I was just checking him out the other day in Miyamoto Musashi: Ichijoji no ketto (1964 - small part, but you can't miss him). I think my favorite performance of his was as Raiko Minamoto in Shindo's Kuroneko. And of course Hanzo the Razor: The Snare, Samurai Spy, Sword of Doom, Pitfall -- a vital force in Japanese cinema.Patrick Gallowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01666224685708217873noreply@blogger.com
