Entertainment Reviews:
[A] gentle adult drama about the inner emotions, memories, and life choices of a young woman named Taeko, voiced by Miki Imai in the original version.
Boston Globe
[I]t has a cumulative power as Taeko comes to understand that the past that shaped her needn’t define her. That’s a remarkably sophisticated theme for any film, let alone a cartoon.
A.V. Club
[A] lovely memoiristic story....Mr. Takahata finds a poignancy in milestones and ordinary moments alike...
New York Times
4 stars out of 4 -- [B]reathtakingly beautiful and quietly but devastatingly moving...
RogerEbert.com
Takahata has built ONLY YESTERDAY to go gently and to last. Mission accomplished.
Rolling Stone
5 stars out of 5 -- This is an utterly beguiling classic: delicate, charming and tender, an animation that draws on the 'family movie' tradition of Japan’s classic live-action cinema.
The Guardian
Intimate and somehow magical, ONLY YESTERDAY is a classic of Japanese animation...
Los Angeles Times
Product Description:
Legendary animator Isao Takahata wrote and directed this nostalgic film, based on a manga by Yuko Tone and Hotaru Okamoto. The story centers on Taeko, a 27-year-old office worker who is sick of her job and ready for a change. As she ventures to the rural Yamagata prefecture to visit her sister and brother-in-law, her mind wanders back to moments from her childhood and adolescence. While reflecting on her coming-of-age experiences, Taeko bonds with her brother-in-law's cousin, a hard-working farmer, and attempts to learn who she truly is. Originally released in Japan in 1991, ONLY YESTERDAY finally received an official U.S. release from GKids in 2016; the English-language version boasts newly recorded voice-over work from Daisy Ridley, Dev Patel, Ashley Eckstein, and Alison Fernandez.
