Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure
Leaving August 31
•
1h 29m
Directed by Stephen Herek • 1989 • United States
Starring Keanu Reeves, Alex Winter, George Carlin
It’s a totally bodacious odyssey when slacker SoCal teens Bill (Alex Winter) and Ted (Keanu Reeves)—in danger of failing their high school history report, with potentially disastrous consequences for the fate of mankind—receive a little extracurricular help in the form of a time traveller (George Carlin) who takes them on a magical history tour that includes brushes with figures ranging from Napoleon and Billy the Kid to Socrates and Joan of Arc. Propelled by the goofball charm of Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter, this triumphant teen comedy is an irresistible ode to the rock ’n’ roll, party-on spirit.
