Just for the useless information department, the toy car is a Matchbox 'SuperFast' #68. SuperFast was the new series introduced to compete with rival Hot Wheels models. This particular car (#68) was a model of the Porsche 910 (906/10) or Carrera 10. It was produced from 1970. If anyone wants to relive his childhood memories like the bloke in this film, there are a number of these for sale online.😀
The sad thing about becoming an adult is that we forget that there's magic in the world. Like the magig of a cardboard box, that can be anything from a time machine, to a rocketship that will take you to the stars. I hope when I'm old enough I'll remember that magic, and play kick the can and become a kid again. Those of you who are old enough, or fan of the original Twilight Zone will get that reference.
In space time there is no past or future. Only the present moment. On the space time grid, your younger self is on those coordinates still right now. And you can always use heart and mind to travel and be them. Or give them love. Their gift is they can give you your youth forever. It's a frequency we can all tap into. Just my belief that's all.
@@nikolasflameart9750 sorry no such type of timetravel possible. But yeah you can recive memories from the futureself. I sometimes get memories from my future self when I am awake and all. But the sad part is i can't control which memories I receive or send in the past. The only problem is that something the order of things I remember happened with me but never happened. Like the sazam movie (an old one) Which disappeared from history but people like me remembers the movie in parts watching the movie as a kid. But in this timeline it never existed
I remember the episode; the elderly lead character decides not to go play with the other old people and so he does not return to childhood as they did; too afraid or too "sensible" about the magic and the possibilities; too often these things come with age.
I think this should win an award, Sam. You did a great job - I think many of us feel like getting into a time machine. For me, I'd go back to the 1950s/60s, get out, then destroy the machine. Great job!! Very touching.
I was glad that the guy didn't travel through any temporal paradoxes! "We all have our own time machines... The ones that carry us into the future are called visions... the ones that transport us back to the past are called memories....."
That was pretty dam cool! Most people use drugs and alcohol to take them back! This guy made and brought out his own time machine! Time waits for no man!
I am 42, and single. I lost my dad way back in 1986. I live with my mom and octogenarian uncle. In my culture, it is considered good to stay with your aged parents and look after them. As for this short, I have a plot twist: The toy car actually belongs to the present-day kid. He gave it to his dad (who suffers from memory loss), and they play a game together of going to the past, and his dad is supposed to bring back toys from the past and give it to his son. The man already had the car in his jacket's pocket when he boarded the "time machine". He just doesn't remember it. The man's son plays this game out of pure love for his dad, just to make him happy 🙂
I'll be 42 this June 30th as well and I too lost my father to a drunk driver I n 1991. My mother remarried and me and my brothers (older and younger brother and his girlfriend)all live together and we look after our folks as well. My step father is now a quadriplegic from a spinal condition. And he's basically bedridden at this point and we all have to help him. And my Mother's health isn't so good either but we all pitch in together to help make their lives easier with the daily chores and errands they can't do any longer. And I'm single because the love of my life died back on July 31 2017 from complications from pneumonia.... That WAS AND STILL IS SOOO HARD TO HANDLE....But if I had a choice to go back in time to my childhood? I don't think my mind could handle seeing who I used to be before so much tragedy struck throughout my life... I'm afraid it'll only magnify the sadness I live with everyday....
Imagination is the start..And finding anything from your past. All my past is within my grasp in my house just remember it can make you smile or make you cry. If you have not objects, play your favourite music, it does the same.
Great cinematography My interpretation is that we adult can relive a bit of our childhood through our kids. This is how I feel since 2002, when I had my daughter
Michael S. I am 69 and when I was just 20. my mother died suddenly of a massive coronary one week before Christmas. She was only 44. My reaction was just like yours is now. it wasn't until seven years later, when my first child was born, that I once again looked forward to Christmas. Michael, do you have children, or even perhaps grandchildren? They can turn back on that spark of delight and celebration of not only Christmas, but the other holidays; and even Life itself.
@@marbleman52 I'm 60 never married and realized at a young age that having children were something that I wasn't able to do because it takes a lot of responsibility and determination. I'm also gay.
@@SicilianStealth Then I am glad that you made a wise decision and didn't have children that would have very possibly suffered from a lack of proper care on your part. The world is full of unhappy and neglected and abused children; we sure don't need any more. I respect your decision.
😭😭😭😭 same since my dad died- mum puts up a tree but not the same one we had all through my childhood and I was really upset to find out she threw out all the lovely old colours paper bells 🔔 and balls and garlands - some of me died that day - so I know how you feel- I’m afraid I can’t find words of solace unless you’re own children will be your new happiness
So good... Time rushes by so fast... All this hate and violence is time lost never to recover. And for what ? All this hate and Violence will be regretted one day... But it will be to late....
I have never said this...don't take it to heart ❤....once you travel..... You will NEVER end up where you started!!!... In this time, that linear motion means as forwards as backwards... No matter...
That kid would've taken one look at that toy and refused it. And then he'd head home to play his VR 360 Oculus Grand Prix Simulator. I miss the simple days before all of the technology that our species isn't really mature enough to use responsibly, took over every single aspect of our waking moments. And even sleeping is being affected with thousands of us using sleep apps.
He goes back to year 1978 by pointing the needle to yr 1978. Shouldn't he point the needle to the 'future' not present to come back to his present life? Just kidding. Lol.
Once foward... Twice in the past...it took 20 years for me to remember.... Not worth it... Foward, I still do not remember, past is easier..no interaction, just memories.....1879 and some indigenous in '50... No interaction and you don't need a machine to do it.... Pffft... More shit I'm not supposed to say... Good luck with that one...just some more shit he's not gonna allow....like money....a waste of time...

