He wasn't lying. Jack the Ripper was a serial killer at a time when such were relatively unknown, but his impact was relatively minor compared to later killers. He was known to have killed 5 women & suspected of 6 more. Among serial killers, he isn't in the top 100 of the world's most prolific. For that, it takes at least 16 confirmed kills. Even in England, where serial killers are relatively rare, the recordholder is a serial arsonist w/26 confirmed kills.

[@BazukinBelyugovich]

The way Stephenson's and Wells' characters dressed in the film always fascinated me. On one hand, Stephenson was brought up as a 19th-century gentleman from Victorian England, and you can see how he looks in the beginning. But now here, in the late 1970s, he fits in all too well - he can truly unleash his true persona, Jack the Ripper. He loves this new world, this realm of chaos and carnage and fear-mongering, and he slips into a more modern fashion sense perfectly - you never would have been able to tell he was from the Victorian British Empire. Wells' character, though, cannot fit into this world - he is a chivalrous man, fitting better in a 19th-century that was even too immoral for him; and then to see what he had stumbled into - this late 20th century, a bloody and scarred aftermath of so much horror from decades past - he could never have been able to imagine a place like this, even with his incredibly creative mind. As such, he never changes his fashion sense, always remaining in his original Victorian dress - a tweed suit and bow tie - even when no one else wears it. It's really interesting how the way characters dress in a story can be representative of their moral viewpoints - one character fits into to the new world for it's carnage, the other resists it. (BTW, when referring to H. G. Wells, I'm just talking about the character in the movie; I don't really know much about the real-world H. G. Wells.)

[@lysanderofsparta3708]

The real H. G. Wells was not a particularly moral man, at least not with regard to how he conducted his personal life; and he most certainly did not believe in Victorian sexual morality. He was married to his cousin Isabel from 1891 to 1894. He soon divorced her in favor of one of his students Amy Catherine Robbins, whom he nicknamed "Jane" and eventually married in 1895. So, in the movie, H. G. Wells was lying when he told Amy that he was unmarried back in 1893; either that or the writers simply got their facts wrong. All throughout his 32-year marriage to Amy Robbins, which lasted until her death at the age of 55 in 1927, Wells had numerous affairs and fathered several illegitimate children with other women, including Rebecca West (their son was the author Anthony West). Some of his other well known conquests included Dorothy Richardson and Margaret Sanger. After the death of Amy Robbins, Wells had an affair with the mistress of the Russian writer Maxim Gorky and tried to pressure her into marrying him, but she refused. Alas, it would seem that the real H. G. Wells was as much of a compulsive sex addict as Jack the Ripper is shown to be in the movie. If Wells really had traveled to the year 1979 in a time machine, he'd probably be looking to score with some loose women too. A more plausible scenario would have Wells and Stevenson wearing matching John Travolta-style leisure suits and coincidentally bumping into each other at the same disco while trying to pick up the same girl!

Sometimes it is the smallest line deliveries that stick with me. Even when he stands there at the door, stunned, and H.G. asks to come inside, Stevenson's English manners instantly emerge with, "Certainly. Certainly." That's acting.

This movie caught me at just the right time. I was 15 or 16 and watched it on television one afternoon. I was by this time a fan of H. G. Wells, and Arthur C. Clarke, and I was way more of a "slow and brainy" science fiction type while my friends were eating up Star Wars (which I of course enjoyed). Time After Time was just what I needed, it's a good movie that would make a good book. I could appreciate that people were making movies that were more about ideas than special effects. Then, too, this story sucks you right in from the first scene and never lets you go. And what a cast. I really didn't know who Malcolm McDowell was (I hadn't seen A Clockwork Orange yet as its violence was outside my tender sensibilities). So this movie was my introduction to Malcolm McDowell, David Warner, and the extraterrestrially gorgeous Mary Steenbergen. The same writer/director Nicholas Meyer made The Day After and three separate Star Trek movies (II (directed), IV (written), and VI (written/directed)), and they're great movies, too.

[@mindakahn9964]

A brilliant performance. One of my all time favorites. May his memory be a blessing.

[@thecanaryisdead4745]

In 2021, I honestly keep thinking in my mind, how appropriate this one scene in the entire movie makes the statement of the decay of humanity. And how it's almost not even shocking to anyone anymore. Haven't watched in many years, but I just keep recalling him saying he belongs here (1979) more than HG. And to go home. Absolutely the truth. Really this one moment from the film is insane,,, considering it's 41 years ago.

[@BogeyTheBear]

[@mooncove]

Me too. I feel sorry for Jack too! When Wells goes to pull the key out and Jack nods to him ... The first time I saw this back in 1979, David Warner instantly became my favorite actor. Still is. He actually has less screen time than it seems like he does, but his performance is brilliant and unforgettable.

[@mooncove]

BTW, in the DVD commentary, Malcolm McDowell ruins the crying scene a little. It's been a while since I listened to it, but as I recall, the tears are fake. He said Mary Steenbergen had some kind of thing she snuck off to use that makes your eyes tear up. He thought that was cheating but he ended up using it! Don't know about David Warner, but he looked pretty teary too, which is why I felt sorry for him. BTW, in the other commentary by the director, it didn't sound like he liked David Warner very much! When he mentioned him at all, it was to complain about him, like about how he didn't tell him before he signed on for the movie that he'd broken his feet and couldn't run, and how he kept asking if there were going to be "short takes" (i.e., fewer lines to memorize). He also refers to the Ripper character as a "plot device"! If you want to hear good things about Warner, listen to Malcolm McDowell; they were good friends.

[@RWSCOTT]

yah there's a great Comicon interview with both of them and they were very funny together. I do agree tho that Jack IS a plot device. That is, the film is a a romance about Wells meeting the woman of the future that he'd been imagining, with the danger of Jack pushing their level of involvement forward. It's not really a film about catching Jack the Ripper. Wells doesn't really have the skills to do that, even forearmed with future knowledge.

If you never saw this movie, check it out! It’s great and holds up very well. And if you’re a fan of the ‘Back To The Future’ world, you’ll be pleasantly surprised to see one of the main cast members in yet another great time-travel film. The quality of this clip is so much better than the sorry VHS tape we watched over and over! Definitely worth a watch!

This is a Great Movie!!! The Suspense is overwhelming and how it concludes!

I just Love and Admire Malcolm McDowell and David Warner. And both of them have contributed to the Industry and David Warner will be missed.

Is it wrong that I find David Warner scary but incredibly attractive in this?

[@debijones7991]

+shaitarn I don't think so. I also found/find him attractive.

[@thunderbolt2145]

He does have a commanding presence, as well as a good deal of charisma.

_"Is it wrong that I find David Warner scary but incredibly attractive in this?"_ Evil is not always repulsive. That said, those actors who can brilliantly play bad guys tend to be very nice people in real life.
