01:53,122 this shot took about a half a day to do. 31 00:01:53,205 --> 00:01:56,292 We didn't have to have Michael here to do that. 32 00:01:58,210 --> 00:02:03,299 This is Deborah Harmon on television. Bob and I worked with her on Used Cars, 33 00:02:03,674 --> 00:02:07,970 and she came in to do this uncredited as a personal favor to us. 34 00:02:08,053 --> 00:02:12,641 However, officials now attribute the discrepancy to a simple clerical error. 35 00:02:13,017 --> 00:02:16,437 The FBI, which is investigating the matter, had no comment. 36 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,024 One of the things that this scene is doing, of course, 37 00:02:20,107 --> 00:02:23,694 is giving us information about Dr. Emmett Brown. 38 00:02:26,405 --> 00:02:29,617 We're not gonna see Doc Brown for a good 20 minutes into the movie, 39 00:02:29,700 --> 00:02:34,663 but by seeing all this gadgetry and craziness, 40 00:02:34,747 --> 00:02:37,792 you get a complete sense of who the guy is, 41 00:02:37,875 --> 00:02:42,797 and you'll be interested to find out what kind of a character he is. 42 00:02:52,973 --> 00:02:56,560 Also I should mention that the opening with all the clocks 43 00:02:56,644 --> 00:02:59,730 is either an homage or a rip-off of the opening 44 00:02:59,814 --> 00:03:03,150 of the George Pal movie The Time Machine, 45 00:03:03,234 --> 00:03:06,445 which starts with a whole bunch of clocks, as well. 46 00:03:06,862 --> 00:03:08,864 Einstein, come here, boy. 47 00:03:09,573 --> 00:03:11,492 What's going on? God. 48 00:03:13,118 --> 00:03:14,286 Jesus! 49 00:03:14,912 --> 00:03:18,165 That is disgusting. Where the hell is he? 50 00:03:20,668 --> 00:03:21,978 Now, when you're watching the movie, 51 00:03:22,002 --> 00:03:24,880 you don't really know anything about what it's about, 52 00:03:24,964 --> 00:03:28,551 except for the fact that you've already seen the commercials and so forth. 53 00:03:28,634 --> 00:03:32,721 But putting the plutonium down there and showing where it was 54 00:03:32,805 --> 00:03:36,016 is a way to keep you interested and let you know 55 00:03:36,100 --> 00:03:39,770 that something major is gonna happen a little bit later on. 56 00:03:52,491 --> 00:03:57,079 You may have noticed on one of those gauges, it said, "CRM 114." 57 00:03:57,580 --> 00:04:03,711 One of Bob and my favorite movies was Dr. Strangelove, is still Dr. Strangelove, 58 00:04:03,794 --> 00:04:08,382 and CRM 114 is a direct reference to that movie. 59 00:04:19,727 --> 00:04:21,854 We blew Michael back, right? 60 00:04:21,937 --> 00:04:24,064 -Yes, that was Michael. -That's not a stuntman. 61 00:04:24,148 --> 00:04:25,774 That was Michael. 62 00:04:31,405 --> 00:04:36,201 And my recollection is that we had some kind of promotional deal 63 00:04:36,285 --> 00:04:38,913 with whatever company made these sunglasses. 64 00:04:38,996 --> 00:04:42,958 It's the only time in the movie you see him wearing sunglasses, 65 00:04:43,334 --> 00:04:48,380 and we put them in here to do some kind of contractual obligation, 66 00:04:48,464 --> 00:04:50,090 and you never see them again, 67 00:04:50,174 --> 00:04:54,386 because shooting with mirrored sunglasses is a major pain in the ass. 68 00:04:55,346 --> 00:04:56,986 -Where are you? -Thank God I've found you. 69 00:04:57,014 --> 00:04:59,433 Listen, can you meet me at Twin Pines Mall tonight at 1:15? 70 00:04:59,516 --> 00:05:01,328 I made a major breakthrough, and I'll need your assistance. 71 00:05:01,352 --> 00:05:03,646 -Wait a minute. 1:15 in the morning? -Yeah. 72 00:05:03,729 --> 00:05:05,397 Doc, what's going on? 73 00:05:05,481 --> 00:05:07,441 -Where you been all week? -Working. 74 00:05:07,524 --> 00:05:10,694 -Where's Einstein? Is he with you? -Yeah, he's right here. 75 00:05:10,778 --> 00:05:12,488 You know, Doc, you left your equipment on. 76 00:05:12,571 --> 00:05:14,698 This was a complete four-walled set, 77 00:05:14,782 --> 00:05:18,202 and we could move out any wall that we needed to. 78 00:05:18,285 --> 00:05:22,331 And our property people had a great time, and set decorators had a great time, 79 00:05:22,414 --> 00:05:27,002 just finding any kind of junk that they could to load up the set with. 80 00:05:28,003 --> 00:05:33,342 Jukebox, there's a canoe in here, there's a couple of animal heads, I think. 81 00:05:34,385 --> 00:05:36,470 They just scrounged everything they could find 82 00:05:36,553 --> 00:05:38,806 out of the prop and set-decorating department 83 00:05:38,889 --> 00:05:40,766 and stuck it in here. 84 00:05:41,350 --> 00:05:46,188 The idea, of course, being that, when Doc Brown's mansion burned down, 85 00:05:46,271 --> 00:05:49,566 which you saw earlier in the scene on the newspaper, 86 00:05:49,650 --> 00:05:53,404 Doc salvaged everything that he could and stuck it here in his garage. 87 00:05:53,487 --> 00:05:58,575 It's where he lives, in the garage, also. A section of it is his bedroom. 88 00:05:59,660 --> 00:06:01,620 He keeps the plutonium under his bed there, 89 00:06:01,704 --> 00:06:04,456 which, of course, is where anyone would keep plutonium. 90 00:06:04,540 --> 00:06:05,749 I would. 91 00:06:11,588 --> 00:06:16,176 The garage there was just a flat that we put next to this Burger King, 92 00:06:16,260 --> 00:06:19,054 which is on Victory Boulevard in Burbank. 93 00:06:19,888 --> 00:06:23,684 Again, we had some kind of a tie-in with Burger King on this, 94 00:06:23,767 --> 00:06:26,645 and the deal was... I don't think they gave us any money, 95 00:06:26,729 --> 00:06:30,315 but my recollection is they let us shoot there for free, 96 00:06:30,399 --> 00:06:32,192 which was something. 97 00:06:34,111 --> 00:06:37,906 The guy who's driving the Jeep there is our stunt coordinator Walter Scott, 98 00:06:37,990 --> 00:06:41,243 and this, of course, is the back lot at Universal. 99 00:06:43,871 --> 00:06:46,623 Walter is somebody that Bob and I met 100 00:06:46,707 --> 00:06:50,335 during the production of 1941, and again on Used Cars. 101 00:06:51,378 --> 00:06:54,465 He was not our first choice for stunt coordinator. 102 00:06:54,548 --> 00:06:57,968 We tried to get Terry Leonard, who we'd worked with many times before, 103 00:06:58,052 --> 00:07:02,056 but Terry was unavailable and said, "Use Walter. Walter will do a great job." 104 00:07:02,139 --> 00:07:04,224 And Terry was right, he did. 105 00:07:04,308 --> 00:07:07,061 The high school was in Whittier. It's Whittier High School. 106 00:07:07,144 --> 00:07:08,854 Richard Nixon's alma mater. 107 00:07:09,146 --> 00:07:10,439 Doc? 108 00:07:11,482 --> 00:07:14,401 Strickland there is played by James Tolkan. 109 00:07:15,110 --> 00:07:16,653 Terrific actor. 110 00:07:17,529 --> 00:07:21,742 Bob and I noticed him and were impressed by him 111 00:07:21,825 --> 00:07:23,911 in a movie called Prince of the City, 112 00:07:23,994 --> 00:07:27,539 where he plays a really tough New York City cop 113 00:07:27,623 --> 00:07:31,752 or police commissioner or something. And he was a joy to work with. 114 00:07:32,711 --> 00:07:36,298 You got a real attitude problem, McFly. You're a slacker. 115 00:07:36,548 --> 00:07:40,677 You remind me of your father when he went here. He was a slacker, too. 116 00:07:40,761 --> 00:07:42,846 Can I go now, Mr. Strickland? 117 00:07:42,930 --> 00:07:46,683 I noticed your band is on the roster for the dance auditions after school today. 118 00:07:46,767 --> 00:07:49,186 Why even bother, McFly? You don't have a chance. 119 00:07:49,269 --> 00:07:51,063 You're too much like your old man. 120 00:07:51,146 --> 00:07:55,192 No McFly ever amounted to anything in the history of Hill Valley. 121 00:07:57,152 --> 00:07:59,321 Yeah, well, history is gonna change. 122 00:08:02,116 --> 00:08:05,577 That's Huey Lewis, if you weren't paying any attention. 123 00:08:06,537 --> 00:08:10,457 And this was shot at the Burbank Community Center on... 124 00:08:10,874 --> 00:08:14,502 -What street was that on, Neil? Riverside? -Yeah, I think it's Riverside. 125 00:08:14,585 --> 00:08:17,213 -Alameda? Something like that. -Right. 126 00:08:18,714 --> 00:08:20,341 One, two, three. 