Why does something as simple as time travel always turns out to be so complicated? Domhnall Gleeson, Rachel McAdams, Bill Nighy, Tom Hollander and Margot Robbie. Written and directed by Richard Curtis (Love Actually).
At the age of 21, Tim is told an incredible family secret by his father: all the men in his family have the ability to relive their past. He can revisit any moment in his life to try things differently until he gets them perfectly right.
He decides to use his special new gift to win the heart of the beautiful Mary, but finds that the course of true love can be hilariously difficult — even with the ability to try, try and try again. And even when everything seems to be going well, an unfortunate twist in time means that he never met Mary at all…
