About Dimple of Tokyo
Buntaro, the president of a food trading company got tired of the day-to-day routine of life. The new secretary, Nobuko, suggested her "shacho-san" (the president) run away from the job. Nobuko took Buntaro to her home and introduced him to her own family as friend, "Sachio-san"...
Directed by Shūe Matsubayashi, Dimple of Tokyo leans on a strong ensemble — Ken Uehara, Yatsuko Tan'ami, Kingorō Yanagiya — 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 1952.