127 00:08:24,053 --> 00:08:28,224 The guy playing guitar there was Michael J. Fox's guitar instructor. 128 00:08:29,100 --> 00:08:32,019 We put him in the movie, 'cause... Why not? 129 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:40,987 Okay, that's enough. 130 00:08:41,445 --> 00:08:46,826 My recollection is that this idea that they get rejected by playing too loud 131 00:08:46,909 --> 00:08:50,079 -was Huey Lewis' idea. -That's right. It was Huey. 132 00:08:50,288 --> 00:08:54,250 It's the stupidest reason to reject anybody, and of course... 133 00:08:54,333 --> 00:08:56,019 But I think it's something that actually happened to him. 134 00:08:56,043 --> 00:08:58,588 -Yeah, that's right. -One time in his career. 135 00:09:00,298 --> 00:09:03,050 Here, of course, we're setting up Goldie Wilson, 136 00:09:03,134 --> 00:09:05,011 who we're gonna meet in a little while. 137 00:09:05,094 --> 00:09:09,182 Now, interestingly enough, Claudia Wells here, who plays Jennifer, 138 00:09:10,224 --> 00:09:14,103 we had originally cast her as Jennifer before we had cast Marty. 139 00:09:14,187 --> 00:09:15,455 This audition tape of yours is great. 140 00:09:15,479 --> 00:09:17,166 You've gotta send it in to the record company. 141 00:09:17,190 --> 00:09:20,276 As you know, it took us a long time to finally get to the point 142 00:09:20,359 --> 00:09:22,570 where we cast Eric Stoltz as Marty, 143 00:09:22,653 --> 00:09:26,365 and we pushed the start date back several times. 144 00:09:26,824 --> 00:09:32,121 By the time we had readjusted our schedule, Claudia was no longer available 145 00:09:32,205 --> 00:09:33,664 to play Jennifer, 146 00:09:33,748 --> 00:09:37,627 so we had to recast her with an actress named Melora Hardin. 147 00:09:38,461 --> 00:09:42,632 And Melora Hardin was a couple of inches taller than Michael J. Fox, 148 00:09:43,466 --> 00:09:46,677 so when Michael J. Fox got put in the movie, 149 00:09:47,678 --> 00:09:51,224 a lot of people on the crew, particularly, interestingly enough, the women, 150 00:09:51,307 --> 00:09:53,559 felt that it was not a good image 151 00:09:53,643 --> 00:09:58,356 to have Marty's girlfriend be three or four inches taller than he was. 152 00:09:58,606 --> 00:10:02,568 And it was... One of the hardest things I had to do was to fire Melora Hardin. 153 00:10:02,652 --> 00:10:06,614 She'd never even worked a day on the movie and she hadn't done anything wrong, 154 00:10:06,697 --> 00:10:08,199 but that's what happened. 155 00:10:08,282 --> 00:10:12,995 And, of course, with the new schedule now with Michael J. Fox, 156 00:10:13,579 --> 00:10:18,125 Claudia Wells was available, so she came back and played Jennifer, 157 00:10:18,209 --> 00:10:20,795 as we had originally wanted. 158 00:10:21,879 --> 00:10:24,757 I mean, look, I think the woman was born a nun. 159 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,343 She's just trying to keep you respectable. 160 00:10:27,426 --> 00:10:29,595 Well, she's not doing a very good job. 161 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:30,888 Terrible. 162 00:10:31,264 --> 00:10:33,224 You'll notice the clock tower back there, 163 00:10:33,307 --> 00:10:37,103 the ledge that Doc Brown is gonna walk on, later on, 164 00:10:37,186 --> 00:10:39,021 is completely intact. 165 00:10:39,563 --> 00:10:41,941 Thirty years ago, lightning struck that clock tower... 166 00:10:42,024 --> 00:10:47,321 This is the vision of time travel that Bob and I came up with, 167 00:10:47,405 --> 00:10:52,326 where you can change things. So, in this version of the world, 168 00:10:52,535 --> 00:10:55,288 Doc Brown was never out there on that ledge, 169 00:10:55,371 --> 00:10:57,456 so it is completely intact. 170 00:10:57,623 --> 00:10:59,685 And of course, at the end of the movie, when we're back here, 171 00:10:59,709 --> 00:11:01,919 you'll see that it is broken, 172 00:11:02,128 --> 00:11:05,381 and it's also broken in Back to the Future Part II. 173 00:11:05,548 --> 00:11:07,925 -It's my dad. I've got to go. -Right. 174 00:11:08,009 --> 00:11:09,552 I'll call you tonight. 175 00:11:10,177 --> 00:11:13,264 Aerobics, of course, was a big craze in the '80s, 176 00:11:13,597 --> 00:11:18,477 and we always tried to find something that we could do on the back lot 177 00:11:18,561 --> 00:11:22,481 that we were gonna change that would be an interesting contrast 178 00:11:22,565 --> 00:11:24,692 between the '80s and the '50s. 179 00:11:25,276 --> 00:11:27,486 So, the cafe became aerobics. 180 00:11:27,903 --> 00:11:32,074 If we were doing it today, it would probably have been a Starbucks. 181 00:11:33,701 --> 00:11:37,413 And Orgy American Style playing there at the Essex Theater. 182 00:11:39,582 --> 00:11:41,727 Not actually sure if that's the title of the real movie, 183 00:11:41,751 --> 00:11:44,211 -but it probably is. -I don't know. 184 00:11:46,589 --> 00:11:48,507 When the movie played in Australia, 185 00:11:48,591 --> 00:11:51,844 Michael J. Fox had to do a public service announcement 186 00:11:51,927 --> 00:11:54,180 for Australian television 187 00:11:54,263 --> 00:11:58,934 telling kids not to ride off the back of cars on their skateboards. 188 00:12:00,227 --> 00:12:03,064 They were, I guess, a little bit behind us in Australia, 189 00:12:03,147 --> 00:12:06,359 and kids hadn't even figured out that you could do that, 190 00:12:06,442 --> 00:12:10,321 and then, of course, we had to tell them that it was dangerous. 191 00:12:11,113 --> 00:12:14,033 This street is in Arleta, 192 00:12:15,368 --> 00:12:19,246 -although this shot right here is on set. Yes. -It's on a stage. 193 00:12:19,330 --> 00:12:23,793 The first shot, where the truck comes down the street, is in Arleta. 194 00:12:23,876 --> 00:12:25,336 -Blind spot? -I could've been killed. 195 00:12:25,419 --> 00:12:28,506 And here we have Crispin Glover as George 196 00:12:28,589 --> 00:12:31,801 and Tom Wilson as Biff in their makeup. 197 00:12:32,718 --> 00:12:34,136 Hi, Son. 198 00:12:34,804 --> 00:12:37,348 You'll find on the DVD some makeup tests, 199 00:12:37,431 --> 00:12:41,852 and we did a lot of tests to try to figure out how we were gonna light the makeup, 200 00:12:41,936 --> 00:12:45,231 so that it wouldn't look too makeup-y. 201 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:52,238 And this was a combination of latex devices and the actors' own flesh. 202 00:12:54,198 --> 00:12:56,409 By the time we did Back to the Future II, 203 00:12:56,492 --> 00:12:59,370 there had been advances in latex technology, 204 00:12:59,912 --> 00:13:04,333 where all the old age makeup was in latex, but here it was a combination 205 00:13:04,417 --> 00:13:09,088 of partially latex and appliances, and partially them. 206 00:13:09,171 --> 00:13:13,092 Do you realize what would happen if I hand in my reports in your handwriting? 207 00:13:13,175 --> 00:13:16,595 If I recall correctly, it was Ken Chase who created the makeup. 208 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:17,847 That's right. 209 00:13:19,390 --> 00:13:21,183 Ken had done Roots. 210 00:13:22,268 --> 00:13:24,228 He had done a lot of interesting makeup on Roots, 211 00:13:24,311 --> 00:13:27,606 and that's the reason that we hired him. 212 00:13:28,190 --> 00:13:30,025 Not too early. I sleep in Saturday. 213 00:13:30,109 --> 00:13:32,194 McFly, your shoe's untied. 214 00:13:32,528 --> 00:13:35,948 Don't be so gullible, McFly. Got the place fixed up nice. 215 00:13:36,031 --> 00:13:40,953 On the other commentary, I think we talk about how it was an unusual choice 216 00:13:41,036 --> 00:13:44,957 for us to use the same actors playing themselves old and young. 217 00:13:45,749 --> 00:13:50,212 It's still not done all that often, but we felt that it was critical 218 00:13:50,296 --> 00:13:55,092 that the audience would appreciate what happens to these characters 219 00:13:55,176 --> 00:14:00,639 by seeing the same actors play them in all their incarnations. 220 00:14:00,723 --> 00:14:04,935 I know what you're going to say, Son, and you're right. You're right. 