On January 5, 1900, a disheveled looking H.G. Wells - George to his friends - arrives late to his own dinner party. He tells his guests of his travels in his time machine, the work about which his friends knew. They were also unbelieving, and skeptical of any practical use if it did indeed work. George knew that his machine was stationary in geographic position, but he did not account for changes in what happens over time to that location. He also learns that the machine is not impervious and he is not immune to those who do not understand him or the machine's purpose. George tells his friends that he did not find the Utopian society he so wished had developed. He mentions specifically a civilization several thousand years into the future which consists of the subterranean morlocks and the surface dwelling eloi, who on first glance lead a carefree life. Despite all these issues, love can still bloom over the spread of millennia.
Such a great film with old school special effects and beautiful matte paintings. The Talking Rings scene is one of the great moments of cinema...just boss as hell.
If anyone is interested, Devon Stack's (Blackpilled) comparison of this original film against the remake is worth the time to watch.
He doesn't analyze the novel, but instead focuses entirely on comparing the differences between this 1960 movie version and the 2002 movie version.
His analysis focuses on comparing the differences between the propaganda that kikes were pushing on the 1960 audience and the propaganda they were pushing to the 2002 audience 42 years later in the remake.

This was one of my all time favorites that sparked my thirst for sci-fi and compelled me to read every sci-fi book in our school library.
I was a lucky kid when a cop friend of my dad's gave my dad an entire sci-fi book club collection. Non-stop Heinlein, Pohl, Sturgeon; Dick; Niven and Pournell; Asimov...Bradbury...couldn't get enough.
