BRAD PITT - TIME TRAVEL MOVIE

In the near future, time travel backwards in time is possible. But it is ridiculously expensive. So expensive that it is only ever really done by people in the movie business

People can be put into closed "loops" of time, that allow them to go back for a period of time, before it returns them to their present time

Though people can go back to be "present" during the events and see what took place, it is impossible for them to affect or change the future in any way. They can speak to people and interact with them, but time seems to protect itself from any and all attempts to tell them about the future or change things, by making the travellers attempts somehow ignored by those their interact with

You can't change what is set to happen, no matter how hard you try. And it only ever makes your time and interactions miserable and negative, if you try

Or at least, that is what they thought

After seeing a video of himself present during the filming of a famous rock video, interacting with the band in a behind-the scenes documentary, Brad Pitt (who plays an actor in the future in the movie) becomes obsessed with the idea of going back in time to see the downfall of one of the greatest rock n roll bands the world has ever known, personally

To understand everything that happened in the lead up to their infamous last album, before the band was killed in tragic circumstances

Everyone knows the tale of the bands bizarre demise. A diet of sex, drugs and ritualistic occult practices, which ended in the murder of the bands beautiful female Idol and guitarist, by her long term lover and singer-songwriter boyfriend

A ritualistic murder which shocked the nation, ending in the discovery of the singers body a few days later at another location, the victim of an apparent suicide, born of the guilt of killing his lover

But this case of time travel is unlike the standard time-vacations often taken by the rich and powerful

This is the first time there is solid documented footage of the future visitor having been intimately involved in the past events

A video in which Brad Pitt cannot help but think that he and the frontman of the band seem like far more than just acquaintances, they seem like good friends

And so he decides to travel back

Not only to do first-hand research on the band for a movie being made in the future, but also to meet this friend. The type of friend it feels like he has never known before

But something is very different with this particular time-traveling loop

It is far more than just the video

Though it is he that is traveling back into the past with knowledge of the future, it feels as though it is the enigmatic couple in the past, who has been waiting for him

Who knows more about what is happening, than he does

A feeling as though they have been waiting for him

And the yet unrealised events of their future, are somehow dependant on his visit, like destiny waiting to be realised

Somehow, when he speaks of things which should not be spoken of, he is heard

They not only believe him that he is from the future. It is as if they know

And no matter what he does, it seems that the man from the future is inexorably drawn into the events of the past, which are yet to take place

Where it seems that no matter what choice he makes, or path he takes, it will lead him to an unfulfilled destiny linked to the fate of the past couple

One that is not written of in the history books

And one that has the possibility of bringing about the end of all things
