There’s Always Tomorrow

There’s Always Tomorrow

Directed by Douglas Sirk • 1955 • United States
Starring Barbara Stanwyck, Fred MacMurray, Joan Bennett

One of director Douglas Sirk’s most savagely subversive deconstructions of the American nuclear family, THERE’S ALWAYS TOMORROW casts Fred MacMurray as Clifford Groves, a toy-company executive whose wife (Joan Bennett) and kids take him for granted. When former flame Norma Vail (Barbara Stanwyck) unexpectedly reenters his life, Cliff sees a second chance at finding happiness—but can he escape the stifling conformity of the 1950s suburban “dream”?
