-
Another show's coming?
-
Some traveling actors.
-
Kihachi Ichikawa's troupe.
-
It's been a long time, Master.
-
I'm going to stay here for a while.
-
Your son's really grown up.
-
It's been four years.
He's nine now.
-
She was just a gawky little girl,
but look at her now.
-
KIHACHI ICHIKAWA'S TROUPE!
OPENS JULY 7!
-
You're going to see the show tonight?
-
Kihachi was so handsome
when he was young.
-
We used to all go
when he came here.
-
Got any older sisters?
-
Don't eat too much
or you'll wet the bed again.
-
Do it again and I'll have Otoki
give you a moxa treatment.
-
Did the boss wet the bed last night?
-
Why don't you give him
bigger doses of moxa?
-
Easy for you to say.
You don't know what it feels like.
-
Just think about Goemon Ishikawa.
He was boiled alive.
-
He was a famous robber.
I'm not.
-
One of your plays is all about thieves.
-
Don't be silly.
Get me a kimono.
-
I'll pay a visit to some patrons
I have here.
-
It's been a long time.
-
I thought it was about time you came.
I've been waiting.
-
Would you like a drink?
-
How is your arthritis?
-
Not bad, now that I use
the medicine you told me about.
-
I get stiff shoulders lately.
I'm being treated with moxa.
-
It's good to see
you're as well as ever.
-
How is Shinkichi?
-
He graduated
from agriculture college last year.
-
He's a postgraduate now.
-
The head of the troupe is here.
-
He's a big boy now.
-
He'll be eligible for the draft
next year.
-
First class.
-
He eats like a horse, doesn't he?
-
No wonder we're old now.
-
It must have been hard
raising him all these years.
-
I don't mind hardship
as long as it's for his sake.
-
He still thinks his father's dead,
doesn't he?
-
He thinks his father
was a civil servant.
-
Aren't you Ionely?
-
No use complaining
about Ioneliness.
-
Let him go on thinking
his father is dead.
-
He wouldn't want
a no-good father like me.
-
He has a great future ahead of him.
-
Dace are in season.
-
Want to go fishing with me?
-
Some fish move slowly,
so you've got a chance.
-
How long will you stay this time?
-
It depends on the audience.
I'd like to stay a year.
-
I think I'll go to the show tonight.
-
Our show isn't for you.
-
You're a student.
Your job is to study.
-
If it were summer vacation,
I'd travel with you.
-
Much in it?
-
I doubt it.
It's floating, so no heavy coins.
-
Did you ever think
it might be stuffed with bills?
-
You never had any bills.
-
Let's rehearse again
before the boss comes back.
-
No matter how great the actor,
it's hard to play the horse.
-
Look, the woman seated
in the second row isn't bad.
-
Finally!
-
Where's the dog?
-
It's pouring.
-
Rain's really the end
for traveling actors.
-
I'm sorry it's become such a mess.
-
It's been raining for days.
-
We had long rains earlier,
in Takasaki.
-
The radio says that
-
it'll rain
for another four or five days.
-
I wish I had
some really good tempura.
-
I want some sake
with roasted eel.
-
You got a smoke?
-
You stole my money,
didn't you, Pop?
-
My kitty bank was facing
the other way before.
-
The boss is really something.
-
We've got this crisis,
and he's out drinking every day.
-
He has to,
as long as he stays here.
-
You said an odd thing just now.
-
It sounded like some kind of secret.
-
I wouldn't mention your name.
-
It's fun to checkmate.
-
Check the king, not the father.
-
You're finished, Uncle.
-
I lost again.
-
You've turned into
a good chess player.
-
When you play the hero of Konjiki,
I'll lend you my cap.
-
Give me a drink.
-
Thank you for taking care
of the master every day.
-
Somebody wants you.
-
What brings you here?
-
What do you think?
-
Is she the patron you had to see?
-
I should thank her too, then.
-
Go home, Otoki.
-
You must be happy
to have such a nice son.
-
How old are you?
-
What does your father do?
-
No need to get upset.
-
I have something to tell
the madame and her son.
-
That's none of your business.
-
What's wrong with me seeing
my own son?
-
You can't talk to me that way.
-
Have you forgotten
what happened in Takasaki?
-
Who do you think got you
out of trouble back then?
-
Who do you think asked
the big shots in town for help?
-
Don't think you can
just walk out on me.
-
All right, we're through
as of now!
-
Don't ever come here again,
or I'll never forgive you.
-
My son belongs
to a better world than yours.
-
Is that fuss during the day
still bothering you? It's not like you.
-
The boss gets mad so easily.
I thought you were used to it.
-
I know.
I'd already forgotten about it.
-
I'm glad. I was worried
because you seemed down.
-
I have a favor to ask you.
-
Try to seduce that boy
who was at the restaurant today.
-
I'm not interested in children.
-
You'd be doing me a favor.
-
Try.
-
Why?
-
Take it or leave it.
-
You really think I could?
-
Bat your eyes and you could catch
any man you wanted.
-
Just turn on the charm.
-
We met yesterday.
-
I have something to tell you.
-
I'll be waiting here
after the show tonight.
-
I don't know if I can.
