When he sobers down, he decides to write about the life of a salaried employee like himself who is very ordinary, not particularly talented. The following is his story: In 1949, Eburi gets married to Natsuko. His monthly salary is 8,000 yen and hers 4,000 yen. Therefore, both have to work to support themselves. Eburi has developed a habituIl tendency to pester around when he gets drunk. One year after their marriage, son Shosuke is born. In 1959, Eburi's mother dies in despair of her husband who has become listless due to the several ups and downs of gaining big profits and going bankrupt. His father is still alive and Eburi is enable to find a way to pay his father's debts. He is doubtful if he can make his wife and child happy. Nevertheless, he has somehow managed to survive so far, living in one of the houses at the employee housing quarters. He gives the title "The Elegant Life of Mr. Everyman" to his story of half novel and half essay style. When it is published, it receives the Naoki Literary Prize (the award given in memory of popular writer Naoki Sanjugo). At a party to celebrate his award, he gets drunk and pesters around. Notes The film is based on a novel written in the style of an essay under the same title by Yamaguchi Hitomi, depicting everyday life of a man categorized as "During-the-war Generation" who spent school days during the war and get married to start new life in the struggling post-war era. "Everyman" in the title means an average salaried employee who makes up an overwhelming majority of the city population in Japan, and "The Elegant Life" indicates sarcasm on betterment of the standard of living of ordinary salaried employees accompanied with Japan's economic growth after only a decade from the destroyed post-war period. As depicted in the film, the author Yamaguchi Hitomi was awarded the Naoki Literature Prize for this story. When he established himself well enough to become independent, he quit working as a salaried employee. Director Okamoto Kihachi and the leading actor Kobayashi Keiju belong to the same generation as the author. Exploiting innovative effects such as inserting animation sequences, the film humorously presents compassion of a middle-aged salaried employee. Kobayashi Keiju, who was originally noted for his excellent portrayal of salaried employee, won the best leading actor award of the Mainichi Film Contest for his superb performance in this picture.。教堂中，一对新人——Melinda（詹妮弗·洛芙·休伊特 Jennifer Love Hewitt 饰）和Jim（大卫·康拉德 David Conrad 饰）正在举行婚礼。突然，有一个谁都看不到人向Melinda寻求帮助。原来Melinda从小就象她祖母一样，具有一种和鬼魂沟通的神秘能力，祖母告诉她这些鬼魂之所以不肯离开，是因为他们和活着的人之间还有未完成的事，并把他们叫做“土地幽灵”。因为Melinda具有与鬼魂沟通的这种特殊能力，所以常常有鬼魂来找她帮忙，并进行一些超自然的调查。正因为此，Melinda经常遭到人们的非议和质疑，但当她发现自己不仅能帮助死者，也同样对在世的人给予援手时，她知道自己的特异功能不是负担而是一笔财富……。正值青春期的少女艾玛（苏菲·瓦瓦希尔 Sophie Vavasseur 饰）因小事与父母发生争吵，继而用玻璃碎片割破自己的手掌。在此之后，父母子女的关系虽有所松动，但是新的危机已悄悄展开。艾玛是不是会做出些奇怪的举止，这令父母异常担心，于是只得将艾玛留在家中接受教育。期间他们尝试带女儿去看具有催眠本领的心理医生，谁知医生最终猝死艾玛的膝上。艾玛自感自己已被魔鬼附体，因此不顾崇尚科学的父母的反对，执意求助于因驱魔失败而被革除神职的舅舅基斯（道·布莱德利 Doug Bradley 饰）。 基斯似乎渐渐证实了艾玛的猜测，而她体内那股邪恶的力量也变得越来越强大……。
