Clayton Valley Mystery
It's been a while since I last saw the Back to the Future trilogy when it was aired on terrestrial TV, but it was really interesting. Although you can watch the full, uncut version of the work at any time on streaming services, I think there's something good about the density of compressing it into a TV program. To be honest, whether it's BTTF or Star Wars , I've been watching Western movie theaters on TV, but it's also fun to discover new things because shows that I didn't choose are shown on TV without my permission. I think there is.
By the way, when I looked back on it as an adult and had more wisdom, I noticed a number of things that bothered me. When George knocks out Biff at the climax of Part 1, Lorraine forgets about Marty, a.k.a. Calvin Klein, who was a creep even though he saved her in a dangerous situation, and after that, things are changed to suit the McFly family. Even in 1985, were the changes really only affecting that area? (Since Biff's fall from power, the high school's situation must have changed considerably, and in the first place, even after the changes, it's not necessarily the case that people still live in the same place.) (There's no end to it if you think about it), what happened to Tannen of Marty's generation (even if Marty's age isn't quite right, Biff must have children since he has grandchildren), and why hasn't the clock tower been repaired for 30 years? (Hill Valley in 1985 was pretty deserted, but there must have been some free time right after the lightning struck.) Well, it's at that level, but it's fun to think about things like this and supplement them in your own way.
What particularly caught my attention was the character Clara Clayton, who becomes Doc's romantic partner in the Wild West in Part 3, and the ravine in which she was supposed to fall to her death. Clara, a teacher who was transferred to Hill Valley in 1885, is rescued by Doc and Marty when she is about to fall down a ravine due to an out-of-control horse-drawn carriage, but due to Marty's memories from one of her few history lessons, the ravine was originally a place where a woman who was supposed to have fallen to her death. It turns out that it was supposed to be called Clayton Valley after him. Doc regrets changing history in a small way, but he ends up falling in love with Clara... However, there is a slight problem here.
Let's look back at the synopsis of Part 3. At the end of Part 2 (which is also the end of Part 1 ), Marty is at a loss when Doc's DeLorean is struck by lightning and disappears, but soon after, a bewildered telegraph official keeps it in storage for 70 years. He handed me a letter saying that he had been there. It was a timeless letter from Doc, who was sent to 1885, 100 years before the time he was supposed to return to 1985 due to a malfunction in the time circuit.
Following the instructions written there, Marty enlists the help of Doc from 1955 and discovers the DeLorean that Doc from 1885 had given up on repairing due to technical limitations and stored in an old mine shaft. By repairing this with parts available in 1955, Marty can return to his original year in 1985. However, Marty discovers something incredible in an old cemetery near the mine. This is a grave marker with Doc's name engraved on it. About a week after writing the letter to Marty in 1885, Doc was shot by Buford Tannen, an ancestor of Biff Tannen. Although the letter said never to try to help him, it would be a different story if his life was at stake. Once the DeLorean is repaired, Marty presses the accelerator without hesitation to take Doc back to the future in 1885.
The problem is Doc's grave, which is the starting point for Marty's new adventure. The words "From Clara, with everlasting love" are engraved on the tombstone, which hints at Doc's romance in this work, but is there something strange about it? As mentioned above, wasn't Clara supposed to have fallen down the ravine due to an out-of-control carriage shortly after arriving at Hill Valley? Since Doc is shot by Tannen much later, it is impossible to write a line on his tombstone in mourning for his death. What does this mean? I would like to think about it, including my own imagination.
