Samurai Tears

I follow the Seven Virtues of Bushido but I am a Ronin to the bone. My interests are Martial Arts, Samurai Zen, and the Sensual Arts. "Strike Hard, Strike First, Keep the Spirit Strong."

Toshiro Mifune as Kikuchiyo in Seven Samurai (1954).  Toshiro was born in China to Japanese parents.  Although he is the most well known Japanese actor throughout the world, he was 21 when he first visited Japan.  He had 182 acting credits in his career, dating back to 1947, through 1995.  He made 16 films with director Akira Kurosawa, beginning with Drunken Angel, through Red Beard (1965) when they had a falling out and stopped working together.  Toshiro only rarely appeared in English language films, most notably the auto racing spectacle Grand Prix, and the American tv mini-series Shogun,  His other films among the best 1,001 are Drunken Angel, Stray Dog, Rashomon, and Throne of Blood, all with Kurosawa.
