@@billyfoster3223 Yeah I feel that 1960 was the jet age, the television age and the nuclear age, and the beginning of of the space age, while the industrial revolution was still in progress in 1900. So much changed between the Victorian era and 1960. Not much has changed since 1960 apart from the internet and popular culture. We havent even been back to the moon in 50 years
Unless it was an Oscar for special effects it would have been maybe for the time lapse flowers. But, no, that was a friggin' good movie. The fixed location relative to the continuity of time and events and change.
I switch off all the lights in my home, and when the time travel sequences start, all my rooms are filled with the strobe light and fluctuating colours. From outside it looks like my power is shorting and surging... Such magic to be found in this classic piece of cinema. The Time Machine, in its 1960 version, has a unique beauty and granduer, a charm and warmth that is still felt by many despite it being made almost 60 years ago.
ITS MY MOST FAVOURITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME. IVE SEEN BOTH THE TIME MACHINE MOVIES AND I LIKE THIS ONE THE BEST. THE STORY IS SO WELL TOLD. I CAN WATCH THIS OVER AND OVER MANY TIMES WITH SMALL BREAKS IN-BETWEEN.
Every facet of this machine is beautiful. The studded dish, the marble lever with its intricacies, the Victorian painted design on the front of the mainframe. I love it.
Fuggle ... the one in the remake in a way is really spectacular looking with all that crystal looking glass... but I don't like that that movie is supposed to be in New York instead of London ... and as much as I like actor Guy Pearce , I really like Rod Taylor much more in this movie ... and also Yvette Mimieux ... who died this past year . She was also good in the remake of DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY which was here on the tube but you needed earbuds to hear it .
H. G. Wells name is Herbert George Wells. In the book the time traveler is referred to as I since the book is written from the time travelers point of view. So in a way in the book the time traveler is H. G. Wells.
Absolutely. A modern scan from the original 35mm film negative (which is very likely what we see here, just in lower res) looks absolutely gorgeous and much better than most digitally shot movies and shows of today.
Oh man you stole my comment. I watched it for the first time all the way through. A classic. I have to read the book! HG Wells was a genius. THE TIME MACHINNNNNNE!
Love this movie. When the word "Classic" is put forth. This movie comes to mind. It is a classic. Masterful with the music. Pushing it over the cliff. Billiant. Bravo.
The BEST time travel movie of all time. It had warmth, charm and a great cast.BTW, Russell Garcia created the sound of the machine using various musical instruments.
I have also seen this film a number of times! It is well made, but most of all it describes a scenario we are threatened with today when those earning trillions of dollars from creating wars are insane enough to seriously thinking of starting a ww3 against Russia!
@Gael na hÉireann 60 years ago, this was cutting edge ... Handling Race and Nuclear War with the impossibility of Spacetime transmutation... So its a bit shite... Suspension of Belief, isnt it...
So did I. in Vietnam. I was 13. The last sentence haunted me for years : "You see, he has all the time in the world...". And Yvette Mimieux, good Lord, Yvette Mimieux ! I've read somewhere that she has become a very wealthy woman.
“Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?”― Tennessee Williams
All we are is memory. If it could be replaced, we'd think we were someone completely different. in the Larry Niven SF novel "World of Ptaavs," a human telepath makes contact with an alien super-telepath. In the novel, telepathy involved completely absorbing the other party's memories, so when the human and the alien made contact, the human thought he was the alien. The alien was used to sorting out himself from all the thousands of previous contacts it had made, but when the human got all those memories, the strongest memory in the entire pile, human included -- was the alien's. Hijinks ensued.
Terrific classic movie. The book is even better. There are sections of the book where the Time Traveler's description of moving into the far future is so vivid that it gave me chills.
Wow holy crap!!! Movies have certainly changed. Men used to be portrayed as the protectors, and it was ok for them to be portrayed as intelligent. The lead woman role....she’s sensitive, demure, kind hearted, eager to help....the difference is so night and day.
@@stephaniemarie4420 well, the truth is that is understandable that he think that, today most female characthers act as men or have a Anatomy-like male, as if they would like to copy to men itself.

