Book: The Time Machine
by H G Wells
Film: The Time Machine (1960)
Published in 1895, the science fiction novella would popularize time travel using a device or a contraption. The story shares Wells socialist political views, his views on life and abundance and contemporary angst against industrial relations.
The 1960’s George Pal MGM film, starring Rod Taylor, Yvette Mimieux and Alan Young would use stop motion animation to help flourish the story. The film was a box office success. Pal wanted to film in London but to budgetary reasons had to settle for Culver City in California. Interesting fact, George Pal was going to film a sequel but unfortunately, he died before production.
