Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 1980 film adaptation of Richard Matheson's Bid Time Return, directed by Jeannot Szwarc and scored by John Barry. The screenplay was written by Matheson himself.Even if you have Single-Target Sexuality, you just might give up after finding out that your One True Love exists in a different time period. But that doesn't stop playwright and writer Richard Collier (Christopher Reeve), who for lack of a better description manages to psych himself back in time to find the beautiful woman he's seen in an old photograph. That's right, the space-time continuum is just no match for The Power of Love.Richard arrives in the year 1912, in the same vintage hotel room he was staying at in 1980. Soon he encounters the woman he's looking for, stage actress Elise McKenna (Jane Seymour). However, her overprotective manager William Fawcett Robinson (Christopher Plummer) won't put up with anyone romancing his star.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Adaptational Location Change: The novel is set at the Hotel del Coronado near San Diego. The film was originally going to be filmed there, but it was discovered that it had too many modern touches (like power lines and TV antennas). Eventually a friend of director Jeannot Szwarc suggested the Grand Hotel on Michigan's Mackinac Island. | |

Author Avatar: A story by a writer named Richard centers on...a writer named Richard. Matheson prepped for the original novel by staying for several weeks at the Hotel del Coronado and essentially acting out Richard's character arc. He says the book was inspired by his becoming infatuated by the hotel's portrait of actress Maude Adams (see No Celebrities Were Harmed entry below). | |

Art Shift: The 1912 scenes were shot on different film stock with different lenses than the present day scenes, to enhance the period feeling. | |
