We Don't Need Roads: The Making of the Back to the Future Trilogy by Caseen Gaines

4.0

Very fun and entertaining. Although not everything contained here was brand new to me, such as Eric Stoltz's brief stint as Marty, I still appreciated additional information about these topics as well as gaining more knowledge about the series. Since I am not as fond of the second and third movies, it was a relief that the book focuses more on the first film and the foundation that it laid while still including material about the later installments. Highlights include the juicy drama caused by Crispin Glover not participating in the sequels, the breakdown of a near-fatal stunt in Part II, and the lasting impact of the trilogy in pop culture with individuals of all ages. My only quibble is wishing that Michael J. Fox and Tom Wilson had been interviewed in addition to the many members of the cast and crew that Gaines spoke with to share their memories and offer insider insight on the movies.
