About Five Tokyo Men
Newly released from the army, five men return to Tokyo to find no place to live in the bombed-out city, food and necessities rationed out by people who don't care, and a thriving black market.
Directed by Torajirō Saitō, Five Tokyo Men leans on a strong ensemble — Roppa Furukawa, Entatsu Yokoyama, Achako Hanabishi — 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 1945.
