北京的西瓜 (1989)
在船桥市郊外的蔬菜市场，蔬菜店老板春三认识了中国留学生李中山，才知道原来中国留学生的生活很辛苦，于是决定帮助他们。一开始他只是随便做点好事，后来渐渐升级，连自己的生活也牺牲掉了。学生们都非常敬仰他，叫他“日本爸爸”。但是春三不管买卖的话，老婆美智的负担就加重了，结果商店和家庭都出现了危机。“能让商店就这么垮掉么？”留学生们决定帮店里干活。春三和美智流下了感动的泪水。几年后，回到中国的李中山从北京打来一个国际电话，邀请春三和美智访问中国影片根据真实故事改编，温馨幽默，生动展现了日本小镇郊区的生活和小人物的喜怒哀乐，表达了中日友谊。为了让场景生动真实，导演经常设置几人在一起说话的情景，话题又往往不同，语言不通的观众或许会对字幕感到眼花缭乱。导演大林宣彦是日本80年代新电影的重要导演之一，在《电影旬报》评选的80年代十大最佳导演中与铃木清顺、黑泽明并列第七。本片获1989年《电影旬报》十佳奖第六名。

趣闻
Beijing Watermelon is a 1989 Japanese slice of life film directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi. Based partly on true events, the film follows the relationship between a Japanese greengrocer and a group of Chinese exchange students. The film is noted for the proximity of its production and release to the Tiananmen Square massacre, which forced the cancellation of plans to shoot the Beijing-set portions of the film on-location.
Production and release
Beijing Watermelon is directed and edited by Nobuhiko Obayashi with a screenplay by Yoshihiro Ishimatsu. The plot is partly based on true events, and was produced after Obayashi and his crew met the real-life grocer and students that the film is based on while shooting another film.
In 2021, a restoration of the film was undertaken by distributor Shochiku.
