Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure

In Stephen Herek's quirky comedy, two brain-dead California teenagers, with a combined vocabulary of approximately 75 words, travel back in time to corral various historical figures for a class presentation that just might keep the pair from failing history "most heinously." Bill S. Preston, Esquire (Alex Winter) and Ted "Theodore" Logan (Keanu Reeves, in one of his first starring roles) encounter Napoleon, Socrates, Billy the Kid, Sigmund Freud, Mozart, and others, who then journey forward in time with the duo in order to give the youth of California eye-witness accounts of the "awesome" pageant that is world history. Most excellent.
