Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Time After Time is a 1979 novel by Karl Alexander and movie directed by Nicholas Meyer (which, while based on the book, was made before it was published) starring Malcolm McDowell, David Warner and Mary Steenburgen. The film was shot on location in San Francisco, showing off the cable cars, Bay Bridge, Golden Gate, the exterior of the Exploratorium, etc. It has nothing to do with the song by Cyndi Lauper (except that the movie apparently inspired the song's title).In 1893, aspiring writer and inventor H. G. Wells (McDowell) invites some friends over to dinner, where he shows them one of his latest inventions — a device he claims can travel through time. Despite the general mockery he receives, one of them — a surgeon called John Leslie Stevenson (Warner) — takes particular interest in his claims, and not for no reason; moments after, the police intrude into Wells' home, claiming to have traced none other than Jack the Ripper to the premises. When a search reveals that Stevenson has disappeared, Wells realises that not only is Stevenson the Ripper, but that he has used Wells' time machine to escape into the future and evade justice.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Appalled at the thought of having unleashed a monster onto the social utopia he believes the future will be, he decides to follow Stevenson into the future and bring him back to face justice. Arriving in San Francisco in 1979, Wells finds that the future is not everything he thought or hoped, befriends an attractive, feminist bank clerk called Amy (Steenburgen) and discovers that Stevenson is up to his old tricks — and that Amy may be his next victim.The book and movie were later reimagined as a 12-episode ABC TV series, Time After Time. Its trailer can be seen here. | |

Genre Savvy: Wells is savvy about a few things, such as: There is a distinct possibility that he may need to trade jewelry for money in the future. A museum exhibit of his desk may also have a perfect replica of his glasses. Oddly, he doesn't consider the possibility that his currency might be worth more to a collector, even when the guy at the bank suggests it. | |

Chekhov's Gun: The "send the passenger to infinity" key, explained in an early scene. It winds up sending Stevenson drifting through the void for eternity. Amy's comment about how the door to her apartment needs to be slammed hard to close. This is how the Ripper gains entry to the place. Wells carefully watches Amy to see how she drives the car. Later, he puts that lesson to use. | |

Time After Time / int_3149c4b0 | comment |
It Will Never Catch On: Wells confidently asserts in 1893 that "within three generations the social utopia will have come to pass", predicting that war and violence and poverty will have been eliminated. Stevenson is skeptical of this even before he is exposed as the Ripper, and Wells for his part is quite disappointed when he sees what modern society in 1979 is actually like. | |

Not Even Bothering with the Accent: While preparing to portray Wells, Malcolm McDowell obtained a recording of Wells speaking, and was horrified to hear that Wells spoke in a high-pitched, squeaky voice with a pronounced Southeast London accent. McDowell felt would have resulted in Narm if he tried to mimic it for the film. | |

Fish out of Temporal Water: Wells finds that the future isn't the utopia he'd thought. This leads to many gags, like his utter terror the first time he rides in a car. Also, he has this exchange with Amy: Jack inverts this. He blends into his new life splendidly, as the quote at the top of this page illustrates. | |

I'm Mr. [Future Pop Culture Reference]: Inverted and subverted. To blend in, Wells adopts the name of a period fictional character he's sure will be forgotten ninety years later. Unfortunately, this fictional character happens to be Sherlock Holmes. Also, despite still being famous in the future, being known by his initials allows him to blend in quite nicely with his real name Herbert Wells. | |

Disposable Sex Worker: Serial killers like to target hookers, whether it be 1893 London or 1979 San Francisco. | |

Right Man in the Wrong Place | |
Time After Time / int_f458e883 | comment |
Right Man in the Wrong Place: A double-whammy. Wells eventually has to accept that his pacifism can't prevent Stevenson from killing more women, and he buys a pistol to stop him and protect Amy. Unfortunately, he also finds out that if the police already suspect you of being the murderer and want you for questioning, it's a pretty bad time for them to catch you with a gun in your pocket. | |

The Future Is Shocking | |
Time After Time / int_fc47c7f9 | comment |
The Future Is Shocking: The film has H. G. Wells and Jack the Ripper taken to modern times. Jack changes the channels on a TV to show constant scenes of violence to claim that he belongs here and Wells doesn't. | |

Red Light District: Whether it be Whitechapel in 1893 or the Tenderloin of San Francisco in 1979, the Ripper knows where to go to find victims. | |
