![Diary of a Mad Old Man](https://i3.wp.com/image.tmdb.org/t/p/w185/9POcyKrUFxBDemQcEjXNHvGS29d.jpg)
Plot
Utsugi, a seventy-seven-year-old man of refined tastes who is recovering from a stroke, discovers that, while his body is decaying, his libido still rages on -- unwittingly sparked by the gentle, kindly attentions of his daughter-in-law Satsuko, a chic, flashy dancer with a shady past. Pitiful and ridiculous as he is, Utsugi is without a trace of self-pity, and his diary shines with self-effacing good humor.
