From: Stuart Cracraft <CRACRAFT@ISI-VAXA.ARPA> Brett Slocum commented on "The Time Machine" starring Rod Steiger. Actually, it starred Rod Taylor, a completely different type of leading man. Steiger is more of a character actor, quite talented of course. I wouldn't write in on such a small item except that it was the top of my film favorites back in the 60's. Sadly, George Pal, who directed it died a few years ago. While Meyer's "Time after Time" was good, there's *no* way I would put it in a class with "The Time Machine." Well, they are really two different types of movie aren't they? The first is humorous and the second tries to be more realistic. Difficult to compare. Stuart -------

OOPS! Sorry about that error, Stuart. For some reason, I have always
confused those two actors.
I beg to differ. Time After Time may have had humorous moments, but the
total effect is rather serious.
That's all.
