Japanese film director, screenwriter, and actor
Kajirō Yamamoto
Born (1902-03-15 ) 15 March 1902Died 21 September 1974(1974-09-21) (aged 72 ) Nationality Japanese Occupation(s ) Film director, screenwriter, actor
Kajirō Yamamoto (山本 嘉次郎 Yamamoto Kajirō was a Japanese film director, screenwriter, and actor who was known for his war films and comedies and as the mentor of Akira Kurosawa . The combined list of his efforts as a director for documentaries, silent, and sound films includes over 90 film titles during his lifetime.
Early life [ edit ]
Born in Tokyo , Yamamoto attended Keio University , where he helped form a film appreciation society.[1] Yoshiko Okada , but that only earned the wrath of his family, who disowned him.[1]
He worked as an actor on the stage, joined Nikkatsu as an assistant director, and finally made his directorial debut in 1924 at Tōa Kinema .[1] Photo Chemical Laboratories (P. C. L.) in 1934, where he first made a name filming the comedies of Kenichi Enomoto .[2] Toho company, Yamamoto helmed realist dramas such as Tsuzurikata kyōshitsu Uma Hideko Takamine ), and war films such as Hawai Mare oki kaisen [2]
After World War II , he continued directing films, but increasingly worked in television and radio.[2]
He is now mostly known as the mentor of Akira Kurosawa , who served as his assistant director on 17 films.[3]
He is also responsible for the career of Toshiro Mifune . In 1947, one of Mifune's friends who worked for the Photography Department of Toho Productions suggested Mifune try out for the Photography Department. He was accepted for a position as an assistant cameraman. At this time, a large number of Toho actors, after a prolonged strike , had formed a separate company, Shintoho . Toho then organized a "new faces" contest to find new talent. Mifune's friends submitted an application and photo, without his knowledge. He was accepted, along with 48 others (out of roughly 4000 applicants), and allowed to take a screen test for Kajiro Yamamoto. Instructed to mime anger, he drew from his wartime experiences. Yamamoto took a liking to Mifune, recommending him to director Senkichi Taniguchi .[4]