221 00:14:06,479 --> 00:14:10,357 This greasy hair look that Crispin has is great. 222 00:14:10,441 --> 00:14:14,528 We did a number of tests trying to figure out what we were gonna do with his hair, 223 00:14:14,612 --> 00:14:17,781 and this just turned out to be the ticket. 224 00:14:19,408 --> 00:14:22,077 I mean, he wrecked it. He totaled it. 225 00:14:22,995 --> 00:14:25,080 I needed that car tomorrow night, Dad. 226 00:14:25,164 --> 00:14:27,333 Do you have any idea how important this was to me? 227 00:14:27,416 --> 00:14:28,459 Do you have any clue? 228 00:14:28,542 --> 00:14:31,212 I know, and all I can say is, I'm... 229 00:14:31,754 --> 00:14:33,214 I'm sorry. 230 00:14:33,506 --> 00:14:35,883 Believe me, Marty, you're better off 231 00:14:35,966 --> 00:14:38,928 without having to worry about all the aggravation... 232 00:14:39,428 --> 00:14:44,558 Now, this peanut brittle gag here is the payoff of a scene that got cut out 233 00:14:44,642 --> 00:14:48,687 in which, after Biff leaves, a neighbor comes by 234 00:14:48,771 --> 00:14:50,332 with his daughter selling peanut brittle, 235 00:14:50,356 --> 00:14:53,484 and George ends up buying a whole case of peanut brittle, 236 00:14:53,567 --> 00:14:55,945 and that's what he's having for dinner. 237 00:14:56,070 --> 00:14:58,531 We're going to have to eat this cake by ourselves. 238 00:14:58,614 --> 00:15:00,991 Your Uncle Joey didn't make parole again. 239 00:15:03,369 --> 00:15:06,705 I think it would be nice if you all dropped him a line. 240 00:15:06,789 --> 00:15:08,582 Uncle "Jailbird" Joey? 241 00:15:09,500 --> 00:15:12,461 We have a lot of exposition to set up everything that happens 242 00:15:12,545 --> 00:15:17,550 later on in the show, and exposition can be very, very painful, 243 00:15:18,133 --> 00:15:21,720 and you always try to figure out creative ways to get it out there. 244 00:15:21,804 --> 00:15:27,476 I think the most creative piece of exposition is the setup for "Jailbird" Joey, 245 00:15:27,977 --> 00:15:32,106 because the cake gag that sets it up is funny all by itself 246 00:15:32,189 --> 00:15:36,527 and you're completely unaware that it's any sort of a setup whatsoever. 247 00:15:37,152 --> 00:15:40,197 The rest of it is pretty much pure exposition. 248 00:15:40,614 --> 00:15:44,076 The whole story of the Enchantment Under the Sea dance. 249 00:15:44,410 --> 00:15:48,414 And as a writer, you sometimes try to be creative 250 00:15:48,497 --> 00:15:53,961 in how you hide the exposition and make it so that it isn't noticeable, 251 00:15:54,503 --> 00:15:57,256 but sometimes the best thing to do is to just bite the bullet 252 00:15:57,339 --> 00:16:02,511 and have somebody just spit it all out. So, that's what we do. 253 00:16:03,846 --> 00:16:07,891 Well, it'll just happen. Like the way I met your father. 254 00:16:08,767 --> 00:16:11,687 That was so stupid. Grandpa hit him with the car. 255 00:16:12,354 --> 00:16:16,442 Marty's brother and sister, by the way, are Wendie Jo Sperber and Marc McClure, 256 00:16:16,525 --> 00:16:21,614 who are veterans of the Zemeckis-Gale acting repertory company. 257 00:16:21,864 --> 00:16:25,826 We used both of them in both I Wanna Hold Your Hand and Used Cars. 258 00:16:27,369 --> 00:16:30,998 When you enjoy working with an actor, you go back to them 259 00:16:31,081 --> 00:16:32,458 and have them come back again, 260 00:16:32,541 --> 00:16:35,878 because you know that you can depend on them 261 00:16:35,961 --> 00:16:39,715 and you know that you'll have a good time working with them. 262 00:16:41,300 --> 00:16:44,303 Like a little lost puppy, and my heart just went out to him. 263 00:16:44,386 --> 00:16:47,556 Yeah, Mom, we know. You've told us this story a million times. 264 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:48,974 You felt sorry for him, 265 00:16:49,058 --> 00:16:52,144 so you decided to go with him to the Fish Under the Sea dance. 266 00:16:53,270 --> 00:16:58,067 The makeup on Lea Thompson here, Lorraine, is just great. 267 00:16:58,359 --> 00:17:01,236 All puffed up because she's an alcoholic. 268 00:17:05,074 --> 00:17:10,329 And it's quite a contrast to the makeup that Ken created for the very end of the movie. 269 00:17:11,997 --> 00:17:14,166 It was then that I realized 270 00:17:14,249 --> 00:17:17,711 that I was going to spend the rest of my life with him. 271 00:17:24,259 --> 00:17:28,722 Another thing I should say about this scene is that, because of Michael's schedule, 272 00:17:28,806 --> 00:17:33,769 we had to film the coverage before we shot the masters. 273 00:17:33,977 --> 00:17:36,230 We would block the masters at the end of the night 274 00:17:36,313 --> 00:17:37,898 when we were shooting with him 275 00:17:37,981 --> 00:17:40,609 so that everybody would know what their place was, 276 00:17:40,693 --> 00:17:43,862 and then we would put a stand-in there for eye-line, 277 00:17:43,946 --> 00:17:49,493 and Bob would shoot the coverage of everybody else, before Michael came in, 278 00:17:49,576 --> 00:17:52,037 and then, when Michael showed up, we'd shoot the master, 279 00:17:52,121 --> 00:17:54,540 and then Michael's side of the scene. 280 00:17:54,623 --> 00:17:58,544 So, the camera doesn't move around a lot at the dinner table 281 00:17:58,627 --> 00:18:03,882 because that was of necessity. We didn't have Michael to shoot that way. 282 00:18:11,140 --> 00:18:15,310 This mall was a long schlep to get to this location from the studio, 283 00:18:16,019 --> 00:18:19,148 but it was the closest mall that we could find 284 00:18:19,565 --> 00:18:22,943 that had this hill looking down on the parking lot, 285 00:18:23,026 --> 00:18:25,738 which was critical for the sequence at the end of the movie, 286 00:18:25,821 --> 00:18:28,198 when Marty comes back and watches himself. 287 00:18:28,282 --> 00:18:30,993 Hey, Einstein, where's the doc, boy? 288 00:18:33,662 --> 00:18:35,956 We had to schedule the shooting of this scene 289 00:18:36,039 --> 00:18:38,751 to take place after Christmas. 290 00:18:39,334 --> 00:18:43,422 The movie started shooting in November, that was with Eric Stoltz, 291 00:18:44,298 --> 00:18:46,425 and we couldn't shoot at a mall during Christmas 292 00:18:46,508 --> 00:18:50,345 because there were Christmas decorations all over the place 293 00:18:51,013 --> 00:18:55,392 and it was too crowded. It was still a working mall when we shot it, 294 00:18:55,726 --> 00:18:58,896 and we would shoot our close-up coverage first 295 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:04,067 in a very small section of the parking lot that the mall people let us have, 296 00:19:04,526 --> 00:19:08,447 and then by 10:00 at night all the employees were gone 297 00:19:08,530 --> 00:19:10,616 and we could shoot the whole thing. 298 00:19:14,453 --> 00:19:20,292 We started filming this in January 1985, and we filmed a few nights with Eric Stoltz. 299 00:19:20,584 --> 00:19:24,671 It was during the filming of this that we made our casting change, 300 00:19:25,297 --> 00:19:29,551 on a night that Neil will always remember. Tell them about it, Neil. 301 00:19:30,761 --> 00:19:35,557 I had a beeper on and my wife beeped me. She was pregnant, nine months pregnant, 302 00:19:35,641 --> 00:19:39,144 and just after we gave Eric the news 303 00:19:39,228 --> 00:19:42,648 and spoke to the crew and let them know what was going on, 304 00:19:42,731 --> 00:19:45,317 my beeper went off and I went to the payphone, 305 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,045 'cause we didn't have cell phones back then, 306 00:19:47,069 --> 00:19:49,738 and I called my wife and she said the baby was due, 307 00:19:49,822 --> 00:19:51,990 "It's time to come home," and I raced home. 308 00:19:52,074 --> 00:19:54,827 It figures it was the furthest point that I could possibly be. 309 00:19:54,910 --> 00:19:58,539 Raced home and took my wife to the hospital, my daughter was born, 310 00:19:58,622 --> 00:20:02,751 and I came back to work on Monday, was a proud father of a beautiful baby girl, 311 00:20:02,835 --> 00:20:05,587 and had a new actor, Michael J. Fox. 312 00:20:07,965 --> 00:20:09,341 Okay. 313 00:20:10,676 --> 00:20:13,303 Please note that Einstein's clock 314 00:20:13,387 --> 00:20:16,348 is in precise synchronization with my control watch. 