    Looking for older Time Travel movie title
    I'm looking for a movie I watched on TV about 30 years ago. It's about a man that finds a way to time-travel back about 100 years. He meets a woman and starts talking to her about what's happened to him. I remember at one point, he hides a special key (it was ornate and unique) in a secret compartment in a drawer in her home. They fall in love.

    I seem to remember that when he first went back to the past, he was trying desperately to get back to the 'present'... but after he met that woman, he had made up his mind he didn't want to leave her or go back. One night, when they were saying goodby on her doorstep, there was a thunder storm and he was dramatically brought back to the future on her doorstep. I remember that he went back to that woman's home and found that old table and that key was still hidden in it... all old and dusty... he was the last one to touch it 100 years before... and he lost the woman he loved... HELP ME FIND THE TITLE!

    It sounds very similar to this one, from 1980?

    Yeah... sounds kind of like that one but it isn't. My movie was older... from between 40's to early 60's I believe... I think it was black and white.

    Was it black and white movie - did it start with the man being hit by lightning at the front of the home and waking up inside seemingly disoriented - falls in love -recognizes a desk in the house - he and the female lead leave a note - he somehow returns to the former time and finds the note in the hidden compartment
