A LOT of studio executives passed on this script because they couldn't get past this element, but it's played off so innocently that it's one of the things that gives the movie charm. Lea Thompson deserves a lot of credit for that.
@GaryTongue-zn5diАй бұрын
Wrong! Most passed because they didn't think it was Raunchy ENOUGH. Only Disney passed because of the car "incest". Get your facts straight!
@tomchris60Ай бұрын
You're right. BTTF was written during the raunchy, R-Rated "teenagers get laid" comedies that flooded the market in the early 80's (Porkys, Losin' it..). Studio execs wanted the same.

OK, look. I'm saying this again to those viewers who get all freaked out screaming "incest!". Quit putting what YOU know into the movie characters knowledge. Lorraine just thinks he is some boy. She wouldnt have any clue about the future. How can you not see that? Marty avoids her as best he can because he DOES know. If Marty actually pursued her thru some Oedipal complex, the movie wouldnt have been released. From Gen X: y'all youngins need to take a valium on this issue, really.

It would only be weird if he was into it knowing that's his mother. What makes it funny is that his mother lied and said she never chased boys when she was in her youth. It's basically a parent lying to their children which is always going to be a thing when raising them if certain questions or situations come up.
