Robert Zemeckis clearly has a thing for time – past, present, and Back To The Future. With a filmography that also includes films like Polar Express and especially his Oscar winning Best Picture Forrest Gump, the director loves mixing the newest filmmaking technologies with relatable stories that play with our perceptions of life as time goes by.
He really dives into this theme in a big way in his ambitious adaptation of Richard McGuire’s 2014 graphic novel, Here, which does not send its century+ cast of characters back in time, but rather lets time come to them on a single piece of land, later a home over the course of the entire 20th century, a bit before that and a bit after.
The great French director Claude LeLouch did a similar thing in 1974’s splendid romance And Now My Love in which a couple’s chance meeting at first sight is prefaced by a century of different generations we meet whose varied lives lived all lead to that one moment.
Here takes the idea of focusing the audience’s gaze on one particular place in the universe as we watch people come and people go through triumph, happiness, sorrow, heartache, and most of all family set in one home starting in the early 1900’s and continuing to today.
