About Chocho and Yuji's Marital Goodness
Chutaro and Toshiko, a married couple who run a Zenzai shop called "Shiratama Zenzai," lived next to Hozenji Temple. Chutaro was a playboy who easily fell in love with women, and had no interest in business. Even if he occasionally offered to deliver food, it was only to meet the girls. However, Toshiko, who was a reliable person, would always get the better of him with her phone calls, and Chutaro's hopes were always dashed. Then, when a beautiful waitress, Ayako, came to him for advice, Chutaro's heart began to lean towards her. Chutaro also attended the same cooking school as Ayako, and would pursue Ayako even after school. But when Toshiko found out, things got complicated!
Directed by Masahiro Makino, Chocho and Yuji's Marital Goodness leans on a strong ensemble — Miyako Butterfly, Yūji Nanto, Satomi Oka — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1965.
