  • Models of Time Travel
    MODELS OF TIME TRAVEL A COMPARATIVE STUDY USING FILMS Guy Roland Micklethwait A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University July 2012 National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science ANU College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences APPENDIX I: FILMS REVIEWED Each of the following film reviews has been reduced to two pages. The first page of each of each review is objective; it includes factual information about the film and a synopsis not of the plot, but of how temporal phenomena were treated in the plot. The second page of the review is subjective; it includes the genre where I placed the film, my general comments and then a brief discussion about which model of time I felt was being used and why. It finishes with a diagrammatic representation of the timeline used in the film. Note that if a film has only one diagram, it is because the different journeys are using the same model of time in the same way. Sometimes several journeys are made. The present moment on any timeline is always taken at the start point of the first time travel journey, which is placed at the origin of the graph. The blue lines with arrows show where the time traveller’s trip began and ended. They can also be used to show how information is transmitted from one point on the timeline to another. When choosing a model of time for a particular film, I am not looking at what happened in the plot, but rather the type of timeline used in the film to describe the possible outcomes, as opposed to what happened.

    ANYTHING GOES -Sutton Foster and Joel Grey star as Reno Sweeney and Moonface Martin in Cole Porter's musical cruise across the Atlantic Ocean. BOOK OF MORMON, THE -Have they written it on golden plates? Only the creators (South Park + Avenue Q) know for sure. CHICAGO – There’s never been a better time to experience Broadway’s razzle-dazzle smash. A sensational tale of sin, corruption and all that jazz, it has everything you could want in a musical: knockout dancing, an edge-of-your-seat story, and one showstopper after another. CHINGISH - Playwright David Henry Hwang (M. Butterfly) explores the cultural barriers between America and China - especially linguistic ones - in this timely new comedy. COLUMNIST, THE - David Auburn's (Proof) latest drama portrays the dilemma faced by powerful Washington columnist Joseph Alsop, who publicly hosts the Kennedy Camelot circle while keeping hidden deep parts of himself. Starring John Lithgow. DEATH OF A SALESMAN - One man and his family are caught up in the pressures and delusions of living the American Dream. Miller's play is the story of a traveling salesman whose illusions of picture-perfect business and family life cave in on him. Philip Seymour Hoffman stars as the distressed salesman Willy Loman in Arthur Miller's masterpiece. Also starring Andrew Garfield and Linda Emond. END OF THE RAINBOW - It's December 1968 and Judy Garland is about to make her comeback…again. In a London hotel room with her young new fiancé at her side, Garland battles with a tornado of drugs and alcohol as she undertakes an exhausting series of concerts at the Talk of the Town to try and reclaim her crown as the greatest talent of her generation.
