Any channel-flipping insomniac who might have come across Turner Classic Movie channel's late-night screening of Nothing Lasts Forever at 2 am one Monday morning would hardly have raised an eyebrow. Another innocuous black-and-white science fiction B-movie, with a maudlin big-band soundtrack and ample 50s era stock footage intercut between stilted dramatic sequences.
But wait—no. That’s impossible. Because isn’t that Dan Aykroyd? And there, playing a sky host on a moonbound commuter bus—a young Bill Murray? Now our poor insomniac would be mightily confused. How could Dan Ackroyd and Bill Murray be in a film that looks for all the world as though it were made in 1952? Is this, like the alleged time-traveler caught on film in Charlie Chaplin’s 1928 film The Circus, some instance of paranormal cinematic anachronism?
