Eburi is a 36 year-old man. Nothing enthuses him any more. While being drunk, he promises to contribute a story to a magazine. When he sobers down, he decides to write about the life of a salaried employee like himself who is very ordinary, not particularly talented. The following is his story: In 1949, Eburi gets married to Natsuko. His monthly salary is 8,000 yen and hers 4,000 yen. Therefore, both have to work to support themselves. Eburi has developed a habituIl tendency to pester around when he gets drunk. One year after their marriage, son Shosuke is born. In 1959, Eburi's mother dies in despair of her husband who has become listless due to the several ups and downs of gaining big profits and going bankrupt. His father is still alive and Eburi is enable to find a way to pay his father's debts. He is doubtful if he can make his wife and child happy. Nevertheless, he has somehow managed to survive so far, living in one of the houses at the employee housing quarters. He gives the title "The Elegant Life of Mr. Everyman" to his story of half novel and half essay style. When it is published, it receives the Naoki Literary Prize (the award given in memory of popular writer Naoki Sanjugo). At a party to celebrate his award, he gets drunk and pesters around. Notes The film is based on a novel written in the style of an essay under the same title by Yamaguchi Hitomi, depicting everyday life of a man categorized as "During-the-war Generation" who spent school days during the war and get married to start new life in the struggling post-war era. "Everyman" in the title means an average salaried employee who makes up an overwhelming majority of the city population in Japan, and "The Elegant Life" indicates sarcasm on betterment of the standard of living of ordinary salaried employees accompanied with Japan's economic growth after only a decade from the destroyed post-war period. As depicted in the film, the author Yamaguchi Hitomi was awarded the Naoki Literature Prize for this story. When he established himself well enough to become independent, he quit working as a salaried employee. Director Okamoto Kihachi and the leading actor Kobayashi Keiju belong to the same generation as the author. Exploiting innovative effects such as inserting animation sequences, the film humorously presents compassion of a middle-aged salaried employee. Kobayashi Keiju, who was originally noted for his excellent portrayal of salaried employee, won the best leading actor award of the Mainichi Film Contest for his superb performance in this picture.。《地狱厨房》原版是英国选秀节目，后来被美国FOX电视台购买并重新制作，美国版本的《地狱厨房》于2005年正式开播。《地狱厨房》的主角是英国名厨戈登.拉姆齐，他是世界上七次蝉联米其林三星头衔的厨师，也是全球收入最高的厨师写过几本畅销的美食小说，经常在摄影机前展现他对于精品菜肴的苛刻程度，而且性格火爆，增加了不少节目看点。《地狱厨房》的走红，完全揭开了观众对大厨师的探究，而这个节目的本身也让观众亲眼看到了，参赛选手的蜕变。具体说来就是：它先说明厨师是怎么炼出来的，然后在说明美食是怎么变出来的。。初见高雪儿便心生爱慕的天才厨神朱必胜男扮女装混进了老宁波饭庄帮助高小姐解决饭庄危机，奈何误会不断，二人之间展开了一段纠缠不断的爱恋。就在朱必胜和高雪儿感情升温的时候，一场因天上天汤引发的巨大危机悄悄降临，二人的感情面临生死考验，最终两个人能否打破误会，拯救中毒的众人重振老宁波饭庄。。
