...much more, I'll spoil all of Road Trip's best gags, so I'll just encourage you to go see Road Trip regardless of how bad it makes me look. Just don't take your mother...

Giving away too much of the plot would spoil the pic's comedic surprises, so I'll give you a barebones outline. Woody Allen plays Ray Winkler, a lowlife, an impractical dreamer, who has to put up with the constant nags of his wife Frenchy (Tracy Ullman). Ray spends his days conjuring schemes - usually illegal ones (he's done some hard time - yes, yes, imagining Woody Allen surviving time in a jail cell is part of the humor, I'm sure). This time, Ray notices that a store next to a bank is up for rent and convinces his friends...

As her mirrored comrade (and adversary, depending on the scene) Gwendolen, Jennifer Moxin puts her considerable comic vitality to fine work here in what is sometimes mildly bizarre exaggeration, sometimes farcical explosiveness. These two work...

...will we time-travel in the next century? Travel to the future--yes, but only in short hops, I suspect. To the past--very likely not. Such travel is expensive, dangerous and subject to quantum effects that may or may not spoil your chances of coming back alive. Those of us working in this field aren't rushing to the patent office with time-machine blueprints. But we are interested in knowing whether time machines are possible, even in principle, because answering that question will tell us where the boundaries of physics lie and provide clues to how the universe...
