Hello there! Grab some popcorn and a Coke and join us for our discussions on classic cinema.

What is classic cinema? Well, here at Yesterday’s Matinee, we define classic cinema as any movie or movie franchise critically and/or socially lauded over 20 years old. So, if you’re looking for thoughts on the latest releases, best to visit the myriad other theater review sites.

We look to challenge how classic cinema is perceived, discussing the brilliance of the classic works as well as discussing the more problematic elements that have aged poorly over the years.

So, sit back and relax and join us on our journey visiting movies through the ages.

Quote of the week

“When the sun is coming up/And the world has come ashore/If you’re hoping for a harbour/Then you’ll find an open door/In the winter, from the water/Through whatever’s in the way/To the ones who have come from away/Welcome to the Rock!”

~ “Welcome to the Rock”, from Come From Away, Book, Music and Lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein
