Tora-san's Love in Osaka (男はつらいよ　浪花の恋の寅次郎)

A Shochiku Film

Once upon a time, Torajiro Urashima… … …

Visited the Sea God's palace with a turtle…

He was delighted to stay, but… … …

I'm afraid I've stayed too long.

In Shibamata, where I live...

My family is waiting for me.

It's time for me to go, Princess.

Must you really go?

The sorrow of parting is mine, too.

I've been prepared for this since we first met.

I will not stop you.

Listen, Turtle...

The box.

Take the box to remember me.

Torajiro received the box as a gift from the Princess…

Riding the turtle… … …

He returned home…

But to his surprise… … …

The village he longed for was gone…

All he saw was a barren field…

Excuse me.

Wasn't there a shop named Toraya here?

Sakura!

Sakura... it's me.

Who are you?

Don't you know me? I'm your brother.

Sorry, I have no brother.

Who's he?

Says he's my brother.

He's crazy.

Hiroshi. Aren't you Hiroshi?

It's me, Torajiro.

That reminds me. Grandma had a brother by that name.

It's me!

Nonsense!

He went missing 50 years ago.

He'd be eighty by now.

Forget this man. Let's eat.

He thought he 'd been away only a few days…

Now he realizes fifty years have passed…

He was so saddened, he wept…

Princess...

I love you from the bottom of my heart.

That reminds me...

I wonder what's in the box.

Well?

Help!

I got old instead of you!

A dream?

Hey, kid.

Don't bully the weak.

It's so little.

It's mine!

Yours? Here, I'll buy it.

Listen, never go where there are people.

Now, take off.

Ouch! It bit me! Damn turtle!

A motor bike.

Hello.

You bought it?

We moved away, so...

How nice!

How much?

1,600 yen.

Thank you.

Here's the delivery box.

Here, thank you.

The Priest gave us these azaleas for the altar.

They're lovely.

In season already...

Time flies. It's almost summer.

Aren't they lovely?

I don't care about seasons.

Something wrong?

He's in a jam. It's his shop.

Looks like there's no way out.

He might have to fold up his shop. But I told him not to.

Hiroshi didn't tell you?

No. Is it that bad?

Hiroshi is all right. He can work anywhere he likes.

And get more pay.

Don't say that. Don't give up.

Your employees and their families depend on you.

That's right.

Thanks for the encouragement.

I'll try harder.

I know a guy who might help me.

Good luck!

They're geisha.

I can't afford them now.

I'll ask that handsome man.

Excuse me.

Yes, what is it?

Kawachiya...?

The restaurant? On the left.

Thank you.

A geisha party. It's great, huh?

Have fun.

Been a long time.

Brother!

Uncle, Aunty, how have you been?

Fine, thanks. You here, too?

Welcome back.

What's funny?

I dreamed about you.

Remember me once in a while?

I was at the Sea God's palace.

There was a lovely princess.

Fish were dancing for me.

Delicious food.

There was an octopus.

Then I discovered it was you.

I was stunned.

"How come you're here?" I asked. "Finally gone bankrupt?"

With teardrops falling, you sprayed dark ink on me.

I kept on laughing even after I woke up.

Has your shop folded yet?

Disgusting!

Move!

Don't do that!

You know nothing!

Stop it!

Has the weather made him crazy?

No. Business is bad. It's hard on him.

I dream of hanging myself every night.

And you dream of a palace and a princess?

Not nice.

What stupid logic!

I didn't try to dream.

It came naturally while I slept.

It wasn't my fault.

You sprayed ink on me...

I've had it!

Stop it! Big men brawling! Shame on you!

Smile and earn some money.

You're sniveling.

Use this.

Take care.

Sorry about this.

Why do I bother coming home? What a mess!

You want some tea? Or take a rest first?

Have you found the boss?

I phoned Kyowa Printing. They're looking for him, too.

Odd, isn't it?

Anyway, let's knock off for the day.

Has he come home?

Not yet.

I wonder what happened.

We looked all over, but couldn't find him.

Isn't he drinking somewhere?

I tried all his favorite bars, but...

He left around two?

What time is it?

Is business that bad?

He got a bad check.

Not so big, but it hit him hard.

And Tora had to say a thing like that. He's hurt!

What did he say?

That he'd dreamed of a Sea Palace...

Where an octopus like him was dancing.

That's not nice!

A mere word can drive people to suicide.

Tora, were you there?

Welcome back.

Tell the cops?

Well, let's eat.

Where to? Let's eat.

Can't eat at a time like this!

Where could he be...?

Sure! The river!

Genko! Bring some lanterns!
