 Amazon.com: Yesterday: DVD: Camilla Walker,Kenneth Khambula,Leleti Khumalo,Lihle Mvelase,Harriet Lenabe,Darrell Roodt   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
Set in South Africa, "Yesterday" chronicles the harshness of life in a small Zulu village, and the plight of a woman named Yesterday, whose husband works in the Johannesburg mines, and who in his occasional visits home, has infected her with the AIDS virus.

 Korean Movie Review | Yesterday (2002) Seung-woo Kim, Yoon-jin Kim
In other hands, but with the same expensive resources, "Yesterday" would be a thrilling sci-fi movie, with heavy doses of edge-of-your-seat action and emphasis on the word "thrilling".
On the negative side the action is sometimes hard to follow and Min-su Choi ("Libera Me"), as the lead villain, is not very fearsome, even as he's wiping out Seok's team one by one by one.
"Yesterday" has the makings of a good crime TV series, but as a movie it falters badly whenever the rest of the unit disappears into the background for very long.

 Yesterday (2002)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
It begins though, in 1990, where the scientists who are later to be killed off are picked for a special project, and some children disappear.
The film starts off with a fight scene that made me think of the madness of `Black Hawk Down.' The confusion was part of the point of `Black Hawk Down,' here it is a distraction that takes much of the thrill (and all of the suspense) from the action scenes.
`Yesterday' requires a lot of attention and thought to follow the story, but it isn't really worth it.

 Oswald Chambers' "My Utmost For His Highest": December 31st.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
Our present enjoyment of God's grace is apt to be checked by the memory of yesterday's sins and blunders.
But God is the God of our yesterdays, and He allows the memory of them in order to turn the past into a ministry of spiritual culture for the future.
Our yesterdays present irreparable things to us; it is true that we have lost opportunities which will never return, but God can transform this destructive anxiety into a constructive thoughtfulness for the future.
