George, an inventor living in England at the turn
of the 20th century, has crafted a machine that can
move through time. He passes through World War I, World War II,
a nuclear holocaust and thousands of years to find a strange future of
romance and danger. In this new world he encounters the
Eloi, a beautiful, indolent, pleasure seeking race, and the Morlocks, mutated, hideous,
industrious, and savage. This is a film version of the H.G. Wells' classic novel.
The TeachWithMovies.com Learning Guide to The Time Machine will help teachers and parents use this film to give children a clear understanding about the four dimensions of length, width, depth,and time. It will start children thinking about the horror of nuclear war and the type of society that might evolve after a nuclear holocaust.
