Beskrivning
Considered one of the finest performers in world cinema, Japanese actor Takashi Shimura (1905-1982) appeared in more than 300 stage, film and television roles during his five-decade career. He is best known for his frequent collaborations with Akira Kurosawa, including major roles in the landmark classics Rashomon (1950), Ikiru (1952) and Seven Samurai (1954), and for his memorable characterizations in Ishiro Honda's Godzilla (1954) and several Kaiju sequels. This is the first complete English-language account of Shimura's work. In addition to historical and critical coverage of Shimura's life and career, it includes an extensive filmography.

Recensioner i media

“[This] is the long overdue bio of the brilliant actor. The author is to be commended not only for his research but his erudite discourse on Japanese cinema and Shimura’s role in it...this book is likely to stand as the definitive study of this versatile character actor. The meticulously compiled filmography is the most complete ever published in print or online and puts sources like IMDb to shame.”—So Cal Arts and Entertainment.
