Late for Dinner
Sometimes you can be gone forever and still make it back in time.
Directed by W.D. Richter
Produced by New Line Cinema, Castle Rock Entertainment
A time-displaced romance about two men thrust thirty years into the future, grappling with loss, reconnection, and the possibility of reclaiming what was stolen by time.
Two young men, one in need of medical attention, are cryogenically frozen in the early 1960s. The two are preoccupied with the fact that the police are pursuing them to realise what they are doing. The next thing they know is that they are in a strange new world (thirty years on).
