Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Passing Fancy is a 1933 film directed by Yasujiro Ozu.Kihachi is an illiterate laborer, a single father who lives in Tokyo with his 8-year-old son, Tomio. Kihachi works at a brewery along with his buddy, Jiro. One day while leaving a dramatic reading they run into a pretty young woman named Harue. Harue apparently is homeless (no explanation why), and Kihachi, who is instantly smitten, decides to help her. He gets her a place to stay with Otome, his friend who owns the local bar.Otome soon begins to act maternally towards her young guest. Meanwhile, Kihachi makes romantic overtures to Harue, but is disappointed to find out that she prefers taller, handsomer Jiro. That plot thread is short-circuited however when Kihachi gets some bad news about his son.

The Cameo: Chishu Ryu, who was in almost every Ozu movie and starred in most of them, is seen briefly as a passenger on the ferry boat in the last scene.

The Ditz: Kihachi is kind-hearted and he means well but he isn't very bright. When the ferry boat passes by some land he asks if it's America. Later he says "does this piece of land connect to Tokyo?" When Tomio gets sick with enteritis Kihachi gives him sake which exacerbates his symptoms.
