Mr. Shosuke Ohara
1949 · Movie · 97 min. · Japan
Saheita, the final heir of a once rich and respectable family, can’t refuse the many villagers that come to him for favours and money, even though he is on the brink of bankruptcy. Around town he is better known by his nickname Mr. Shosuke Ohara, after the folkloric character who squandered his riches through his preference for loitering and drinking.
