I read the book "Bid Time Return" years ago when I was in either
junior or senior high school, sometime around the age of 14-15.
It was a recommended Young Adult book selection back then.  I
remember that I loved the book, as did my best friend who
recommended it to me.  When I heard a movie was to be made from
it, I was thrilled.  Unfortunately, I was out of the country when
the movie was released and so never got to see it (I don't have
cable tv) and am waiting for it to make the network rounds.
I can understand the problems you have with the details of
time and time travel.  From your questions, I get the feeling
the movie was not quite so understandable as the book.  I don't
recall exactly how the book worked out such problems, only that
as a 14-15 year old girl, I found myself believing it all.
Try reading the book.  I think I would re-read it (I'm 23 now).
If I could find it.
