Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 6/10 by Dennis SchwartzA weepie family drama tailor-made for Douglas Sirk that is ably but too rationally directed by Irving Pichel.
User Review - 10/10 by Troy FA great but little known movie. Claudette Colbert should have won an Oscar for her performance. The cast is great with George Brent, Richard Long and a very young Natalie Woods. A great Chick Flick.
User Review - 10/10 by Orlok WAnother brilliant classic,great afternoon viewing.
User Review - 10/10 by Alicia MMy favorite performance by Orson Welles. He is astonishing as Erich Kessler and makes us ache along with the utter brokenness of his body and his life as we witness the story unfold through his riveting and unforgettable performance. The entire cast is superb. You'll fall for Welles in this underrated gem.
User Review - 10/10 by Ashley H[i]Tomorrow Is Forever[/i] is a great movie. I think Claudette Colbert and Orson Welles are great together. Although, Orson Welles rarely played the romantic lead, he's wonderful as Joh. I cried during most of the movie the first time I saw it. There are wonderful performances by George Brent and a young Natalie Wood. [i]Tomorrow Is Forever[/i] is a movie you need to see at least once! It's an amazing film!
User Review - 10/10 by Danette/Dani AThey don't make movies quite like this classic drama anymore. If you want to watch a great story and superb acting by Orson Wells and Claudette Colbert, catch Tomorrow is Forever on TCM.
User Review - 8/10 by Ryan GSuperb and intensely dramatic without being over the top.
User Review - 8/10 by Anthony VNice little tear jerker with Welles and Colbert at the top of their game and little Natalie Wood Stealing every scene she's in. Well written and directed.
User Review - 8/10 by Kevin SGreat story about "the war at home", ranking only slightly below Mrs. Miniver and The Best Years of Our Lives but slightly above The Enchanted Cottage. The knock on this one comes when Elizabeth (Claudette Colbert), thinking her husband (Orson Welles) was killed in the first world war, sees him again after twenty years and doesn't recognize him. You're supposed to believe that a beard and a little grey in the hair renders a person unrecognizable. It's similar to Superman putting on a pair of glasses and everyone thinks he's Clark Kent. That aside, the film is still remarkable. Colbert is absolutely breathtaking. And what is it about Orson that makes him so unpretentious in spite of himself? He approaches every role as though he's playing Hamlet or King Lear and he pulls it off. Could any other actor of his day, or any day for that matter, get away with that? He is truly one of a kind. One last note: Look for an adorable 8 yr. old Natalie Wood in her first credited screen role. What a cutie!
User Review - 8/10 by Greg DMuch like many of the greatest movies ever made, Tomorrow is Forever is a powerful and emotional film about sacrifice and putting the greater good above your own will. Claudette Colbert plays a young wife named Elizabeth at the end of World War One. The war is now over and everyone is celebrating. Unfortunately, she receives a telegram informing her that her husband has been killed. This film deals with the horror of war and how even conflicts far removed can have effects that ripple across the globe. It is also a film that deals with self sacrifice and seeing the bigger picture. To me, such noble and universal themes so masterfully executed are what makes this film so powerful, effective and impressive. This is a film that bores into the soul and touches, enlightens and inspires. It is a tragic story, but one that also generates optimism about the nature of mankind and the ability we have in all of us to step up when the going gets tough. Orson Welles gives the most memorable performance of the film as Elizabeth's husband John. Apparently, due to William Randolph Hearst's objection to Citizen Kane and his desire to ruin Orson Welles, Welles was avoided by Hollywood but Claudette Colbert who was a big star was able to get him cast in Tomorrow is Forever. It is a good thing too. Orson gives another great performance. We see his character transform and mature and Welles portrays this transformation flawlessly. It is worth pointing out that this was also Natalie Wood's first credited role. She was just eight years old when the film was released. Even at such a young age she shows considerable talent. My only real complaint with the film is that there is an essential plot point that comes across as contrived and hard to swallow, but because it was used to further what I thought was a powerful theme, I found it more excusable. Those who have seen the film will know what I am referring too. It has to do with two characters not recognizing each other after the passage of about 21 years. Perhaps with different makeup it would have been easier to swallow but as it is, you have to suspend your disbelief quite a bit to accept that there wouldn't be complete recognition of one another. I highly recommend this film.
