Minnasa, konnichiwa.

In this sentence:

きのうは『(ようじんぼう)』という(くろさわ)のたのめてです。
Kinou wa "Yojimbo" to iu Kurosawa no eiga o mita no wa hajimete desu.

Is it possibile to have two "wa" or "wa" after kinou must go away?
And of course, is this sentence grammatically correct?

Thank you in advance.

Yes, it is both possible and correct. The は after きのう is required. The は after の could possibly be eliminated with some rewording.

It's not unusual to have more than one of the same particle. But your sentence uses のは on the second one, not just は on its own.

If you omitted the first , then I'd put a comma on it. That は doesn't need to be omitted, but it can. That won't make a difference as long as you use it properly. The second one is more important to preserve.
