When he sobers down, he decides to write about the life of a salaried employee like himself who is very ordinary, not particularly talented. The following is his story: In 1949, Eburi gets married to Natsuko. His monthly salary is 8,000 yen and hers 4,000 yen. Therefore, both have to work to support themselves. Eburi has developed a habituIl tendency to pester around when he gets drunk. One year after their marriage, son Shosuke is born. In 1959, Eburi's mother dies in despair of her husband who has become listless due to the several ups and downs of gaining big profits and going bankrupt. His father is still alive and Eburi is enable to find a way to pay his father's debts. He is doubtful if he can make his wife and child happy. Nevertheless, he has somehow managed to survive so far, living in one of the houses at the employee housing quarters. He gives the title "The Elegant Life of Mr. Everyman" to his story of half novel and half essay style. When it is published, it receives the Naoki Literary Prize (the award given in memory of popular writer Naoki Sanjugo). At a party to celebrate his award, he gets drunk and pesters around. 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.。《家》剧情简介高家是一个封建的大家族，在奉行旧礼教的高老太爷主导下，身为长房长孙的觉新被迫放弃和表妹梅芬的爱情，接受「父母之命，媒妁之言」的婚姻，娶了素不相识的瑞珏。 父亲过世，按家规，传长不传幼，觉新遂承继家业。却引来各房的眼红，一些有形无形的箭齐射向他。为了息事宁人，觉新总是忍气吞声，委屈求全。看在三弟觉慧的眼里，很不以为然。 梅芬在丈夫病逝后，又回到成都，意外和觉新再度相逢。梅芬的不幸，使觉新自责甚深，瞒着瑞珏，背地里帮助梅芬。 觉慧和丫头鸣凤，从小一起长大，渐生情愫。老太爷欲将鸣凤送给冯老爷做小，鸣凤投湖自杀，以身殉情。不久，梅芬也因病去逝。 老太爷要觉民娶冯老爷的侄孙女。觉民不从，离家出走。老太爷逼觉新把觉民找回来，夹在祖父和手足之间，觉新里外不是人，备受煎熬。 五叔的劣行曝光，老太爷气急攻心，一病不起，终于松口，婚事暂时不提。然觉民赶回...。
