Dir Naruse Mikio (1953)
Unusual for Naruse (as you will see as the series unfolds), salaryman Ken Uehara is on the receiving end, as wife Mieko Takamine sleeps in, eschews housework, and even leaves hairs in his bento lunches ? and who, when she finds out about an affair with his widowed secretary, seems to get even more unsympathetic. Based on a novel by Fumiko Hayashi.

原作は林芙美子の短編小説『茶色の目』