315 00:20:16,431 --> 00:20:17,975 -Got it? -Right. Check, Doc. 316 00:20:18,058 --> 00:20:20,435 That insert, I remember, was a pain in the ass to get, 317 00:20:20,519 --> 00:20:22,855 -to have both clocks... -Both clocks at the same time. 318 00:20:22,938 --> 00:20:25,774 ...change at the exact same moment there. 319 00:20:31,113 --> 00:20:33,866 In a couple of these shots in the car with the dog in it, 320 00:20:33,949 --> 00:20:37,911 we actually had a stunt guy wearing a dog costume 321 00:20:39,830 --> 00:20:42,249 who could actually drive the car. 322 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,253 So, the close-ups, where you obviously see it's a dog, 323 00:20:46,336 --> 00:20:47,963 is the real dog, 324 00:20:48,797 --> 00:20:54,678 and anything that was wide like this, where we were afraid you might see the dog, 325 00:20:54,970 --> 00:20:59,141 -was a stuntman... -In a dog's... In a dog's head. 326 00:20:59,975 --> 00:21:02,978 Actually, it was a whole suit. It was a dog suit. 327 00:21:03,061 --> 00:21:05,856 'Cause we all know dogs can't drive cars. 328 00:21:05,981 --> 00:21:09,568 This is, of course, an homage to Disney's The Shaggy Dog. 329 00:21:10,944 --> 00:21:12,988 You're going to see some serious shit. 330 00:21:18,827 --> 00:21:24,082 This, of course, a combination of first unit, second unit and inserts. 331 00:21:25,876 --> 00:21:29,796 Executive producer Frank Marshall was the second unit director, 332 00:21:30,505 --> 00:21:33,634 and he'd go out to the mall 333 00:21:34,092 --> 00:21:37,638 after we were all finished with the storyboards 334 00:21:39,264 --> 00:21:43,518 and the stunt guys, and go out and shoot shots like that. 335 00:21:44,686 --> 00:21:46,915 Then he would complain about how incredibly cold it was out there. 336 00:21:46,939 --> 00:21:47,940 It was cold. 337 00:21:48,023 --> 00:21:50,418 Actually, I think we maybe even had some snow flurries on one day. 338 00:21:50,442 --> 00:21:52,277 I think you're right. 339 00:21:55,113 --> 00:21:57,324 People frequently have asked, 340 00:21:58,617 --> 00:22:01,662 "What's the significance of 88 miles per hour?" 341 00:22:01,745 --> 00:22:05,582 And the only significance to it is that it's easy to remember. 342 00:22:08,794 --> 00:22:10,754 What did I tell you? 343 00:22:10,879 --> 00:22:15,217 Now those fire trails, that was another major pain in the ass. 344 00:22:15,842 --> 00:22:20,889 In the shots where the fire ignites, I think we had to under-crank those. 345 00:22:21,473 --> 00:22:24,851 Some kind of combination of gasoline and pyro fluid. 346 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,064 And our special effects coordinator, Kevin Pike, 347 00:22:29,398 --> 00:22:32,109 always had great theories about why things were gonna work, 348 00:22:32,192 --> 00:22:35,445 but it seemed like eight out of 10 times 349 00:22:35,821 --> 00:22:39,199 the theories needed to go back to the drawing board a little bit. 350 00:22:39,282 --> 00:22:42,553 Yeah. A lot of times we would get the fire lit, and by the time we were ready to roll, 351 00:22:42,577 --> 00:22:45,914 the fire would be out. We'd have to stop everything and start all over again. 352 00:22:46,081 --> 00:22:49,001 I sent him into the future. 353 00:22:49,751 --> 00:22:52,129 One minute into the future, to be exact. 354 00:22:52,963 --> 00:22:57,384 Now, notice the composition that Bob uses, the blocking here, 355 00:22:57,467 --> 00:23:02,639 the disparity in the heights between Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd. 356 00:23:03,390 --> 00:23:06,685 This is one way that Bob came up with to compensate for that, 357 00:23:06,768 --> 00:23:10,022 so you'II notice throughout Back I and Back ll, 358 00:23:10,105 --> 00:23:14,568 Bob uses this blocking a lot, where Christopher Lloyd is walking one way 359 00:23:14,651 --> 00:23:16,337 and Michael J. Fox is walking the other way, 360 00:23:16,361 --> 00:23:18,864 and they're walking back and forth in three-dimensional space. 361 00:23:18,947 --> 00:23:22,576 That's very effective. It's also very dynamic. 362 00:23:42,345 --> 00:23:48,018 I believe this was liquid nitrogen that we had sprayed all over the car to ice it up. 363 00:23:48,477 --> 00:23:51,563 That's right, and it was also a problem keeping it on the car. 364 00:23:51,646 --> 00:23:55,484 It would drip off several times before we were ready to go. 365 00:23:59,696 --> 00:24:02,824 This is the iciest you'll ever see the DeLorean. 366 00:24:03,575 --> 00:24:05,160 You'll notice, as the movie goes on, 367 00:24:05,243 --> 00:24:08,413 when the DeLorean reappears from a time trip, 368 00:24:08,497 --> 00:24:12,793 there's less and less ice on it, and finally, by the time we're into the sequels, 369 00:24:12,876 --> 00:24:17,172 there basically isn't any. I figure we used Mr. Fusion as an excuse 370 00:24:17,255 --> 00:24:19,716 why we weren't gonna have ice on the car anymore, 371 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:24,012 because great idea, great visual, and... 372 00:24:24,429 --> 00:24:27,015 -Hard to do. -Pain in the ass to shoot. 373 00:24:27,099 --> 00:24:29,434 And he's completely unaware that anything happened. 374 00:24:29,518 --> 00:24:32,104 As far as he's concerned, the trip was instantaneous. 375 00:24:32,187 --> 00:24:34,773 That's why his watch is exactly one minute behind mine. 376 00:24:34,856 --> 00:24:37,943 He skipped over that minute to instantly arrive at this moment in time. 377 00:24:38,026 --> 00:24:40,694 -Come here. I'll show you how it works. -All right. 378 00:24:41,862 --> 00:24:45,157 Now, the red, green and yellow of the different time displays 379 00:24:45,241 --> 00:24:49,620 is again another homage to the George Pal Time Machine, 380 00:24:50,079 --> 00:24:56,127 where he had three light bulbs over the time display thing that were in those colors. 381 00:24:56,210 --> 00:25:00,131 Say you want to see the signing of the Declaration of independence. 382 00:25:01,882 --> 00:25:03,259 Or witness the birth of Christ. 383 00:25:03,342 --> 00:25:07,054 This is one of my favorite jokes that nobody ever laughs at, 384 00:25:07,263 --> 00:25:10,808 that Jesus was born on December 25th in the year 0. 385 00:25:14,562 --> 00:25:16,730 Probably still not laughing. 386 00:25:17,064 --> 00:25:20,401 November 5th just happens to be my father's birthday. 387 00:25:20,734 --> 00:25:25,364 My father, I think, believes to this day that this is a great homage to him. 388 00:25:26,365 --> 00:25:31,328 It was just the right day of the week 389 00:25:31,412 --> 00:25:34,456 to make the thing work out right in the script. 390 00:25:34,832 --> 00:25:36,500 And we picked November 391 00:25:36,584 --> 00:25:40,671 because of the time of the year that we were shooting the movie, 392 00:25:41,255 --> 00:25:47,386 and, of course, to make sense that they'd be having things like a school dance at school. 393 00:25:48,137 --> 00:25:50,181 We obviously couldn't have it take place in August, 394 00:25:50,264 --> 00:25:52,850 because there wouldn't be any school. 395 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,396 Things have certainly changed around here. 396 00:25:58,355 --> 00:26:02,443 I remember when this was all farmland as far as the eye could see. 397 00:26:03,110 --> 00:26:05,446 Again, blatant exposition here, 398 00:26:05,863 --> 00:26:09,366 and what takes the curse off of it 399 00:26:09,450 --> 00:26:14,622 is a great actor saying it with a crazed look in his eye. 400 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,542 This is heavy-duty, Doc. This is great. 401 00:26:19,001 --> 00:26:21,545 Does it run on regular unleaded gasoline? 402 00:26:21,629 --> 00:26:25,424 Unfortunately, no. It requires something with a little more kick. Plutonium. 403 00:26:25,883 --> 00:26:27,801 Plutonium. Wait a minute. 404 00:26:28,469 --> 00:26:30,638 Notice Doc's truck there, 405 00:26:31,013 --> 00:26:34,183 E. Brown Enterprises, 24-hour scientific services. 