Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Life of a Horse Trader is a 1951 film from Japan directed by Keigo Kimura.Yone (Toshiro Mifune) is a horse trader who lives in a small village on the northernmost Japanese island of Hokkaido. He is a rough-and-tumble type who is prone to getting roaring drunk, starting bar brawls, and losing all his money at dice. The only problem is that he has a sickly wife, Haruno, and an infant son, Daihei. Haruno is well aware of her husband's drinking problem. When she dies of TB, she has clutched to her person a small amount of cash, money she has saved to keep her husband fron drinking it away, as well as a note saying "Take care of Daihei."And so Yone does. He remains a blustering loudmouth, but he cuts down on the drinking and tries to be a good father to Daihei. As the years roll by Daihei grows up to be a shy, scholarly boy, with an intellect that suggests he should aim higher than succeeding his father as a horse trader.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Machiko Kyo plays Yuki, a local geisha who is in love with Yone. | |

Bar Brawl | |
| Life of a Horse Trader / int_716d9138 | comment |
Bar Brawl: Yone starts one after accusing the weaselly horse traders, apparently correctly, of cheating at dice. There's quite a mood shift when Yone, who's in the middle of pummeling people, is notified that his wife is deathly ill. | |

Ambiguous Time Period | |
| Life of a Horse Trader / int_7eb2bc15 | comment |
Ambiguous Time Period: Daihei listens to a radio and people ride tricycles and bicycles, which suggests the 1920s or 30s. Yet there are no cars and most of the village is illiterate, which should not be the case in 1930s Japan. | |

Answer Cut | |
| Life of a Horse Trader / int_fd16495f | comment |
Answer Cut: The other horse traders bet how many wooden clogs Yone will buy from the shoe salesman. One says two, another says three, and the third says Yone is excessively generous, so he will buy five. The film then cuts to showing Yone walking around with about a dozen pairs of shoes that he has strung over his shoulder on a rope. | |
