''T-Rex: Back to the Cretaceous'' is a 1998 American edutainment adventure film shot for the IMAX 3D format. The film is directed by Brett Leonard, renowned for his computer-generated imagery special effects productions. Executive producer/co-writer Andrew Gellis and producers Antoine Compin and Charis Horton also make up the production team. Liz Stauber and Peter Horton star, alongside Kari Coleman, Tuck Milligan, and Laurie Murdoch. The film is among the few IMAX films that are considered "pure entertainment", though it still is considered rather educational by the mainstream audience. ==Plot== The plot revolves around 16-year-old Ally Hayden (Liz Stauber), the daughter of Dr. Donald Hayden (Peter Horton), a world-famous paleontologist and museum curator. She loves dinosaurs and longs to be able to accompany him to one of the nearby paleontological digs, but her father thinks this is too dangerous and she has to settle for giving museum tours instead. A mysterious accident at the lab revolving an oblong fossil rock happens while Ally's father is away at a dig site with his assistant (Kari Coleman), and Ally is magically transported back in time. Among the various time periods she visits are the Cretaceous, when the ''Tyrannosaurus'' and ''Pteranodon'' existed. Ally is also transported to the early 20th Century where she meets renowned historical figures in the world of paleontology. These include dinosaur painter Charles Knight (Tuck Milligan) and paleontologist Barnum Brown Laurie (Murdoch), arguably one of the most famous paleontologists in early fossil-hunting history. The shining moment of her trip to the past, however, is when Ally discovers a T. Rex nest and then defends the nest from an ''Ornithomimus'', earning the mother T.Rex's respect to the point where Ally actually strokes the T. Rex on its snout before the meteor is shown hitting the earth, blasting Ally back into the present day. There, she is reunited with her father. At the very end, as Ally and her dad leave the museum, the fossil rock begins to shake and, with only the museum cat watching, the rock breaks apart, revealing a still living, baby ''Tyrannosaurus''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「T-Rex: Back to the Cretaceous」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
