Dear Aunt Stanky,

An unforseen mechanical failure in my chrono-craft has left me stranded in this strange and savage epoch, with no access to the necessary quantities of antimatter whale oil to return to my beloved home in 1880. So my question is: What twenty-first century movies and pop culture would you recommend to a displaced Victorian looking to while away the years of temporal exile?

Sincerely,

BRADSHAW OF THE FUTURE

Dear Shaw-shank —

I remember the first time I saw “Time After Time” as well, but it had H.G. Wells and Jack The Ripper. You’ve got the 19th century version of Doc Brown. Back to the (old) drawing board, Skippy.

Always your (Timely),

Aunty Stanky