406 00:26:34,975 --> 00:26:40,314 Our thinking was that the folks in Hill Valley, if they needed a scientist day or night, 407 00:26:40,856 --> 00:26:44,485 could simply call Doc Brown and he'd be there in his truck 408 00:26:45,319 --> 00:26:48,989 to do whatever service a scientist would be required for. 409 00:26:50,115 --> 00:26:52,636 So I took their plutonium and, in turn, gave them a shoddy bomb casing 410 00:26:52,660 --> 00:26:54,411 full of used pinball machine parts. 411 00:26:54,495 --> 00:26:56,415 -Come on. Let's get you a radiation suit. -Jesus! 412 00:26:56,497 --> 00:26:57,873 We must prepare to reload. 413 00:26:57,998 --> 00:27:02,169 Now, this plutonium is actually fairly accurate. 414 00:27:02,461 --> 00:27:05,506 I remember John Zemansky, our prop man, 415 00:27:05,965 --> 00:27:09,134 actually had a guy come to the parking lot at Amblin 416 00:27:09,218 --> 00:27:12,388 with some things that looked just like this, 417 00:27:13,138 --> 00:27:17,559 to show us how plutonium would be stored and carted around. 418 00:27:18,352 --> 00:27:23,482 So, for those of you that might be interested to know what plutonium would look like, 419 00:27:24,650 --> 00:27:26,503 I don't actually know if it would be red like that, 420 00:27:26,527 --> 00:27:31,323 but it would be carried around in a case and units like that. 421 00:27:31,407 --> 00:27:35,035 Don't you lose those tapes now. I need that as a record. 422 00:27:35,619 --> 00:27:37,997 Let's put this back here. There we go. 423 00:27:40,332 --> 00:27:42,126 I almost forgot my luggage. 424 00:27:42,209 --> 00:27:44,962 Who knows if they've got cotton underwear in the future? 425 00:27:45,045 --> 00:27:46,797 I'm allergic to all synthetics. 426 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,550 If you've looked at the deleted scenes, 427 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,137 you'll see the scene that we used that suitcase for. 428 00:27:53,804 --> 00:27:59,643 If you haven't looked at the deleted scenes, you can stop the DVD and check it out. 429 00:28:00,602 --> 00:28:02,396 See what you missed. 430 00:28:02,521 --> 00:28:03,647 Doc. 431 00:28:04,773 --> 00:28:07,192 Look me up when you get there. 432 00:28:07,901 --> 00:28:09,528 Indeed, I will. 433 00:28:09,820 --> 00:28:11,905 And Doc talks about going into the future to 434 00:28:11,989 --> 00:28:15,117 find out who wins the next 25 World Series here. 435 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,828 Of course, at the time that Bob and I wrote that, 436 00:28:17,911 --> 00:28:21,623 we had no idea that we'd be doing a World Series gag 437 00:28:21,707 --> 00:28:25,294 in Back to the Future II, but there it is. 438 00:28:25,627 --> 00:28:29,757 What am I thinking of? I almost forgot to bring extra plutonium. 439 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,384 How did I ever expect to get back? One pellet, one trip. 440 00:28:32,468 --> 00:28:34,553 I must be out of my mind. 441 00:28:36,263 --> 00:28:40,184 I was told that when NBC ran this movie recently, 442 00:28:40,267 --> 00:28:42,853 about four or five months ago, 443 00:28:42,936 --> 00:28:46,106 and this is June 2002 we're recording this, 444 00:28:47,441 --> 00:28:53,614 they edited out some or all of the terrorist stuff here. 445 00:28:53,989 --> 00:28:57,326 I guess in the network's desire to be politically correct, 446 00:28:57,409 --> 00:29:02,456 they didn't want to offend any terrorists, be they Libyans or anybody else. 447 00:29:04,291 --> 00:29:07,836 We were ahead of our time with Libyans wanting plutonium. 448 00:29:08,212 --> 00:29:12,800 Actually we weren't. That was something that was pretty topical then and there. 449 00:29:12,883 --> 00:29:15,302 Qaddafi was trying to get a bomb. 450 00:29:15,636 --> 00:29:19,932 Anyway, the moral to that story is, don't watch movies on network television 451 00:29:20,015 --> 00:29:24,770 if you want to see the movies the real way they're supposed to be. 452 00:29:31,068 --> 00:29:32,111 No! 453 00:29:32,194 --> 00:29:35,823 We were criticized for that being too violent 454 00:29:37,324 --> 00:29:41,078 when the movie came out, but it had to be violent, 455 00:29:42,204 --> 00:29:47,793 because we needed to make this incredibly powerful impression on Marty, 456 00:29:47,876 --> 00:29:51,130 so that he would be motivated to write that letter 457 00:29:51,213 --> 00:29:54,216 and want to do something to avert Doc's death. 458 00:29:55,467 --> 00:29:57,428 Damn Soviet gun. 459 00:30:01,098 --> 00:30:02,182 Go! 460 00:30:03,016 --> 00:30:07,104 You can't really hear the dialogue there, but one terrorists says, 461 00:30:07,187 --> 00:30:10,107 "Damn Soviet gun," when the gun jams, 462 00:30:10,190 --> 00:30:12,502 and the other one, when he can't get the car started, he says, 463 00:30:12,526 --> 00:30:14,194 "Damn German car." 464 00:30:21,452 --> 00:30:27,875 Now, story-wise, it was important that Marty goes back in time accidentally. 465 00:30:28,834 --> 00:30:31,336 Bob and I struggled with this for a long time. 466 00:30:31,420 --> 00:30:33,088 Traditionally, in time-travel movies, 467 00:30:33,172 --> 00:30:37,050 the time traveler wants to go travel through time 468 00:30:37,551 --> 00:30:41,597 and does something because he wants to travel through time 469 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:45,309 that messes things up. We didn't want to mess anything up. 470 00:30:45,392 --> 00:30:48,228 Obviously, we wanted to make things turn out better. 471 00:30:48,312 --> 00:30:50,564 And so the solution to that was to make sure 472 00:30:50,647 --> 00:30:54,610 that is was clear that our hero did not want to go back in time, 473 00:30:54,902 --> 00:30:59,948 and once he got back in time, all he wanted to do was get back. 474 00:31:06,288 --> 00:31:10,959 And for you continuity geeks out there that like to find continuity mistakes, 475 00:31:12,252 --> 00:31:14,254 we know that the odometer, 476 00:31:15,756 --> 00:31:19,510 the numbers on the odometer aren't consistent from one shot to the next. 477 00:31:19,593 --> 00:31:21,094 It's a movie. 478 00:31:21,428 --> 00:31:25,307 Don't worry about it. You're supposed to be watching whether the needle hits 88 479 00:31:25,390 --> 00:31:27,684 and not what the odometer says. 480 00:31:33,190 --> 00:31:36,276 This was filmed at the Disney Ranch in Newhall, 481 00:31:38,403 --> 00:31:40,614 at this wonderful barn there. 482 00:31:41,949 --> 00:31:44,243 And that shot was under-cranked. 483 00:31:45,577 --> 00:31:47,663 We shot it a couple of times at different speeds, 484 00:31:47,746 --> 00:31:51,166 and that was the one that was the most effective. 485 00:31:57,339 --> 00:32:01,927 That's the fastest turn-on of lights and moving from upstairs to downstairs 486 00:32:02,010 --> 00:32:04,304 in the history of cinema there. 487 00:32:04,972 --> 00:32:07,349 What is it? What is it, Pa? 488 00:32:08,058 --> 00:32:09,685 Looks like an airplane. 489 00:32:09,768 --> 00:32:14,898 I've a vague recollection that the woman in this scene was late arriving. 490 00:32:15,315 --> 00:32:16,709 We thought maybe she wasn't gonna show up, 491 00:32:16,733 --> 00:32:19,111 and we tried to talk one of the hairdressers... 492 00:32:19,194 --> 00:32:20,594 That's right. Dorothy Byrne, right. 493 00:32:20,654 --> 00:32:23,240 ...into getting dressed, and she was dressed in the outfit... 494 00:32:23,323 --> 00:32:25,301 -And then the actress showed up. -...and then she showed up. 495 00:32:25,325 --> 00:32:26,535 Forgot about that. 496 00:32:26,618 --> 00:32:29,246 That's a fake comic book, by the way. 497 00:32:31,164 --> 00:32:34,251 We made that, obviously, to make it look like the DeLorean, 498 00:32:34,334 --> 00:32:38,088 but it's inspired by EC Comics and Weird Science Comics. 499 00:32:48,098 --> 00:32:51,560 Cows are always good for a laugh, so we have cows. 500 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:56,857 Excuse me. 501 00:33:00,277 --> 00:33:01,612 Sorry about your barn. 502 00:33:05,282 --> 00:33:08,577 It's already mutated into human form!