-
I'm going to take a walk, Mother.
-
Are you angry
because I asked you to meet me?
-
I wanted to see you.
-
Don't you like talking with girls?
-
How was it?
-
I wish a peach
would come bobbing downstream.
-
Bringing us good fortune,
just like in the fairy tales.
-
Otoki isn't around.
-
She goes out a lot these days.
-
Where does she go, anyway?
-
We're going to have to part soon.
-
What will we be doing
this time next year?
-
But let's not think
about a silly thing like that.
-
Why don't we tell
my mother about us?
-
I'm sure she'll help us.
-
I'm not the girl you think.
-
I'm not worthy of a man like you.
-
I tried to make
a fool of you at first.
-
It started that way, but...
-
Never mind how it started.
-
Don't get mixed up
with a traveling player like me.
-
He's been out every night this week.
-
I'm going to have to leave soon.
-
I want to see him
as often as I can.
-
You must be careful.
-
About that woman.
-
Her? I have no excuse.
-
Don't take it wrong. I'm too old
to be jealous. I'd be embarrassed.
-
It'd be awful if she told
Shinkichi the truth.
-
Where the hell have you been?
-
What's that boy to you?
-
Is it for money?
-
Is that what you think?
-
I wouldn't blame you.
-
Otaka, too,
offered me money at first.
-
What did she want?
-
She wanted me to seduce him.
-
But now it's not for money.
I love him.
-
I want Otaka here.
-
I'll speak with you later.
-
You sent for me?
What do you want?
-
What did you plan
to do with my son?
-
Who cares about your son?
-
He's cheap, like you,
playing around with actresses.
-
Are you sorry?
-
I hope you'll be very sorry.
-
The world is like a lottery.
-
You take your ups and your downs.
-
Let's make up, please?
-
This makes us even, you see.
-
Just think how I feel.
-
Where's Otoki?
-
Looks like she just stepped out.
-
Is Shinkichi in?
-
You mean you didn't send for him?
-
He just went out
with that girl from your troupe.
-
This is terrible.
-
I'm afraid I've let Shinkichi
ruin his future.
-
We'll give you this much
for everything.
-
All right.
It's enough to pay them off.
-
We've been together
for a long time, Master.
-
Where will you go, Kichi?
-
To Ueda.
I have family there.
-
I'll go back to working
at the butcher's shop.
-
Get a steady job.
That's the best.
-
I'm sick of show business.
-
It's our last night.
Go on, make up with Otaka.
-
Let's enjoy ourselves
before we break up.
-
Sing, will you, Otaka?
-
My troupe's finally disbanded.
-
No word from Shinkichi yet?
-
Like father, like son.
So fast with the girls.
-
I'm finished this time.
-
I'll fix you a drink.
-
No sake for me.
-
Then you won't travel anymore?
-
You can stay as long as you like.
-
Shinkichi is old enough to know by now.
He'll understand.
-
He'll be back sometime or other.
-
Let's live together like a family.
-
It isn't good
to be alone all the time.
-
Let's have a drink.
-
Thank you for everything.
-
When did you get back?
-
Where have you been?
-
Why act like nothing's happened?
-
Forgive me, Master.
-
She apologized.
Why hit her?
-
You're to blame, too.
-
Don't you know
your mother worries about you?
-
What are you doing?
-
Who do you think he is?
-
The man you hit just now
is your father.
-
I have no father like him.
-
My father was a civil servant.
He's dead.
-
If my father were alive,
-
he'd never have abandoned us
for 20 years.
-
All these years it's just been us.
Right, Mother?
-
No father could be that selfish.
-
What if, out of respect for his son,
he couldn't call himself father?
-
He didn't want you to be
a traveling actor like him.
-
He wanted you to have
an education and a good job.
-
That's why he had to lie
and live in Ioneliness.
-
He's been poor,
-
but wherever he was,
he always paid for your schooling.
-
Aren't you sorry for striking
such a considerate father?
-
I'm sorry.
-
I didn't know.
-
My son has been to school.
His words make sense.
-
I abandoned him,
and now I call myself his father.
-
It's natural for him to object.
-
I'll go away again.
-
Shinkichi has accepted you
in his heart.
-
I don't want him
to feel awkward because of me.
-
Let me go as the usual carefree uncle
one last time.
-
I'll start up in business again.
If I do well, I'll return.
-
I'll be a great actor
so Shinkichi won't be ashamed of me.
-
And you can thank me
with a curtain call.
-
Will you take me with you?
-
I don't want to leave
without returning your kindness.
-
I'll work hard.
I'll start a new life.
-
Did you hear that?
How sweet!
-
Will you take care of her?
-
She's a good, gentle girl.
-
I'm sorry for hitting you.
-
Help my son become a great man.
-
Uncle?
-
Where is Uncle?
-
You mean Father?
-
He went on the road again.
-
Don't try to stop him.
-
Just be a great man.
That's all he wants.
-
Since you were born,
he's been coming here
-
with that one hope in mind.
-
Where are you going?
-
Kamisuwa.
-
And you?
-
No place in particular.
-
How about organizing
a new troupe with me?
-
I don't know if I can pull it off.
-
One more to Kamisuwa.
-
THE END
