Daijōbu, My Friend (だいじょうぶマイ・フレンド, Daijōbu, Mai Furendo, lit. "All Right, My Friend") is a 1983 Japanese film starring Peter Fonda as a superhero called Gonzy Traumerai. The film, written and directed by Ryu Murakami, is based on his own novel of the same name and published the same year; it is a parody of such films as Superman, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, and Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

Music

The film features a soundtrack by Ryuichi Sakamoto, its second film work after Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence, although the film was released before the latter.
