Back to the Future | Michael J. Fox Changed EVERYTHING | Lea Thompson

Lea Thompson takes Taboo inside Back to the Future for a scene-by-scene look at Lorraine McFly—from the Calvin Klein bedroom scene and the unforgettable car kiss to Enchantment Under the Sea and Johnny B. Goode. She reveals what changed when Eric Stoltz was replaced by Michael J. Fox, how Fox’s precise physical comedy reshaped their scenes and what it took to play multiple versions of Lorraine across different timelines. Lea also shares behind-the-scenes stories about Crispin Glover, Christopher Lloyd and director Robert Zemeckis, along with the demanding makeup from Part II, filming Parts II and III back-to-back, the movie’s surprising musical-score secret and why a Back to the Future reboot remains off the table. 00:00 Lea Thompson Intro 00:17 Why Lorraine McFly Works 00:46 The Calvin Klein Scene 01:55 Replacing Eric Stoltz 03:34 Michael J.
