:Hearts and Flowers for Tora-san

During his travels, Tora-san gets drunk with an old man in Kyoto. Though Tora-san never fully comprehends his importance, the old man is a Living National Treasure ceramist. At his home, Tora-san makes a good impression on the old man's maid, who apparently falls in love with Tora-san.{{cite web|url=http://www.kinejun.jp/cinema/id/17208|script-title=ja:男はつらいよ 寅次郎あじさいの恋|access-date=2010-01-21|language=Japanese|publisher=Kinema Junpo|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120309142516/http://www.kinejun.jp/cinema/id/17208|archive-date=2012-03-09}}{{cite web |first=Stuart |last=Galbraith IV |authorlink= Stuart Galbraith IV|url=http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/23583/tora-san-29-hearts-and-flowers-for-tora-san/|title=Tora-san 29: Hearts and Flowers For Tora-san (Region 3) |date=2006-09-02|access-date=2010-01-21|publisher=DVD Talk}}{{cite web|url=http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/title/305831|title=OTOKO WA TSURAI YO TORAJIRO AJISAI NO KOI (1982)|access-date=2010-01-21|publisher=British Film Institute|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121017232122/http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/title/305831|archive-date=2012-10-17|url-status=dead}}

Stuart Galbraith IV writes that the film "is no better than average for this series, but then again this series' average is awfully high." He notes that this is the first episode in the series in which Tora-san's nephew Mitsuo plays a significant role in the plot. The German-language site molodezhnaja gives Hearts and Flowers for Tora-san three and a half out of five stars.{{cite web |url=http://www.molodezhnaja.ch/torasan30.htm|title=Hearts and Flowers for Tora-San|access-date=2010-01-21|publisher= www.molodezhnaja.ch|language=German}}
