The Time Machine 1960.
A scientist invents a time travelling machine and uses it to glimpse at what the future will be like but goes further than he anticipated.
This was a brilliant take on the novel by H.G. Wells that was a great read, Rod Taylor stars as George who nobody believed in his theory or time travel.
It does have some fantastic effects and stop motion that actually work than other movies from the 60s but are a bit daft and laughable. Alan Young plays Filby in a dual role of present and future friend who may understand George's story and Yvette Mimieux plays Weena of the Eloi people. From start to finish this is entertaining and never gets dull with age. 10+
