Yasuzô Masumura – Saikô shukun fujin AKA The Most Valuable Wife (1959)

Another early Masumura with Wakao Ayako, based on the novel by Blue Sky Maiden’s (青空娘) Genji Keita. This time we have Wakao as the third daughter of the Nonomiya family, whose two elder sisters have married the two elder sons of the Mihara family. While Kawaguchi Hiroshi plays the third, unmarried son… so you can imagine the ensuing events. Maybe not as much fun as Ichikawa Kon’s Goodbye, Hello (あなたと私の合言葉　さようなら、今日は), also made at Daiei around the same time with the same leads and a similar story, but Masumura can do no wrong either.
