Not So Long Ago (1925)
Directed by Sidney Olcott
Overview
Against the backdrop of New York City of the early 1850s, a young woman—naively seeking to win the love she reads about in the romance novels she devours—finds one prospect in an earnest denizen of the Bowery, and another in an elegant young aristocrat. Focusing on the bygone era’s fashions, the novelty of the bicycle-built-for-two, and an inventor’s quest for the horseless carriage, the film gently stirs the audiences’ nostalgia for simpler times.
