Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure
Speaking of youthful Reeves, one of his most talked about films in his repertoire has to be 1989’s Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure. This film has become a cult classic over the years for its hilarious premise and strangely funny performance by Reeves and Alex Winter as stoner high school students who gain access to a time machine that looks like a phone booth for an unforgettable history project. Along the way the duo stumble across such historical figures as Napoleon, Billy the Kid, Socrates, Sigmund Freud, Genghis Khan, Joan of Arc, Abraham Lincoln and Beethoven. This movie is just pure comedic brilliance and is considered on of the best comedies of the time. An honorable mention to this cast is the great comedian George Carlin as Rufus. The film also led to a sequel and a television show with the possibility of a reboot in the future.
