35 years ago today, Back to the Future premiered in theaters! (July 3, 1985) After mad scientist 'Doc' Brown demonstrates his DeLorean time machine to high-schooler Marty McFly, Marty inadvertently winds up in the year 1955. Stuck in the past, Marty seeks out Doc to find a way back to the '80s. But when Marty's actions prevent his parents' chance meeting, he must play matchmaker to make them fall in love—or he'll be erased from existence. #backtothefuture #martymcfly #docbrown #1985 #flashback #christopherlloyd #michaeljfox #thedelorian #timemachine #timetravel #todayinmoviehistory https://www.instagram.com/p/CCMF1jcHa92/?igshid=1tuyxoui0xlj9

#TodayInMovieHistory "#HomeAlone" opened in theaters on November 16, 1990. As confirmed by biography.com "The movie premiered 25 years ago, in 1990, and became the most successful live action comedy movie in the United States ever, a title it still holds to this day. It was actually the most successful worldwide, too, until it was surpassed in 2011 by The Hangover: Part II. (Yes, The Hangover: Part II.) It opened in November and stayed in theaters all the way through Easter, stretching the boundaries of what a holiday movie is and confirming the star status of #MacaulayCulkin, who was 10 years old when it was released (and only 9 when they started shooting). He'd been acting since he was four, but this was his first starring role, and it changed his life. While he battled a challenging home life, he was embraced by Hollywood, even forging a friendship with superstar #MichaelJackson. The two both grew up with hyper-controlling fathers, and hit stardom young, and over their lost childhoods, they bonded. Jackson even visited the Home Alone set during shooting, and Culkin appeared in his groundbreaking video for "Black or White."

#TodayInMovieHistory "Twenty-one years ago Wednesday, the #QuentinTarantino’s seminal film “#PulpFiction” was released in theaters. It was #Tarantino's second film after “Reservoir Dogs” — his directorial debut. The film focuses on three distinct but interrelated stories that are presented out of chronological order. It revitalized the career of John Travolta and was nominated for several Academy Awards. It was also later selected for preservation by the Library of Congress for being "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant." Via #TheNewYorkDailyNews
