Somewhere in Time Young writer Richard Collier is met on the opening night of his first play by an old lady who begs him to “Come back to me”. Mystified, he tries to find out about her, and learns that she is a famous stage actress from the early 1900s, Elise McKenna. Becoming more and more obsessed with her, he manages, by self hypnosis, to travel back in time where he meets her. They fall in love, a matching that is not appreciated by her manager. Can their love outlast the immense problems caused by their “time” difference? And can Richard remain in a time that is not his?

Touching Time-Travel Tale
Somewhere in Time Being one who always seems to enjoy time-travel stories, it’s no wonder I like this movie so much, but it isn’t the interesting “time” angle that draws me in: it’s also the fact that this is one of the most touching love stories I’ve ever seen. I’m not usually a big fan of romance stories, but this one has always moved me, maybe because, as another reviewer points out, it’s from the man’s point of view.
The film is a wonderful old-fashioned type of story with a really nice feel for the period (1912) and is simply a pleasant, leisurely-paced story I found comfortable. Would kids of today like this? No. Too slow for them. Too bad, because I found the movie moved pretty well. The 100 minutes went by quickly.
Christopher Reeve is the star of the film but personally I found Jane Seymour and Christopher Plummer far more entertaining. The theme song, “Somewhere In Time,” is one of the prettiest songs ever and that adds to the sad and frustrating romance angle of the story. The language also is quite tame. Yes, it’s a bit “sappy” at times, but for sentimental people, this is a nice film to keep.
