Reston Changes Name to "Hill Valley"- Hosts "Back to Future" Stars

In honor of the Washington West Film Festival’s fifth birthday and the movie Back to Future’s 30th anniversary, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors in July passed a resolution symbolically changing Reston’s name during the five days of the Washington West Film Festival.

The film festival, running at Reston’s Bow Tie Cinema, among other Northern Virginia locations, begins Oct. 21.

Hill Valley was the name of the town where Back to the Future hero Marty McFly lived. And the date, Oct. 21. 2015, was the exact spot on the calendar where the DeLorean deposited Marty and Doc in the movie.

Washington West will host two Back to the Future events at Bow Tie Reston: A trilogy marathon on Oct. 21, as well as a red carpet screening of Back to the Future Part 1 on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Scheduled to appear at the Oct. 25 screening: Actor Christopher Lloyd (Doc); trilogy co-writer and producer Bob Gale; Claudia Wells (Marty’s girlfriend in Part 1); and others.

Waste of money for the board to even discuss such a stupid thing.
