ReRUN (2018) Online

ReRUN, a feature film, currently in production, is a modern day twist on "It's A Wonderful Life" where George falls through the closet and ends up in today's world, grappling with a more youthful world, but with the ageless elements of choice, love, regret and re-imagining one's life and coming to terms with it. Production for the modern day world is complete and post-production is almost done. In production is the FUTURE part of the film, when George is looking back, before he falls through the closet, and the end of the film when he returns from the that journey.

Wonderfully directed by Alyssa Rallo Bennettt, with amazing acting performances by the legendary Christopher Lloyd, as well as an incredibly talented young cast.A must see film for people of all ages!

Touching without being cloying or manipulative, this great indie film takes a fresh and honest look at growing old and the choices we make through the eyes of George Benson (played young adeptly by a very charming Teo Rapp-Olson and old by the immensely talented Christopher Lloyd), who is given the chance to relive a critical day in his life thanks to his grandson's magical closet. What makes this movie so great and honest is that instead of it turning into a trope of "look how much better off all these other people are as a result of your actions", George Benson sees how much worse of HE would have been had he taken "door number 2" (so to speak), and THIS makes him realize how lucky he was to have the life he had with his wife (who is deceased in the present but played young and so likeably with a terrific performance by Allison Frasca) and that perhaps he took her for granted. It's a very honest assessment of how we look at our lives. At the end of the day, we're all a little self-motivated; but that doesn't mean we aren't thankful for the people who make are lives great. The scene where he gets to say a cryptic, one-sided "good-bye" to his wife before they are even married is very moving, and the shot of Christopher Lloyd sitting alone with his old age, having wet himself, in a house of younger family on Christmas is amazing.

ReRun is a film that has elements from It's A Wonderful Life but is very much it's own thing. It shows that if one doesn't learn from the past one is doomed to repeat it, but in this case, one must repeat their past quite literally.

The film starts with an elderly George Benson, played brilliantly by veteran actor Christopher Lloyd, at a future Christmas reminiscing about his past youth, specifically focusing on one young woman who he hadn't let go of, despite him marrying and having a family. His grandson Nicholas, played by newcomer Rishon Salters, reveals that his closet can take anyone wherever they want in time. Letting his curiosity getting the better of him, George enters the closet and comes out on the other side as a younger version of himself at a past Christmastime. He's back with his fiance Mary, his old crush Violet and her abusive boyfriend Frank. Now while George isn't exactly back for a do-over, he does get to see his past with a fresh eye and with at least seventy years worth of hindsight behind him.

It is refreshing to see a film about time travel that doesn't have any big goals to achieve or a time limit on someone disappearing or not. While viewing this film, you may find yourself relaxing while watching it, and I haven't felt that with a time travel film, since I saw Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. This film also boasts of a well-rounded cast with the talented Christopher Lloyd and uprising talent of Rishon Salters, their scenes together are some of the best moments in this film, along with the young adult cast as they simply navigate through life and that's nice to see. It's nothing complicated, no big plot, no real villain (just a jerk or two), it's just a slice of life and that's nice to see every once in a while.

ReRun is a film where everyone can get something out of it. Adults can enjoy the elements of reliving their youth, teenagers can get a taste of what life may or may not be as they become adults and everyone can enjoy the positive spirit this film brings up as Christmastime always does.
