Young writer, Richard Collier is met on the opening night of his first play by an old lady who begs him to, "Come back to me." Mystified, he tries to find out about her, and learns that she is a famous stage actress from the early 1900s. Becoming more and more obsessed with her, he manages – by self-hypnosis – to travel back in time where he meets her. They fall in love, a matching that is not appreciated by her manager. Can their love outlast the immense problems caused by their 'time" difference, and can Richard remain in a time that is not his?
Rated PG for a moment of language and brief sexuality.
There is no nudity in this film. However there is a love scene with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour but it is brief, lasting only about 10 to 15 seconds with Christopher Reeve starting to lie on Jane Seymour and cutting to a candle that is blowing away. Afterwards Jane Seymour references the fact that this is her first time haing sex.
The lead characters kiss.
