One element of the Old West story is sweet and entertaining: The romance between the eccentric Doc Brown and a local woman named Clara ( Mary Steenburgen). But the town in "Future III" is made up of lots of pieces from old movies, including even a shootout on Main Street and the usual troubles with the local sheriff. Now don't get me wrong: I was delighted to see Buttram again (he was Gene Autry's sidekick in the old days) and even happier to hear that his voice still is in need of oiling. The movie is so filled with old Western cliches that the regulars in the bar even include Pat Buttram. But this movie's West is unfortunately a sitcom version that looks exactly as if it were built on a back lot somewhere. The Old West of "Back to the Future Part III" might have been interesting if it had been an approximation of the real Old West - the one we saw in " McCabe and Mrs.
McFly travels back into time, and, unfortunately, once he gets there he mostly stays there. He goes looking for the machine in the old mine and finds it still there, and it even starts after a century, which is more than you can say for most cars after a month in the garage. McFly does some historical research and discovers to his horror that Doc Brown was killed only a week after writing the letter, so he determines to venture back in time, whatever the risk, to rescue his friend. This letter, of course, has taken 100 years to arrive.ĭoc Brown does, however, reveal where he hid the DeLorean time-travel machine, in an abandoned mine near town.
Now comes "Back to the Future Part III," in which Marty receives a letter from the past - a letter written by his old friend, Doc Brown ( Christopher Lloyd), from a century ago, explaining that he has traveled back to the Old West and generally is happy there, and asking Marty to simply leave him alone.
