1954 Mercedes-Benz 220 'Ponton' [W180.010] Jokyo (1960)	DynaMike	Both 220 and 220 S had these double chrome strips, the 219 was the only 6-cylinder Ponton with a single strip. The 220 S also had some thin chrome strips accentuating the fender mouldings, and I don't think they are on this car.	2016-01-28 20:21
1954 Mercedes-Benz 220 'Ponton' [W180.010] Jokyo (1960)	bob dieck	Double chrommed stripes below door, only 220 S. The absence of plate lights, although difficult to confirm, suggests a 1959 model. -- Last edit: 2016-01-28 11:51:01	2016-01-28 11:50
1956 Plymouth Belvedere 4-door Sedan [P-28-3] Jokyo (1960)	Big dave	I see it as a 1956 Plymouth Belvedere.	2016-01-28 11:20
unknown Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	Mmmh… Daihatsu SX 1954 or Kurogane KF 1955. (I need a rather obsolete model—no door—but equipped with two headlights already, and for the moment I only see these two models fitting.) (I'm using the data coming from this extraordinary French site, 2000gt.net. You can begin anywhere, or explore through the site map.)	2016-01-28 04:29
1959 Toyopet Crown Taxi [RS20] Jokyo (1960)	rjluna2	Lateef wrote The one on the left is a 1957 Chevy. Indeed, it does looks like 1957 Chevrolet Two-Ten.	2016-01-28 03:00
1954 Toyota FA Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	Maybe should I add a special name or a special bodymaker?	2016-01-28 02:55
1955 Chevrolet One-Fifty 4 door sedan Jokyo (1960)	rjluna2	I am thinking of 1955 Chevrolet One-Fifty	2016-01-28 02:48
unknown Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	With its "high bed" (I don't know if I make me understand), it looks indeed like a T2000. The problem is, as far as I know, the T2000 arrived only in 1962.	2016-01-28 02:34
unknown Jokyo (1960)	carcrasher88	I'm thinking a Mazda, but I'm not entirely sure. The door certainly looks like that of a T1500/T2000.	2016-01-28 02:08
1954 Toyota FA Jokyo (1960)	carcrasher88	Yeah, sure looks like an FA to me.	2016-01-28 02:00
1957 Fuji Rabbit S-101 D Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	I called it "Fuji / Rabbit S-101 D" but most of our Rabbits are given "Rabbit" as make. We should have a pow-wow about the naming of this brand.	2016-01-28 01:30
unknown Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	There is this Daihatsu SKD7 which has a lot of features in common with ours.	2016-01-28 01:00

Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	is an anthology movie (portmanteau) composed of three stories centred on selfish and very greedy women as main characters. The first, "Mimi o kamitagaru onna" (The Woman Who Seems to Want to Nibble Ears) is directed by Yasuzô Masumura, and played mainly by Ayako Wakao (Kimi, the woman who etc.) and Hiroshi Kawaguchi (Tabata, wealthy heir of an industrial). Kimi spends her time in tricking men, not according what they long for but taking in an unfair exchange their money she invests in the company owned by one of her would-be lover, ageing industrialist, whose son she is in love with, and teasing the same way. The romance between the two youngsters, possible at a moment, will fail. The second, "Mono o takaku uritsukeru onna" (The Woman Who Sells at a High Price), has Kon Ichikawa for metteur en scène. Fujiko Yamamoto (Tsuneko) and Eiji Funakoshi (Yasushi) are the protagonists, with Hitomi Nozoe for a bit part in the end. A depressed popular writer meets a mysterious lady (one think to the princess in Ugetsu monogatari) by the see, who let him follow her to her mansion. Struck by her charm and appearent distress, he wants to help her and buy the house. But things are not what they seem to be. On more than one level. The third story, "Koi o wasurete ita onna" (The Woman Who Forgot Love), directed by Kôzaburô Yoshimura, is played by Machiko Kyô (Omitsu), Junko Kanô (Yumiko) and Jun Negishi (Kanemitsu). Socially active but lonely, a hotel owneress (Machiko Kyô) runs her business with an inflexible greed, whatever happens around her (her sister-in-law going to be married, a kid having been struck by a three-wheeler, all is good to make money or keep it safe). But one night, an old flame of hers (her only love) is back and begs for help. She breaks down, provides money and security to come, just before the police irrupts and arrests the guy. But the event triggers something in her and she changes her ways, dramatically. Three stories based on a loosely same character, three women stubbornly greedy, though their ages are spanning from about 20 to around 40. But three ways for the development and the ending: the young semi-whore will part from her lover and continue her scheme; the lady who was not what she pretended to be will find in her victim someone at her measure, and they'll reach to an agreement; the lonely heart will find that being good while being wealthy is a proper way to behave. Also three ways to tell the story, though the most disturbing and somehow clumsy in the filming and editing is Ichikawa's middle section. But one way to show: the best. The acting is great, Ayako Wakao, Fujiko Yamamoto, and Machiko Kyô are impressive. The rest of the cast is level with them. The music and the cinematography (Setsuo Kobayashi, Hiroshi Murai, Kazuo Miyakawa) are very fine. It was a great pleasure to watch this gem. Film à sketches japonais qui n'a pas, semble-t-il, connu de sortie française, et c'est grand dommage pour les cinéphiles de nos latitudes, car les trois épisodes signés Masumura, Ichikawa et Yoshimura valent chacun leur pesant de pellicule. Trois actrices très différentes pour trois premiers rôles proches dans leurs données de départ — femmes de tête et d'argent — donnent corps à trois histoires savamment menées. Si je puis me permettre, dégottez-moi ça et regardez-le, ces 100 minutes en valent la peine. Les génériques sur les différents wikipedia comme sur IMDb nous foutent dedans, et je n'ai pas encore fini de me dépatouiller de cette affaire, mais j'en viendrai à bout, foi de moi-même. Peu de véhicules importants, faciles à identifier, je pense. Mais les triporteurs vont poser d'intéressants problèmes aux amateurs. I forgot to say that the writing credits go to Toshio Yasumi, based on Shôfû Muramatsu's novel (or short stories?). -- Last edit: 2016-01-28 21:49:27	2016-01-28 00:42
1954 Mercedes-Benz 220 'Ponton' [W180.010] Jokyo (1960)	cl82	I think it has enough chrome and the longer rear/trunk, so it's probably the six-cylinder version, so either W180 or W128.	2016-01-28 00:41

1955 Chevrolet One-Fifty 4 door sedan Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	Along the sequence, first line is for the Austin-Healey, and Ayako Wakao as Kimi, and Hiroshi Kawaguchi as young master Tabata.	2016-01-27 23:10

1959 Datsun Truck 1000 [221] Jokyo (1960)	Lateef	It seems to have the new front bumper but still the old cargo area, so rather a 1959 221.	2016-01-27 22:56
1959 Toyopet Crown Taxi [RS20] Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	Another one, I guess, at the begining of the movie: Ep. 1 00:15:11 (With something US—or Opel?—on the left.)	2016-01-27 22:53

1956 Toyopet 1500 Truck [RK23] Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	Not a Masterline and probably not a Stout yet, I think it is a 1956+ [RK23] or 1958+ [RK30]. By the way, it is the end of this series of pics, with utilities background and Ayako Wakao as chief interest (for anybody but us). -- Last edit: 2016-01-27 22:48:32	2016-01-27 22:47

1958 Austin-Healey 100/6 2-seater [BN6] Jokyo (1960)	dsl	Splitting 100/6 and 3000 Mk1 almost impossible without dating evidence - the only clue is the grille badge which has similar style and size in both cases with lightning flash behind the numbers (though may have been red numbering on 3000, but not sure if this is totaly reliable clue). I think this one says 100-S~~ (for 100-Six) - the 100S itself was something different. As a 2-seater = April 58+ BN6. LHD stuff in J has been a favourite topic on a few pages - basically everything J made in aftermath of WW2 was RHD basic poverty stuff - anything exciting was LHD US imports, so LHD became a symbol of prestige which stayed in favour for a long time afterwards despite its incongruity.	2016-01-27 16:34
1958 Austin-Healey 100/6 2-seater [BN6] Jokyo (1960)	DidierF	I found it bizarre, not to have an Austin-Healey in Tokyo, but to have it LHD. (It's a 3000, not a 100/6, right?)	2016-01-27 07:26
