1952

Shûji Sano, Etsuko Miyama, Keiko Tsushima, Teiji Takahashi, Takeshi Sakamoto

Comedy It chronicles the experiences of a neighbourhood doctor, whose taste for tonkatsu (a popular Japanese dish, similar to a pork schnitzel) earns him the nickname ‘the pork cutlet prince’ from the affectionate residents of the tenement in which he lives. When a local hospital, run by a female doctor daughter of a wealthy man, plans to expand, the future of the tenement is called into question.