Why you... 508 00:33:29,222 --> 00:33:32,976 Of course, the twin pines are now a lone pine, 509 00:33:33,935 --> 00:33:37,648 and the payoff for that is, again, at the end of the movie. 510 00:33:37,814 --> 00:33:41,318 All right. All right. Okay, McFly. Get a grip on yourself. 511 00:33:41,443 --> 00:33:43,570 This is a process shot here. 512 00:33:44,780 --> 00:33:46,948 I don't remember whether we actually shot these plates 513 00:33:47,032 --> 00:33:48,301 or whether we found them in stock. 514 00:33:48,325 --> 00:33:50,952 -I think it was stock. -I think we found them in stock. 515 00:33:51,036 --> 00:33:55,499 And this is near Chino, California, 516 00:33:57,084 --> 00:33:59,836 about an hour and 20 minute drive from the studio. 517 00:33:59,920 --> 00:34:02,881 This was a really tough location to find. 518 00:34:02,964 --> 00:34:08,512 Just to find a big, vast section of farmland like this close to Los Angeles. 519 00:34:10,180 --> 00:34:11,848 It's probably not farmland anymore. 520 00:34:11,932 --> 00:34:15,143 It's probably all housing and condos and stuff. 521 00:34:17,771 --> 00:34:21,024 But the weather gods were certainly on our side when we shot this, 522 00:34:21,108 --> 00:34:24,444 'cause we had to bus the crew way the hell out here, 523 00:34:25,737 --> 00:34:28,907 and we couldn't have asked for a better day. 524 00:34:29,449 --> 00:34:31,451 Don't stop, Wilbur! Don't! 525 00:34:32,077 --> 00:34:34,788 Originally in the script, the housing development 526 00:34:34,871 --> 00:34:38,417 was gonna be under construction, but that was too expensive to do, 527 00:34:38,500 --> 00:34:43,338 so the construction became simply a billboard and... 528 00:34:43,547 --> 00:34:46,383 I think we even scouted some sites that were under construction. 529 00:34:46,466 --> 00:34:51,430 Right, and there was not a sense of big open space like we had here, 530 00:34:52,139 --> 00:34:54,891 so we decided that the billboard would work, 531 00:34:54,975 --> 00:34:57,894 and certainly, it's absolutely as effective. 532 00:35:09,698 --> 00:35:12,159 This is probably impossible to do, 533 00:35:14,453 --> 00:35:19,499 for him to actually get the car back there like that with it dead, but it's a movie. 534 00:35:21,543 --> 00:35:23,545 Solves a lot of problems. 535 00:35:33,054 --> 00:35:36,141 I don't remember whether Miller gave us any money 536 00:35:36,224 --> 00:35:40,312 for putting their truck there, but they did give us free beer, so... 537 00:35:40,395 --> 00:35:41,855 Gave us product, right. 538 00:35:42,689 --> 00:35:46,359 On Fridays everybody got to go home with a couple of beers. 539 00:35:47,569 --> 00:35:51,281 You know, on Friday, that was pretty important for the crew. 540 00:35:55,494 --> 00:35:58,955 This was a gag that Bob came up with right on the spot. 541 00:36:00,165 --> 00:36:03,460 There was one gas station attendant in uniform, 542 00:36:04,336 --> 00:36:09,758 and Bob saw that and suddenly said, "Wait, I know a great gag we gotta do," 543 00:36:10,675 --> 00:36:14,221 and he made Deborah Scott, our costume designer, 544 00:36:14,554 --> 00:36:18,809 go scour through the studio to find three more costumes like that. 545 00:36:19,476 --> 00:36:21,478 That's a great gag, gets a big laugh. 546 00:36:21,561 --> 00:36:24,147 I think we also shot this sequence on a Saturday, as I recall, 547 00:36:24,231 --> 00:36:26,775 -'cause of Michael's television schedule. -Right. 548 00:36:26,858 --> 00:36:30,821 And so we needed daytime work. We couldn't get him except on a Saturday, 549 00:36:30,904 --> 00:36:32,948 and it turned out it was a beautiful day with... 550 00:36:33,031 --> 00:36:36,326 -Yeah, with these big clouds. -Big clouds and blue sky and all, so... 551 00:36:36,409 --> 00:36:39,162 -Today, of course... -...gave it a real '50s feel. 552 00:36:39,246 --> 00:36:43,500 ...you'd put that sky in digitally if you didn't have the sky that you wanted. 553 00:36:43,583 --> 00:36:46,920 Right. But you'd still have to shoot it on Saturday. 554 00:36:47,212 --> 00:36:49,506 The future is in your hands. 555 00:36:49,589 --> 00:36:53,426 If you believe in progress, re-elect Mayor Red Thomas. 556 00:36:54,803 --> 00:36:59,266 The picture of Red Thomas there, that was Hal Gausman, our set decorator. 557 00:37:01,685 --> 00:37:04,729 No clearance is necessary when you use pictures of the crew for those things, 558 00:37:04,813 --> 00:37:06,731 so that's what we did. 559 00:37:09,943 --> 00:37:13,363 And it's a testament to Larry Paull's production design here 560 00:37:13,446 --> 00:37:18,577 that everybody on the crew said that this street reminded them of where they grew up, 561 00:37:19,286 --> 00:37:23,665 whether it was a suburb or a small town or bigger city. 562 00:37:26,418 --> 00:37:31,631 This is one of the few interior-exterior sets on the Universal back lot, 563 00:37:32,007 --> 00:37:35,302 and it's been used in countless Universal movies. 564 00:37:35,510 --> 00:37:38,263 -What? -What's with the life preserver? 565 00:37:39,097 --> 00:37:42,392 I think this was used as the drugstore in The Sting. 566 00:37:43,435 --> 00:37:45,061 It might've been. 567 00:37:45,979 --> 00:37:49,399 That's Norm Alden there, well-known character actor. 568 00:37:49,733 --> 00:37:51,067 Brown. 569 00:37:53,445 --> 00:37:54,654 Great. You're alive. 570 00:37:55,322 --> 00:37:59,951 Phone book gives you the impression that Hill Valley's a much bigger area 571 00:38:00,035 --> 00:38:03,914 than it probably is. The Browns are a pretty big family, 572 00:38:03,997 --> 00:38:07,834 judging by how many of them there are in the phone book there. 573 00:38:15,592 --> 00:38:20,180 -Do you know where 1640 Riverside... -Are you going to order something, kid? 574 00:38:21,097 --> 00:38:24,351 I remember that Pepsi, who we had a deal with, 575 00:38:25,352 --> 00:38:28,813 asked us to take out the reference to Tab in the movie. 576 00:38:29,689 --> 00:38:32,609 We told them nothing doing. It was too good of a joke. 577 00:38:32,692 --> 00:38:35,362 Just give me something without any sugar in it, okay? 578 00:38:35,987 --> 00:38:39,282 Of course, you probably don't know what Tab is anymore. 579 00:38:39,366 --> 00:38:41,826 It was a very popular diet drink, 580 00:38:41,910 --> 00:38:46,164 mostly in the '70s and, in fact, by 1985, when the movie came out, 581 00:38:46,873 --> 00:38:48,667 Tab was pretty well history, 582 00:38:48,750 --> 00:38:51,878 but it was too good of a joke for us to not use. 583 00:38:53,004 --> 00:38:55,507 I'm talking to you, McFly, you Irish bug! 584 00:38:55,590 --> 00:38:59,594 -Hey, Biff.

We're in pre-production, this is 1984, 1004 01:06:11,014 --> 01:06:16,394 and skateboarding is not the popular thing that it is now. 1005 01:06:17,020 --> 01:06:21,065 Nobody... There were no skateboarders who had any name recognition 1006 01:06:21,149 --> 01:06:22,942 the way there are today. 1007 01:06:23,026 --> 01:06:27,363 So, I decided to go down to Venice Beach on a Sunday 1008 01:06:27,989 --> 01:06:32,327 because every crazy person that has a weird skill 1009 01:06:32,410 --> 01:06:36,122 is always hanging around Venice on a Sunday afternoon. 1010 01:06:36,205 --> 01:06:39,459 So I'm walking around, and there were two guys 1011 01:06:39,542 --> 01:06:44,297 doing skateboard demonstrations. They were terrific. I watched them for a while 1012 01:06:44,714 --> 01:06:48,092 and I thought, "These are the guys we need to help us." 1013 01:06:48,176 --> 01:06:52,096 So, I started talking to them, and I felt like the biggest jerk in the world, 1014 01:06:52,180 --> 01:06:54,974 to go up to these guys and say, "Hey, I'm producing this movie 1015 01:06:55,058 --> 01:06:59,896 "and we need some skateboarders." But you have to do that sometimes. 1016 01:07:00,271 --> 01:07:04,484 So that's what I did, and I gave them this big speech about how I'm producing this movie 1017 01:07:04,567 --> 01:07:06,486 and we have this skateboard chase, 1018 01:07:06,569 --> 01:07:09,822 and I'm wondering, "What are these guys gonna say?" 1019 01:07:10,281 --> 01:07:13,785 And one of them pulls out his business card and he says, 1020 01:07:13,868 --> 01:07:18,122 "My agent's name is on this card. Just call her and she'll set it up." 1021 01:07:18,706 --> 01:07:22,877 And it turns out that this guy was...