It was also part of the movie.
this is why we save things from our younger days . just holding it can take you back in time. lovely video, made me cry, TY
"Ditto!" 😹😻🚘(🚗💨zoom...time goes by so fast!)

Love the background music.

"We all have our own time machines... The ones that carry us into the future are called visions... the ones that transport us back to the past are called memories....."
We don't see time pass before so quickly and how the little things meant so much to us. Our time is shorter than we think .
💞💞😥
Even while he was building it, the "time machine" reminded me of Calvin's (of Calvin and Hobbes) Transmogrifier.
Wonderful work great job 🌹🌹👌👌👌👌👌
That was pretty dam cool!
Most people use drugs and alcohol to take them back!
This guy made and brought out his own time machine!
Time waits for no man!
It's hard to let go of the past when its holding the best memories..😕
Nicely made
kid literally sent him back in time.. beautiful message love this

@@TH-camallowedmynametobestolen 🙂
This is beautiful, Sam. What an incredible piece!! Great work!
MY INTERPRETATION:
The car itself was the time machine. With it, the man could travel back in time in his mind to when he was a child.
Well done, our imagination is what makes future, lovely done with a cardboard box. Less is more proves itself in this one, CUTE!
bravo
Very well done
Wow, that was 5 minutes worth of a well thought out short film without a single word spoken.

This is so good in so many ways! I hope it won a lot of awards...
Wonderful. 👁⏳🏹
Great....
A nice short film story!
👍😇👍
I never grew up, I’m the Dad playing tag with his kids in the playground. Scooter races on the sidewalks.
Past is a nice place to visit but certainly not a good place to stay.😢
My father just died and mom has dementia. No more putting up the Christmas lights.

This just makes me feel old.

Short and sweet! Made me smile. Thank you.
Yeah it was sweet , we all get older but some of the memories are still there.
Everyone is emotional here..😆😆
I have never said this...don't take it to heart ❤....once you travel..... You will NEVER end up where you started!!!... In this time, that linear motion means as forwards as backwards... No matter...
😭 Absolutely perfect ❤
Strangely emotional...

I was hoping he’d come out and get eaten by a dinosaur.
Ready to reincarnate today. This life is FUBAR!
Where was this made? It seemed to me to have a very British feel.
Just like the Tardis...bigger on the inside.
😜😂😂
🔵 That was SO nice,... thank you!
BTW!...What is the piano music please? (after 0:32).
history is tomorrow dont forget too live it::::::::
His hair was curly.. haha, just kidding | To remember the good old days..
Whoever gives this a thumbs-down should seek therapy.
im in the movie, beleive me or not
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Would someone please turn off the pathos machine.
