Back to the Future Part III mixes up sci-fi and the American West to give audiences a thrilling conclusion to the time-traveling trilogy. One thing I love about the Western aspect of the film is that they pay homage to John Ford. Rick Carter has his work cut out by designing the production in Monument Valley.

While we didn’t discuss it on Friday afternoon, Zane guest starred in DC’s Legends of Tomorrow as P.T. Barnum. The episode aired weeks before the release of The Greatest Showman in 2017.

"Billy Zane talks Titanic and More" When it comes to setting films in the future, there’s a challenge that comes with dating it in which the technology is able to catch up. This is a problem that comes with films such as Back to the Future and Blade Runner to name a few. We don’t have flying cars. Los Angeles hasn’t become a dystopia.
