Dr. Emmet Brown: "Back to the Future"

In 2015 around the date of "October 21" there was a big wave of excitement both in the press and among Internet users. She was recognized as the day of the trilogy "Back to the Future", because at this very specific moment Marty McFly and Emmet Brown arrived from the past. It's been 30 years since the audience got acquainted with the creation of Robert Zemeckis, and it still remains one of the most revered and revisited in history. The "recipe" of these films is very simple, and each of the "ingredients" is of the highest quality. This is a carefully thought out plot, amazing for that time special effects, an excellent soundtrack and, of course, bright and memorable characters.

Dock image

Externally, Emmet Brown resembles a mad scientist with all attributes inherent in this image: a white robe, tousled hair and an insane look. The same goes for his behavior, which sometimes goes beyond the framework established by society. Most likely, that's why Doc does not have friends at all, and all kinds of instruments and mysterious devices serve him as loyal companions. Robert Zemeckis, creator of the trilogy "Back to the Future", and Bob Gale, a writer, admitted that they partly wrote off this image from Einstein and the conductor Leopold Stokowski. His character became so fond of the audience and got used to the mass culture, which became one of the most popular in history. He represents the image of a truly devoted and enthusiastic person, who is completely absorbed in science.

Biography

In the paintings there is almost no information about the past of Dr. Brown and about how he chose this way. However, the universe was expanded through a cartoon, and there are alternative versions of the script, so you can get some information about the parents and childhood of a brilliant scientist. For example, it became known that Emmet Brown was born into the family of Sarah Lathrop and Erhart von Braun. The ancestors of both families lived in Hill Valley. Science boy was carried away at an early age, after reading the book "Journey to the Center of the Earth." His father was against it, but he could not help it, and his son went to receive higher education at his own preference. Judging by the words of Zemeckis himself, the future genius studied at Berkeley and the University of California, and was also a participant in the Manhattan project in the 1940s, thereby acquiring the necessary knowledge of nuclear physics. He was always interested in the possibility of traveling through space and time, which becomes the main motive force of the plot.

First part

The fatal moment in the life of the scientist was the acquaintance with Marty McFlay in 1955. However, on his own time line, Marty met his mentor in the 80s, after which he went to the past to warn him about a possible change in the course of history. He says that the future Doc - Emmet Brown - still collected a time machine, which was pleasantly shocking to the inventor. To create a wonderful device, Doc spent the whole state of his family, so in his spare time he has to work in his own support service. In order for the machine to eventually work, he went on a risky and life-threatening step. The fact is that plutonium should be used as fuel, so Emmet Brown entered into an alliance with the Libyans to steal it from them. They did not tolerate deception and shot the hero, Marty witnessed, and immediately after that event went to the past in order to fix everything.

Sequels

The continuation of the film comes in 1989, and the third part - after another year. There, the main characters are again Marty McFly, his girlfriend and future wife Jennifer and, of course, Emmet Brown. "Back to the future-2" begins with the fact that the trio goes to 2015. The doctor tells young satellites that they must save their children from imprisonment. They cope with the mission, but they are waited by an unpleasant surprise. Old friend Biff Tannen with the help of a time machine creates another alternative reality, in which a complete madness is created. To remedy this, Marty and Doc again jump in 1955, where they successfully cope with the task. However, in the final, a scientist is struck by lightning, and he falls in 1855. The course of history is broken, so McFly again hurries to help a friend. The events of the third part unfolded in the Wild West, where Marty rescues Dr. Brown from death. When it's time to go home, it turns out that this is only possible for one of them. As a result, Doc, along with his beloved Clara, remains in 1885, the subsequent adventures of which later removed a separate animated series.

Actor

Christopher Lloyd - this is the person to whom his appearance on the screen is due to Dr. Emmet Brown. The actor brilliantly turned into a brilliant scientist, than set the tone for the whole picture. It is difficult to imagine someone else in this role, and Lloyd himself is recognized for the most part precisely because of it. Although, in addition to the trilogy, he starred in more than a hundred different paintings. For example, in the cult "The Family Adams" in 1991, as well as in the films "My Favorite Martian", "Route 60" and "Sin City-2". In addition, he presented his voice to numerous animation characters. Actor, despite the old age, continues to actively withdraw, although for all he will remain the same Doc, to the image of which he periodically returns until now.
