Late for Dinner
1991, English. Directed by W.D. Richter.
Sometimes you can be gone forever and still make it back in 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).
