tehachapistan Much has been said about this beautiful story. Several have asked where to buy a DVD. I found an online streaming version of it on Lifetime, but locating a source for purchasing it was a challenge. As it turns out, the DVD is available at Amazon. I receive no compensation for posting this message.

mike48128 This is a gem of a movie of the week from CBS in 2000. Although it resembles "Somewhere in Time" in several aspects, it is based on a 1960's "Twilight Zone" episode, written by Rod Serling, titled "A Stop at Willoughby." Much better ending than the 1960 Twilight Zone episode. A middle-aged man (Mark Harmon) time travels back to 1896 via a magical railroad pocket watch and a mysterious train conductor. (Bill Cobbs). He falls in love there with the small town newspaperwoman (Mary McDonnell) and eventually makes the decision to leave his present pointless life and career. He "invents" newspaper comic strips. He must return there one last time to save his true love from dying a sudden death in a gas-line explosion. Unlike "Somewhere in Time" (and "A Stop at Willoughby") he does not die! Changing the ending makes all the difference. He stays in 1896 and marries the woman! I have been looking for it on DVD since 2006! I only have it on an old VHS tape with commercials! The CBS online store does not offer it. Only available on-line as an unauthorized DVD-R.

Janet Bright This is a wonderful made-for-CBS movie that, to my knowledge, hasn't played anywhere for at least the last 2 or 3 years, because I've been looking! Based on Twilight Zone's "A Stop At Willoughby," "For All Time" is beautifully fleshed out and lovingly played by all the actors, including Mark Harmon, Mary McDonnell and Bill Cobbs, the magical watch shop proprietor/conductor ***who sets things in motion to change history. Unhappy in his fast-paced job and unsatisfying 15-year marriage, Charlie finds the answer to his dreams when his newly purchased watch gives him an opportunity to start over.*** If you ever notice that it's being replayed, stop whatever you're doing and get your recorder set up - you'll surely want to watch it again and again, as well as share it with your friends. I was thrilled to recently find an old forgotten VHS tape of the copy I made during its 2000 premier and loved it all over again. It was even in stereo, and is now the newest DVD in my dubbed collection! What a shame whoever owns the copyright now hasn't put it out on DVD so the masses can enjoy it.

ejames13 Very,very enjoyable film!!!!!; Mark Harmon & Mary McDonnell were great!. Great detail in time area and clothing. I felt like I could visit there myself given the watch and train tracks. A highly recommendable movie!. I takes us back to the time of are grandparents and the mode of transportation they had.
