Back to the future – Essential items

The year 2015 is an important year in the movie trilogy Back to the future. It is the year that Doc and Marty (Jennifer is also there), go to the “future”.

Kanske inte filmiskt mästerverk men den har onekligen sin charm om än något pojkaktig. Filmens extravaganta rustningarna och kläder tyckte jag var häftiga, i alla fall när man var en pojke.
