About Zoku Shôwa ero rôman: Ichiya no yoromeki
In 1964, Japan was in the midst of its rapid economic growth. With the Tokyo Olympics and the opening of the Shinkansen, there was no shortage of topics of conversation. Shigeru, the eldest son of the very ordinary Kazama family, was experiencing a forbidden love with Madoka, the daughter of an old provincial family, but she had an arranged fiancé. Hesitant, Shigeru couldn't go beyond kissing and remained indecisive. Madoka's heart was also beginning to waver...
Directed by Yutaka Ikejima, Zoku Shôwa ero rôman: Ichiya no yoromeki leans on a strong ensemble — Elly Akira, Yuria Hidaka, Itsuka Harusaki — 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 screen titles of 2007.
