Films that made you feel you'd gone back in time?

Werner Herzog's very good at this. I like Nosferatu the Vampyre, especially the scene of Harker walking along in the street early on.

Back to the future

"Space bastard!"

I walked out of the cinema and was shocked I wasnt in China. I totally lost myself and environment in that movie.

That's great – that's exactly the feeling I would hope to have too. I haven't been "to the pictures" for over twenty years but I can just about recall the disorientation of leaving the cinema after being thoroughly absorbed in a film.

Isnt it fantastic. Such a great experience but gave me a real jolt. I think I got the same from Gandhi. I remember getting to my car and not remembering how I got there - just in a daze.

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen must have been the most profound cinematic experience I had. I think it just felt like familiar territory. And with the battles it had that huge scope like a much older film such as Gandhi or Lawrence of Arabia.

The Revenant
The Witch

Baz Luhrman's take on The Great Gatsby really made me feel like I was in the middle of the Roaring 20's.

Boyhood.

That movie triggered back a lot of memories. A lot of which were sort of buried down.

Not by anything bad, mind you, just that they were sort of forgotten.

Those Jay-Z covers were strangely apt.

A guy friend who recommended that to me said exactly the same thing, Saunchy. I've yet to see it.

It wasn't so much the music as it was the settings and costumes and the staging of the parties in Gatsby's mansion.
