"Back to the Future", made in 1985 is a scifi adventure movie.

Directed by Robert Zemeckis, script by Zemeckis and Bob Gale, with Steven Spielberg as producer, starring Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Crispin Glover and Thomas F. Wilson.

The movie is about Marty McFly, a teenager who is sent back in time from 1985 to 1955 by accident. His future parents are still in high school and Marty becomes his future mother's (Lea Thompson's) love interest. Marty has to change history by arranging for his future parents to become romantic and fall in love for each other. With the scientist Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown, he must discover a way to return to 1985, somehow.

The DeLorean Motor Company (DMC) based in Humble, TX, USA, owns all the parts from the original factory in Ireland.

DMC restores, and also builds vehicles which are made to order, including parts and design elements from original DeLorean autos, up to date engine and suspension components and tech.

A variety of DeLorean products have been made by licensed manufacturers including shoes, apparel, toys, models, collectibles, games and various items of bric a brac...

In the Back to the Future movies, Doc Brown's time jumping DeLorean was fed with trash and plutonium pinched from Libyan nationalists who were mighty pissed off about this, once they discovered this .

Escaping from the Libyans (topical!) they arrive in 1955...

While time travel may or may not be actually possible, although there is much conjecture, as in "Why haven't we seen someone from the future yet?"

If time travel is possible in the future, then it would be trivial for people to travel back to tell you about it!

Anyway, just enjoy the fact that DeLorean Motor Company are moving us towards the future, with the DMC-12EV: Without oil, smog, petro rich sheiks, and the wars that seem to be fought over it regularly...