Why are you so nervous? 1201 01:19:06,871 --> 01:19:08,247 Lorraine. 1202 01:19:09,165 --> 01:19:10,875 Have you ever... 1203 01:19:10,958 --> 01:19:15,588 This was the scene that was too risqué for the Walt Disney Company, 1204 01:19:15,671 --> 01:19:19,467 and was the reason that they would not consider 1205 01:19:20,343 --> 01:19:22,845 having us make this movie for them. 1206 01:19:22,929 --> 01:19:24,180 Sort of. 1207 01:19:24,972 --> 01:19:27,642 I think I know exactly what you mean. 1208 01:19:28,476 --> 01:19:29,769 You do? 1209 01:19:30,269 --> 01:19:32,897 You know what I do in those situations? 1210 01:19:32,980 --> 01:19:35,274 -What? -I don't worry. 1211 01:19:39,654 --> 01:19:43,741 Actually, this is what I was thinking of. This shot here, we shot later. 1212 01:19:43,825 --> 01:19:46,160 -Yes. -This was shot on a stage. 1213 01:19:46,828 --> 01:19:51,040 -Right, 'cause we were missing her reaction. -Her reaction didn't work. 1214 01:19:51,124 --> 01:19:52,834 Or whatever we had. 1215 01:19:53,251 --> 01:19:56,879 This is all wrong. I don't know what it is. 1216 01:19:58,548 --> 01:20:02,009 But when I kiss you, it's like I'm kissing 1217 01:20:03,803 --> 01:20:05,179 my brother. 1218 01:20:05,471 --> 01:20:08,182 I guess that doesn't make any sense, does it? 1219 01:20:08,266 --> 01:20:12,311 Believe me, it makes perfect sense. 1220 01:20:14,105 --> 01:20:15,815 Somebody's coming. 1221 01:20:19,735 --> 01:20:22,947 You caused 300 bucks damage to my car, you son of a bitch. 1222 01:20:23,030 --> 01:20:26,659 We've been asked why the movie is shot 1223 01:20:26,742 --> 01:20:31,038 in the 1:85 aspect ratio as opposed to widescreen, 1224 01:20:31,873 --> 01:20:34,917 and the reason for that decision, which Bob made 1225 01:20:35,001 --> 01:20:38,337 with Dean Cundey, the director of photography... 1226 01:20:38,838 --> 01:20:42,633 Bob had shot Romancing the Stone with Dean Cundey 1227 01:20:43,217 --> 01:20:47,096 before making Back to the Future, and that was shot widescreen, 1228 01:20:47,346 --> 01:20:53,311 and Bob didn't like widescreen because he likes a lot of depth of focus 1229 01:20:53,394 --> 01:20:57,982 when he shoots. This movie is shot with a lot of wide lenses. 1230 01:20:58,566 --> 01:21:03,196 Very rarely did Bob ever use a closer lens than a 29mm. 1231 01:21:03,696 --> 01:21:06,532 Most of it was a 21 or a 24. 1232 01:21:07,074 --> 01:21:10,536 And with an anamorphic widescreen lens, 1233 01:21:10,620 --> 01:21:14,916 you just don't get the depth of focus, ever, 1234 01:21:15,666 --> 01:21:18,294 and Bob likes to have that depth of focus. 1235 01:21:19,295 --> 01:21:22,590 The other reason was that it's not a big movie, 1236 01:21:23,299 --> 01:21:27,220 and since we couldn't show as much on the sides of the frame 1237 01:21:27,303 --> 01:21:30,723 as you can in a big outdoor movie, we decided 1238 01:21:31,015 --> 01:21:33,684 that there was no point in shooting it in widescreen, 1239 01:21:33,768 --> 01:21:38,231 and the 1:77 format had just been decided as the standard 1240 01:21:38,314 --> 01:21:41,108 for widescreen televisions of the future, 1241 01:21:41,275 --> 01:21:45,029 and we figured that, by shooting it in 1:85, in the end 1242 01:21:45,112 --> 01:21:47,907 more people would see the movie on video than saw in a theater, 1243 01:21:47,990 --> 01:21:50,535 and they would see it much closer to 1244 01:21:50,618 --> 01:21:54,372 what Bob and Dean intended in their framing 1245 01:21:54,830 --> 01:21:58,042 by shooting it in 1:85, than if we'd shot it in widescreen. 1246 01:21:58,125 --> 01:22:00,753 I think you got the wrong car, McFly. 1247 01:22:01,754 --> 01:22:03,798 George, help me! Please! 1248 01:22:03,881 --> 01:22:06,759 Just turn around, McFly, and walk away. 1249 01:22:07,802 --> 01:22:09,971 -Please, George. -Are you deaf, McFly? 1250 01:22:10,054 --> 01:22:12,139 Close the door and beat it. 1251 01:22:14,725 --> 01:22:18,312 No, Biff.

And it was an airplane engine, 1382 01:32:47,523 --> 01:32:52,361 so imagine that you're standing 50 feet away from an airplane engine, 1383 01:32:52,445 --> 01:32:54,780 and that's what it sounded like, 1384 01:32:54,947 --> 01:32:58,659 but you need an engine that powerful to blow wind that far. 1385 01:32:59,243 --> 01:33:01,787 -Thanks. -Thank you. 1386 01:33:07,001 --> 01:33:09,128 See you in about 30 years. 1387 01:33:10,796 --> 01:33:12,173 I hope so. 1388 01:33:13,799 --> 01:33:15,384 Don't worry! 1389 01:33:16,052 --> 01:33:19,096 As long as you hit that wire with the connecting hook... 1390 01:33:19,180 --> 01:33:23,434 Shooting in the back lot at Universal, it's cold back there at night. 1391 01:33:24,268 --> 01:33:27,230 I don't know how the guys that built Universal figured out 1392 01:33:27,313 --> 01:33:29,357 that it was gonna be one of the... 1393 01:33:29,440 --> 01:33:32,568 Probably the coldest place in Southern California, 1394 01:33:32,652 --> 01:33:36,489 but, man, at 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning we were shooting this stuff, 1395 01:33:36,572 --> 01:33:38,157 we were freezing. 1396 01:33:38,241 --> 01:33:39,784 -Remember Ramon, Neil? -Yeah. 1397 01:33:39,867 --> 01:33:41,827 -The caterer? -With his chili. 1398 01:33:41,911 --> 01:33:45,081 With his chili. One of the weird things that happened. 1399 01:33:45,164 --> 01:33:47,333 We had four people that came down with appendicitis 1400 01:33:47,416 --> 01:33:49,961 during the production of this movie, 1401 01:33:50,336 --> 01:33:55,883 and people started thinking there was something wrong with Ramon's food 1402 01:33:55,967 --> 01:33:58,052 that was the cause of that. 1403 01:33:58,344 --> 01:34:02,223 It wasn't. It was just some really freak coincidence. 1404 01:34:03,933 --> 01:34:08,187 One of the guys was kind enough to have the appendix that he had removed 1405 01:34:08,271 --> 01:34:12,858 put into a glass jar, and he brought it and put it on the craft service table. 1406 01:34:14,694 --> 01:34:16,821 Yeah. That didn't last long, as I recollect. 1407 01:34:16,946 --> 01:34:19,991 You get the cable, I'll throw the rope down to you. 1408 01:34:20,074 --> 01:34:21,867 Right! I got it! 1409 01:34:33,587 --> 01:34:37,008 Figuring out how we were gonna shoot the night sky during this sequence 1410 01:34:37,091 --> 01:34:40,678 was something that we spent a lot of time thinking about. 1411 01:34:41,053 --> 01:34:47,518 ILM would have liked to have done a composite special-effect sky 1412 01:34:47,768 --> 01:34:49,812 for just about every shot, 1413 01:34:51,230 --> 01:34:55,234 but Bob and Dean and I talked about that 1414 01:34:55,651 --> 01:34:59,322 and decided that, if you were really filming during a lightning storm, 1415 01:34:59,405 --> 01:35:04,201 the only time you ever would see the sky was when lightning backlit the clouds. 1416 01:35:04,493 --> 01:35:07,330 You would never see anything in the sky other than that. 1417 01:35:07,413 --> 01:35:09,999 It would always just fall off and be black. 1418 01:35:10,082 --> 01:35:15,004 So we let it be black most of the time, and you only see it when there's lightning, 1419 01:35:15,087 --> 01:35:17,423 and that's what makes it look... 1420 01:35:17,631 --> 01:35:22,094 It looks much better that way than it would if you always saw the clouds. 1421 01:35:22,219 --> 01:35:26,432 -What? -I have to tell you about the future. 1422 01:35:26,515 --> 01:35:30,728 -What? -I have to tell you about the future! 1423 01:35:30,811 --> 01:35:32,772 These tight shots, when Doc's on the ledge, 1424 01:35:32,855 --> 01:35:37,610 we had built that. It was a separate set from the back lot. It was on a stage. 