Only Yesterday (1933): Margaret Sullavan Shines

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Apr 6, 2021

In the opening designs of Only Yesterday, the New York Stock Exchange is encapsulated by its usual hubbub only to hit the skids of pandemonium when the market crashes. We’re talking about the Big Crash of 1929. It plays as the backdrop to our story, very much functioning as current events. Th read more

Yesterday (2019): How I Longed for a Bit More

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Jan 11, 2020

The majority of movies have to fight to earn our allegiance. However, Yesterday really does have a foolproof premise because, from the outset, it can bank on a viewership who will already have memories crowded with the Beatles and as the Fab Four play a key role in the story, you already have a huge read more

77 years ago yesterday...

Carole & Co. Posted by carole_and_co on Jan 13, 2019

...Carole Lombard left Los Angeles for what would be the last time.This photo apparently was taken at Union Station on Jan. 12, 1942 -- that's certainly the outfit Lombard wore on her productive but ill-fated war bond tour -- but who's the man with her? I have since learned he's Howard D. Mills, sta read more

book: Drink to Yesterday (1940) by Manning Coles

Noirish Posted by John Grant on Nov 10, 2018

A while after we’d first moved into our current house, about twenty years ago, we discovered that what we’d assumed to be a bit of solid wall in the living room was a much-painted-over built-in storage chest, so to speak. Once we got the thing open it proved to be full of books, jammed read more

Only Yesterday (1991)

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Jul 28, 2018

Only Yesterday’s opening images resonate with me because of their sheer familiarity. The reflections of urban life in a skyscraper. Office buildings with desks, computers, copy machines. All those necessities of the modern working world.  This is the personification of the status quo that man read more

Warner Archive: Peter Bogdanovich Revealed in One Day Since Yesterday (2015)

Classic Movies Posted by KC on Nov 16, 2016

I've always had a lot of respect for Peter Bogdanovich, both as a filmmaker and as a custodian of film history. When many of the great directors were still alive, he befriended these legends and recorded their thoughts for future generations. He would also pay tribute to the style and stars of class read more

Backlots Posted by Lara on May 19, 2016

A few days ago, as I spent a sick afternoon at home, I was pleased to discover the delightful Born Yesterday (1950) playing on TCM. This is a movie that has always fascinated me–Judy Holliday’s performance as the dim-witted Billie Dawn won her an Oscar for the Best Actress of 1950, in read more

Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow: My Life

Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on Apr 11, 2016

An actress so gorgeous walking down the street cemented her status as an A-list actress it’s remarkable how humble an actress like Sophia Loren is. In most autobiographies humility sounds artificial but Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow: My Life forsakes the humble brag mentality in favor of a lyrica read more

Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow (1963)

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Feb 24, 2015

This is the lightest of any De Sica film I had seen up until this point and interestingly enough it was split up into three narratives. The first one follows a woman who continually gets pregnant in order to avoid going to jail, but after seven kids, the toll is too much on her jaded husband. Needle read more
