The Future Is Here!

One of the most important science fiction films of all time, Things To Come opens prior to World War II and takes the viewer on a hundred-year time trip to 2036 A.D. when a man and woman are rocketed to the moon. This inspired saga predicts television, jet planes and evil dictators. Featuring fabulous sets, a rich musical score and sweeping visual grandeur. A truly spectacular film event!

Visionary science fiction novelist H.G. Wells teams up with ace producer Alexander Korda and Academy Award-winning* director-designer William Cameron Menzies to produce this landmark motion picture epic, beautifully restored form the original 35mm studio masters. -Wade Williams