My little brother and I turned our bicycles upside down, resting on the seats and handlebars. We sat wooden Coke-crates in front of it and cranked the pedals by hand to spin the wheel, then sat in front of the back wheels pretending to be operating our own time machines. Nyah.
I liked him in the Twilight Zone episode where he disappears and later in Masquerade where he recruits everyday folks to be spies, it wasn't on long, but the premise was awesome!
Went to the movies with friends to see this. We had seen the previews and couldn't wait to see it. We sat there and were amazed at the story, so different from the book, but, so well done. I was 9.
Rod. Good old Sydney boy. Went to school in Parramatta. Speaks with the former "educated" Australian accent that the ill-informed might mistake for English. Machine Dept: I built one of these things back in the late '60s. The bloody thing blew up! .
I love the way the film emphasises that George is only travelling in time, not space, and this is demonstrated several times as part of the plot where he has to drag the machine backwards or forwards in different times. It really helps to bring a reality to the concept.
Just saw this movie for the first time. Much better than the 2002 version (I like that one too). Just a minor trolling: in 1890s it was easier to build a time machine than a car. Or easier to build a power source to fuel a time machine than a battery for a clock.
A fixed location - the same space - relative to ongoing events and change and the passing of time. The contraption never travels an inch in distance, short of someone hauling or dragging it some way, but, rather, it travels through time in exactly the same spot as it is situated when it is activated..
So what did it look like to someone entering the room while he was traveling? Wouldn't he just seem to be sitting still and frozen in place? After all, the rest of the world was going on around him at normal speed, it just seemed fast to him.
@@ShroomKeppie The contraption must be a high speed device but which also does not move. It moves but without ever relocating. It moves so rapidly that it is there without being there.
@@malcolmmorin yeah, i think you're right ... and as a matter of fact, no time travellers from the future showed up at the party, Stephen W. Hawking invited them to and who wouldn't come?
Referencing this this morning. They had the clock moving forward in the City Chambers as you can see it from outside the library. Felt like this movie...think we might have gone forward from Wednesday!. Just looked up and it was rapidly being reset!. Could do with getting a time machine and going back out of this time we're in at the moment.
Misschien vindt iemand ooit nog een tijdmachine uit zoals George in deze fantastische film. Het mooiste stuk in de film vindt ik het testen van de machine als de kaars snel opbrand, de wekker die snel ronddraait, de slak en openen en sluiten van de bloemen. Maar wat zul je dan echt zien? Eigenlijk denk ik dat George nog weinig ziet bij zijn reist door de tijd. Uren verstrijken in slechts luttele seconden. Het licht van uren wordt in een paar seconden gecomprimeerd zodat de lichtgolven in eerste instantie worden verschoven naar het blauw. Dit is als hij nog maar heel langzaam reist. Ook zal alles er uitgrekt uitzien. Het is alsof het licht naar de machine wordt gezogen. Wanneer George echter nog sneller reist naar de toekomst zijn de lichtgolven zo kort en daardoor ver buiten het zichtbare spectrum. Hij zal daarom met grote waarschijnlijkheid niets meer zien…
I love this movie. It is much better (in 1960 !!!!!! Unbelievable !!!!)than the 2002 with Pierce... But it is not Pierce... The reason is the ridiculous scenario from 2002 by the great grandson of H.G. WELLS, instead of SPIELBERG... What a pity !!!!
Absolutely a classic film watched it at as a child still watch it now at 56 years old and if time allows me hopefully i will enjoy the film for a few more years to come 🙂
I feel like the changes to my room over the years make me think of the travel forward in time scene. I guess the movie has a good point how time changes space.
“Oh. Please! It's not a time machine, if anything; it looks like something that Elton John would drive through the Everglades” -Penny from season 1, episode 14, TBBT.
Isn’t it odd how the quality of the film which was recorded on Cine is so much better than the quality of video which came 20 odd years after well for domestic use anyway.
It is such a shame that H.G Wells died so long before this movie was made, I wonder what he would have thought and maybe appreciate the acknowledgment that they put a nameplate for him just under the control panel.
He has a time machine but his grinder is foot-powered. Rod Taylor's suit, is, however, classic. I'd love to have one like it. Guess I'll have to get my own Time Machine and go back to the late 19th Century for some sophisticated clothing.
I first seen this film when I was about 9 or 10 possibly younger, and eventhough it was before my time I always loved it, and was terrified of the morlocks. So much so, that on a night if i was playing the garden ans the sun shone through the holes in the fence I was adamant it ws the morlocks coming for me. I have watched this film again recently at 35 years old, and now as an adult can apprecite it so much more.
Yeah great movie Interesting when you look at it today 2018 and this was made in 1960 how technology has changed with the portable computer etc how 1960 perceptions of the future, and HG wells' perceptions from 1895, fascinating
True. I love how "primitive" this future vision looks to us. You notice how the furthest it foes is to nuclear war era but not into what the remake/reboot did with the moon base and hologram. Weird, i hate that tho i wish there was a remake that took it from the 60s to the imaginary 5000s or so.
@Sarah There are some unauthorized editions of the novel in which, on his way back from the far future, the Time Traveler stops a few thousand years from now and is captured by a totalitarian regime who has somehow become aware of him and his machine. I forget how he manages to get away from them.

Such an awesome music score. I absolutely loved this movie when I was little.
I grew up with the 2002 film and the original short story. Loved both and now I'll have to find this version too.
Look closely at the time machine. There is a small plate on it just under the control stick. It says manufactured by H George Wells.
So cool to know! Thanks for that tidbit!
A nice nod to the writer & creator of the Time Machine.
The time travelers name in the movie was H. George Wells, although he's called George. Another nod. to H.G. Wells. So, the plate makes sense.

It is called 'Crossing times' and we speak about it here because we are sure that all and only the ones watching this video, adding their comments, share with us the same passion for that magic movie and can understand where we come from...
Inspirational movie. Epic. Timeless.
A madman is so excited of his own creation
The visuals don't hold up, but the acting.. oh my God. He is living it! He is actually living that specific day, that specific instance!
I would use this machine to live in the 90s and 00s
Buttful time machine with wonderfull
Very much to you🥰🥰🥰
