The Time Machine
The film, The Time Machine was adapted from a novel of the same name, written by H. G. Wells.
Can you name some films about time travelling?
Terminator终结者
Hi, Mom 你好,李焕英
If you could take a time travel like Jia ling, which time would you like to go? What would you like to do?
The film Hi, Mom is about a daughter who went back to the 1980s and met her mother, who had died in an accident.
H.G. Wells
(1866–1946)
Well’s contribution was the idea that all of the details in the story should be as closely grounded in reality as possible, with the exception of one element which was fantastical. By having everything else grounded in reality, audiences are more willing to accept the fantastical element as true.
H.G. Wells (1866-1946) is — along with Jules Verne — most often credited with being the inventor of the science fiction genre. He was born in Kent, England.
