Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })One Wonderful Sunday is a 1947 film directed by Akira Kurosawa.The film opens with a young man named Yuzo waiting for his fiancée, Masako. Yuzo and Masako once had dreams of opening a coffee shop together, but then they were separated by the war. Yuzo made it home alive, but now the two of them are working poverty-level jobs and living with other people (he with an old friend, her with her sister). They do not have enough money to get an apartment so they only see each other on Sundays, the one day a week they have off. On this day they have only ¥35, not very much money, for the whole day. The two young lovers try to have as much fun as they can.

Breaking the Fourth Wall

Breaking the Fourth Wall: The only instance of this in the Kurosawa canon, and a quite startling one. The couple, having failed to get tickets to the Schubert concert thanks to dirtbag scalpers, have made their way to an empty amphitheater. They elect to pretend that they're listening to a Schubert concert. Yuzo gets up to "conduct", but loses the spirit and shrugs his shoulders in despair. Masako jumps onto the stage to cheer him up. When this fails, she turns and looks straight at the camera and urges the movie audience to clap for them, and for all the young people in post-war Japan who can't afford to get married. Yuzo also looks at the camera hopefully. After this, Schubert music comes up on the soundtrack. See also Clap Your Hands If You Believe below.

All Women Are Prudes: You would think that there's one thing Yuzo and Masako could do to pass the time on a Sunday afternoon that doesn't cost any money at all. Yet when Yuzo makes an aggressive sexual advance to Masako in his room, she recoils. It might be because of his demeanor, as he's pretty bitter and pissed off at this point, but her rejection only makes him more pissed off.
