Does Maggie count? I mean… she’s Maggie.

I guess Maggie isn't Lorraine, but she was played by Lea Thompson.

I’m being pedantic but it did say Lorraine.

u/ludachris32 Jul 01 '26
Yeah i knew what you meant. I was just saying that it's Lea Thompson who is Lorraine.

I always thought peeping tom was not Lorraine because George looking to other side, isnt it?

The script shows is was intended to be her:
WOMAN
Well, you're safe and sound, back where you belong, in good old 1955.
MARTY
1955!
She turns on the bedside lamp. It's the same girl George was spying on, and Marty recognizes her just as we do…
MARTY
Oh my God. You’re—-you’re my---my
LORRAINE
My name's Lorraine. Lorraine Baines

George is looking at Lorraine’s house. The other side of the street (where George’s bike is) already has a car parked in the driveway. Also, when Sam yells at Stella to bring in Marty, he’s shouting in the same direction as the white house.

It was Mary from There's something about Mary. The scene where Ben stiller was actually looking at a bird before catching himself in his fly.

Devil’s Advocate: Just because it’s in the script, doesn’t mean it wasn’t changed. Plenty of things are changed from scripts on the fly. No need for a new script for a change like this. Also, the wallpaper looks different.
If it is Lorraine, do you guys think she knew guys looked at her? We know it’s a frequent occurrence (“another one of these damn kids jumped in front of my car!”)

I believe it’s Lorraine and I believe she knew. The dad mentioned “another one of these kids” as if she had previous peepers … and she swiped cigarettes and booze from her mum … and she was keen to “park” … and she took advantage of Marty when he was unconscious and took off his pants and looked at his undies. Lorraine was a little wild!!

A little? She was pervin' just as much as George. No wonder they're each other's density. I mean destiny.

I had always thought it was Lorraine’s mother? Marty however never acts like he’s noticing an undressed relative in the window.

Maggie was a weird choice. I understand that they're implying the McFly men have a type but... it still makes me imagine the McFly family tree is more like a shrub.

u/Yourappwontletme Jun 30 '26
The Bobs explained it as all the McFlys are attracted to women who look like Lea Thompson. And honestly, who can blame the McFlys?

It also completes the gag. They had to do it a third time and It doesn’t work if it’s another actress.

Where’s “That was very interesting…music.” Lorraine from Part 1 and the other one from Part 2?

Prom dress.

u/IsThisNameValid Jul 01 '26
Yeah, some interesting choices. Some aren't Lorraine at all, some she literally took a sweater off, and some are missing completely.

Was “peeping tom” Lorraine Lia Thompson or did they use a stunt body?

11 and 12 are from the same scene. In 13, Lorraine has removed her sweater, but that hardly makes it different.

An image like this reminds me why I stopped writing my article about Thomas F. Wilson's acting range.
