"What, makes anyone think a contemporary audience will go for an old-style black and white silent comedy? Give it contemporary relevance, of course. But it still needs to be grounded in the past, which means shooting it all in contemporary times is not so interesting. Two time spans are required...last century and this century. And there’s really only one way to travel between centuries, and that’s with a time machine." - film press kit : )
