宽永七年德川幕府第三代将军家光时，午夜当时由于实施中央集权，午夜削弱了许多诸侯大名的权力，曾经叱咤一时的武士阶级很多失业沦为浪人。残酷的现实使得无所事事的浪人经常跑到诸侯家，表示要切腹自杀，而势力被削弱无力招揽更多浪人的诸侯只得用钱打发他们走，于是这成为当时流行的敲诈手段。一天井伊家来了一位名叫千千岩求女的浪人，他也提出相同要求，家臣决定将计就计，让他切腹，结果千千岩求女在极度痛苦中咬舌死去。几个月以后又有一名叫津云半四郎（仲代达矢饰）的老浪人前来要求借井伊家宝地切腹自杀。其原因也是不堪生活的困苦，井伊家老（三国连太郎饰）出面。在切腹之前，津云要求讲下自己这辈子的故事……

回复 :这是个忙碌的时代：学生忙考试，家长忙孩子；没结婚的忙恋爱，结了婚的忙离婚；没工作的忙找工作，有工作的忙升职；没钱的忙赚钱，有钱的忙花钱。哪怕是个懒汉，也在忙着混日子。总之，谁都在忙，有的忙正事，有的忙瞎事。《天下太忙》讲述的是一个普通百姓家庭的故事：事业有成的大儿子秦业在妻子与情人之间游走；身为记者的二女儿在家庭与事业中摇摆；好高骛远的三儿子在理想与现实中挣扎。总之，他们都在为各自的事情忙碌不停，唯独冷落了他们的母亲刘老太太，甚至连刘老太太得了癌症他们都不知道。此外，还有两个小混混贯穿了影片的始末，与整个忙忙碌碌的人群交集在一起，生出了许多让人啼笑皆非，却满含人生哲理的有趣故事。该剧以喜剧的形式揭示了一个深刻的主题，嬉笑玩乐间，让你有一种莫名的感动。

回复 :A comic celebration of dreamers and their dreams, LIVING IN OBLIVION is the second film written and directed by Tom DiCillo. With a tone that teeters somewhere between Kafka and the Marx Brothers, it chronicles the hilarious misadventures of a group of people who have joined together to accomplish one of the most difficult goals imaginable - the making of a low-budget independent film. With an innovative and surprising structure that shifts fluidly between the movie being made and those making it, the film offers a rare and accurate -- if comically heightened -- look behind-the-scenes, with the people who make the scenes. How they make them -- and the fact that they manage to make them at all -- is what LIVING IN OBLIVION is all about.Starring Steve Buscemi as director Nick Reve, LIVING IN OBLIVION highlights a day on the set of Nick's film where everything that could possibly go wrong, actually does. Struggling against ever-escalating odds to maintain his integrity and his sanity, Nick is both helped and hindered by his bumbling, if well-intentioned crew, headed by his cinematographer Wolf (Dermot Mulroney), a cameraman whose leather gear suggests that he is more inspired by Billy Idol than Sven Nykvist; a leading lady, Nicole (Catherine Keener), a talented but neurotic actress who is involved in a romance and a rivalry with her leading man, Chad Palomino (James Le Gros); an iron-willed assistant director, Wanda (Danielle Von Zerneck); and, for the first time ever on-screen, a Gaffer.