1425 01:35:38,486 --> 01:35:43,491 And we were working, pretty much, noon to midnight, or 2:00 to 2:00, 1426 01:35:43,574 --> 01:35:45,910 depending upon Michael's schedule. 1427 01:35:45,993 --> 01:35:50,081 We started so many days with Chris up on this ledge, waiting to get Michael. 1428 01:35:50,164 --> 01:35:51,207 Right. 1429 01:35:51,290 --> 01:35:54,394 So, every day we'd do a little bit of Chris on the ledge and Michael would show up, 1430 01:35:54,418 --> 01:35:55,937 and we'd go and do the stuff with him. 1431 01:35:55,961 --> 01:35:59,965 You've got less than four minutes. Please, hurry! 1432 01:36:03,511 --> 01:36:08,182 We did put Chris Lloyd up there on the real exterior of the clock tower there 1433 01:36:08,432 --> 01:36:12,144 -for a couple of shots, and that's him there. -There's one. 1434 01:36:17,149 --> 01:36:20,903 And there's a shot coming up. That's the stage, that's fake. 1435 01:36:23,155 --> 01:36:25,467 But we just need a couple of those shots to show him up there 1436 01:36:25,491 --> 01:36:28,202 for you to completely buy the illusion. 1437 01:36:30,996 --> 01:36:34,500 The stuntman that we had doubling Chris Lloyd here was Bob Yerkes, 1438 01:36:34,583 --> 01:36:38,462 who is one of the legends in stunt. 1439 01:36:38,838 --> 01:36:41,382 -He's the inventor of the airbag. -That's right. 1440 01:36:41,465 --> 01:36:44,969 And his family were circus aerialists, 1441 01:36:46,137 --> 01:36:48,931 so Yerkes came by, doing anything... 1442 01:36:49,014 --> 01:36:50,975 Anytime you want to have somebody way up high, 1443 01:36:51,058 --> 01:36:53,519 Bob Yerkes was always the first guy that you'd try to get, 1444 01:36:53,602 --> 01:36:55,729 because he was born to that. 1445 01:37:05,281 --> 01:37:09,827 This stuff here was shot in Griffith Park, my favorite location in the movie, 1446 01:37:09,910 --> 01:37:13,539 'cause it was only five minutes from my house at the time. 1447 01:37:14,331 --> 01:37:16,709 Wait a minute. I got all the time I want. 1448 01:37:16,792 --> 01:37:20,045 I got a time machine. I can just go back early and warn him. 1449 01:37:20,129 --> 01:37:24,967 And we shot this on a Friday night, after Michael finished shooting Family Ties, 1450 01:37:25,259 --> 01:37:29,847 so we started shooting at 10:00 at night and we shot all the way till dawn. 1451 01:37:30,306 --> 01:37:32,725 Engine running. All right. 1452 01:37:35,227 --> 01:37:41,025 No. No, no. Come on. Not this time. Come on. Come on. 1453 01:37:57,958 --> 01:38:01,295 Fact about clocks that I didn't know until we made this movie, 1454 01:38:01,378 --> 01:38:06,091 the number four on the clock is four "I's" 1455 01:38:06,467 --> 01:38:12,723 instead of an "IV" in Roman numerals, and that is apparently a clock tradition. 1456 01:38:15,601 --> 01:38:17,728 And you know what? On the... 1457 01:38:18,062 --> 01:38:21,065 -Yeah, we broke tradition. -That's a mistake. That's right. 1458 01:38:21,148 --> 01:38:24,735 Roman numeral clocks are supposed to have all four lines, 1459 01:38:26,529 --> 01:38:28,531 and here we didn't do it. 1460 01:38:30,574 --> 01:38:32,535 Well, it's too late now. 1461 01:38:51,470 --> 01:38:52,763 Come on. 1462 01:38:54,848 --> 01:38:56,141 Here we go. Here we go. 1463 01:38:56,267 --> 01:39:00,229 Here's another example of movie logic versus real logic. 1464 01:39:00,938 --> 01:39:05,776 The idea that this alarm clock was going to be accurate enough 1465 01:39:06,610 --> 01:39:11,448 to signal Marty to get to the clock tower in time for this lightning strike 1466 01:39:11,532 --> 01:39:17,037 is just a completely ridiculous concept, but nobody thinks about that. 1467 01:39:17,329 --> 01:39:21,083 When is it 10:00? When the clock chimes start chiming, 1468 01:39:21,166 --> 01:39:24,086 or when they finish, or somewhere in between? 1469 01:39:47,526 --> 01:39:49,445 Wonderful editing here. 1470 01:39:49,695 --> 01:39:53,157 Harry Keramidas was the lead editor for this sequence. 1471 01:39:53,574 --> 01:39:57,453 We had two editors. Harry was brought in later when we realized 1472 01:39:57,536 --> 01:40:01,332 how jammed we were gonna be on our post-production schedule, 1473 01:40:01,415 --> 01:40:05,336 and Harry would take one sequence and Artie would take another sequence 1474 01:40:05,419 --> 01:40:09,131 and they would look at each other's work after one had edited, 1475 01:40:09,214 --> 01:40:11,133 so that there was true collaboration, 1476 01:40:11,216 --> 01:40:15,888 and, of course, Bob would work with each editor in great detail 1477 01:40:16,555 --> 01:40:19,475 to get these sequences timed out perfectly. 1478 01:40:24,980 --> 01:40:26,857 By using editing and wide-angle lenses, 1479 01:40:26,940 --> 01:40:31,945 we made that street on the back lot look about five times longer than it really is. 1480 01:40:40,454 --> 01:40:41,830 Doc. 1481 01:40:54,301 --> 01:40:58,597 We looked at a lot of National Geographic footage of lightning bolts 1482 01:40:59,264 --> 01:41:06,105 to get to one that was the model for the big lightning hit, 1483 01:41:06,188 --> 01:41:11,276 described in the script as the biggest bolt of lightning in the history of cinema, 1484 01:41:11,360 --> 01:41:16,448 something like that, and ILM gave it to us in spades. 1485 01:41:26,917 --> 01:41:32,589 The Atomic Kid on the marquee there was a Mickey Rooney movie from 1954 1486 01:41:32,673 --> 01:41:35,175 that took place on a nuclear test site. 1487 01:41:35,259 --> 01:41:40,472 That's the only remnant of the idea that we originally had in the script for that idea. 1488 01:41:46,645 --> 01:41:49,857 And now, as I explained earlier, 1489 01:41:49,940 --> 01:41:53,652 the ledge, you can see, is still broken here 30 years later, 1490 01:41:54,027 --> 01:41:57,781 and the courthouse is now the Department of Social Services. 1491 01:41:59,408 --> 01:42:05,205 Here's the Raisin bus bench that I talked about on the other commentary. 1492 01:42:05,622 --> 01:42:10,544 Product placement that the Raisin board spent $50, 000 for, 1493 01:42:10,627 --> 01:42:15,674 and then we gave them their money back, 'cause it was definitely a rip-off for them. 1494 01:42:19,011 --> 01:42:23,849 There was an old movie theater in Burbank that had been changed into a church, 1495 01:42:24,516 --> 01:42:27,519 and that's how we came up with the idea of making that movie theater 1496 01:42:27,603 --> 01:42:29,480 into a church in 1985. 1497 01:42:35,235 --> 01:42:37,488 All right. Red. 1498 01:42:38,363 --> 01:42:43,035 And I love this, the fact that here's the town square completely dilapidated, 1499 01:42:43,702 --> 01:42:46,538 and Michael says everything looks great. 1500 01:42:49,458 --> 01:42:52,961 And that Bank of America that you just saw in that shot there, 1501 01:42:53,045 --> 01:42:57,382 that was where the bank wanted to put in a working Versateller in the bank, 1502 01:42:57,466 --> 01:43:00,469 and we told them they didn't have to do that. 1503 01:43:09,228 --> 01:43:10,562 Libyans. 1504 01:43:18,737 --> 01:43:23,325 And we're back in the City of Industry at Puente Hills Mall, 1505 01:43:23,408 --> 01:43:26,620 now Lone Pine Mall instead of Twin Pines Mall. 1506 01:43:33,210 --> 01:43:34,253 No! 1507 01:43:35,587 --> 01:43:36,964 You bastard! 1508 01:43:37,047 --> 01:43:39,758 And the two Martys coming up here, 1509 01:43:39,842 --> 01:43:43,220 this was just done with photo doubles. 1510 01:43:45,889 --> 01:43:47,182 There's no special effects here, 1511 01:43:47,266 --> 01:43:52,521 there's no two Michael J.
