Notes
The film is based on a novel written in the style of an essay under the same title by Yamaguchi Hitomi, depicting everyday life of a man categorized as "During-the-war Generation" who spent school days during the war and get married to start new life in the struggling post-war era. "Everyman" in the title means an average salaried employee who makes up an overwhelming majority of the city population in Japan, and "The Elegant Life" indicates sarcasm on betterment of the standard of living of ordinary salaried employees accompanied with Japan's economic growth after only a decade from the destroyed post-war period. As depicted in the film, the author Yamaguchi Hitomi was awarded the Naoki Literature Prize for this story. When he established himself well enough to become independent, he quit working as a salaried employee. Director Okamoto Kihachi and the leading actor Kobayashi Keiju belong to the same generation as the author. Exploiting innovative effects such as inserting animation sequences, the film humorously presents compassion of a middle-aged salaried employee. Kobayashi Keiju, who was originally noted for his excellent portrayal of salaried employee, won the best leading actor award of the Mainichi Film Contest for his superb performance in this picture.。第二次世界大战后期,三个意大利战俘被送到苏格兰的一个农庄上。庄主年轻的妻子珍妮对这些远离家乡的人产生同情,其他妇女对此议论纷纷,说了很多闲话。珍妮甚至还和战俘中的—个人发生了关系。战争结束,一名战俘强奸一名妇女,珍妮的情人受到牵连。珍妮为他做了无罪证明,但是法律不保护战俘。他们陷入新的痛苦中转载来源:K8经典。
