(In Japanese with English subtitles)
DRAMA
Adapted from the novel by Shohei Ooka has the set up after the ending of WWII that has Michiko Akiyama (Kinuyo Tanaka) inheriting property that belonged to her family for many generations. At the same time she is married to someone who simply does not love her back his name is Tadao Akiyama (Masayuki Mori). Tadao does however mixes himself up with another already married lady, Tomiko Ono (Yukiko Todoroki) married to factory owner, Eiji Ono (Sô Yamamura) both have a daughter Yukiko. Then one day Michiko's cousin, Tsutomu Miyaji (Akihiko Katayama) have just return from the army and he is then allowed to stay with them. And viewers are wondering why out of all places why Tsutomu Miyaji stopped there, and it mainly because of the village nearby called "Musashino" hence the title.
When there were no soap operas, the only soap operas available to watch are in movie form. I just did not care too much the way it ended despite there were no surprises.
