I lived in Japan for two years and can say that The Japanese are the healthiest and most gracefully attractive people as they age. They are what the rest of us aspire for as we enter our golden years. I blame their amazing diet, active lifestyle and sense of social purpose. We in the west could learn much from the Japanese way of life.

@Cedar Woods Tatsuya Nakadai is that actor for me where you can't tell that its him acting, his characters always seem so real. I also find it interesting that he acted as Hanshiro Tsugumo, a 50 year old character, at 30 and as Hidetora Ichimonji, an 80 year old character, at 50. Harakiri is tied with Whiplash as my favorite film of all time and Nakadai is one of the reasons for that.

What a pleasure this fine interview was. Nakadai was always one of my very favorite actors when saturating in the 70's with all the great Japanese Samurai films. Unfortunately for me, the interviewer did not explore the "Hot Eyes" aspect of Nakadai's screen persona, and for which he was duly famous. How did he come to that and what were his techniques to make it so compelling? Glad to see emphais on Sword Of Doom, a truly powerful film where one can sense the sword's soul and menace in and of itself, unlike any other film I've seen - there was a zen aspect to it. Thanks so much for posting this excellent insight of a truly great actor.

Stuff he did in "The Human Condition" was actually dangerous for his health, or even life. He was beaten and almost got hypothermia. And there was no insurance in such cases back then. So it is funny when I hear modern actors saying "I like doing my stunts". Tatsuya Nakadai says "Aww, that's cute"

A good interview, although I would have liked to hear about Nakadai's work with Kon Ichikawa (2 films) and Hideo Gosha (5 films).

Believe it or not, Machiko Kyo (the woman from Rashomon) is still living in her 90's.

仲代さんの若い頃の日本映画は本当に誉れ高いものだった。今と大違い!
Tbf, japanese now is garbage if we compare to the old japan movies. But the some pretty good.
One of the greatest actors of all time
Sanjuro finale A TRULY SUPERB FINAL SCENE = 1 Take. Now... Re shoots and re shoots and director changes over "creative ideas". These people were talented artists the like we will never see again. I'm still in awe. 1 take. Abayo...
N to think they using real sharp sword to cut the blood tube
Truly a legendary actor and person! Also, I my opinion, I believe Shintaro Katsu was under-rated.
A very good actor who played in major productions and much cheaper ones , but all very pleasurable !
I watched Harakiri today, and i have watched every Kurosawa film that he's been in. He is an incredible actor, no less talented than Mifune, and listening to him and his experiences is so enriching and wonderful.
He was so good in Yojimbo
聞き手と語り手、会話はピンポンと言いますが(まあこれは会話とは違いますが)、聞き手のキャラが仲代達矢のキャラと、「気」が循環して、良い話が、良い感じで聞こえてきます。人間て良いですね。貴重な映像でした。
Mesmerising interview; what a wonderful way this old actor has about him. A true master.
@BirdArvid. Who impressed you more, Toshiro Mifune or Tatsuya Nakadai?
@@hugh8861 Mifune of course, but I love Nakadai too. BUt there is no one in the whole wild world like MifuneToshiro, trust me.
the part were Tatsuya Nakadai say he thinks he nearing the end to that i say no its just the beginning
what a legend...
Nakadai Tatsuya est un des plus talentueux et élégants acteurs du cinéma mondial. De plus il vieillit bien.
Not only is he an extraordinary and talented actor (unfortunately unknown in the West), but he knew how to choose the best for his career and act in freedom.
What a wonderful man and what an amazing actor.
this interview is so classy, great interviewer, the questions were great and it was wonderful seeing him reminisce about Kurosawa and other great actors and directors.
He said it himself....Harakiri was the best one....
No matter how I respect and truely admire Akira Kurosawa as one of the best directors of all time, "Harakiri" is my favorite Japanese movie and in my top ever. Hearing mr Nakadai explaining about the swords being real in "Harakiri" and how the weight affected the feeling of holding them, anyone can easily see the outcome of such a choice... masterful work!
Best actor ever. no doublt about that. yes even better then mifune. in harakiri it was soeomething out of space. his acting is so good even in space everyone worship him. im sersious about that. nakadai please come to israel
RAN and Harakiri are two of the greatest performances by an actor ever put to film.

My absolute favorite actor
What a pleasure this fine interview was. Nakadai was always one of my very favorite actors when saturating in the 70's with all the great Japanese Samurai films. Unfortunately for me, the interviewer did not explore the "Hot Eyes" aspect of Nakadai's screen persona, and for which he was duly famous. How did he come to that and what were his techniques to make it so compelling? Glad to see emphais on Sword Of Doom, a truly powerful film where one can sense the sword's soul and menace in and of itself, unlike any other film I've seen - there was a zen aspect to it. Thanks so much for posting this excellent insight of a truly great actor.
Well into his 80's, still handsome, erudite, witty - I can only hope to age even partially as well as this great, great actor. I just watched his titanic performance in "The Human Condition" and then there's "Ran" and "Seppuku" as well, among so many others.
Stuff he did in "The Human Condition" was actually dangerous for his health, or even life. He was beaten and almost got hypothermia. And there was no insurance in such cases back then. So it is funny when I hear modern actors saying "I like doing my stunts". Tatsuya Nakadai says "Aww, that's cute"
Tom Cruise: I do my own stunts Tatsuya Nakadai: Hold my saké...
仲代さん本っ当に良い声だなぁ、、、、素晴らしい！ 近い内また無名塾の舞台観に行きます、楽しみです！！
an amazing actor who was in a lot of great movies
and still around, too.
Amazing actor
I think Nakadai showed his stuff most in Kobayashi's films as Mifune did in Kurosawa's films.
Agreed
If there is a cinema hall of fame, a close up of his expressive peepers should be a main display.
I'm always mesmerized watching this! His presence itself is breathtaking, while in the back of mind I'm picturing his roles in Sword of Doom, Ran, Kagemusha, Harakiri, High and Low, Yojimbo, and so on...
This was excellent. Nakadai San comes across as a thoroughly decent person. Thanks for this
What a legend!
Amazing interview. I could watch hours of him speaking about the movies, directors and acting...just amazing. Does anyone know where I can find more about him and the directors? I dont mean movies, but interviews, stories etc. and Harakiri and RAN are just masterpieces, before I forget.
Seppuku.
@@m.c.b.4323 Yeah but he's talking about the title of the film not the more respectable name of the act.
What an amazing and enlightening interview. Thank you very much. Such a pleasure to watch and listen to.
誠実な俳優である仲代達矢さんのすばらしさを理解できるファンが、日本人以外にもいる事を知って驚き、嬉しいです。 また、質問者の日本語能力も、完璧です！ この質問者がすばらしいので、仲代達矢さんは、まるで日本人を相手に自然に話しているかのように、誠実な人柄が滲み出ながら、素直に質問に答えています。 この質問者のような人が存在している事自体が、とても驚かされました。 この動画は、貴重な歴史的資料です。 大変ありがたいです。
Weird me thinks 86 year old him looks better than when he was young!
He looks gorgeous, doesn't he?
Wow. Like a whirlwind taking in and sharing so much incredible Japanese film history. He lived it. We are the beneficiaries of that wisdom.
This is my first time to see the legendary 🙇 Thank you for this cool program!!!🙂👍
I think he is one of the best actor.
仲代さん、存在感大きかったなぁ。影武者も乱も公開当時、10数回見ました。 3十数年ぶりに見たら物凄く印象が違いましたね。乱は30年くらい先どりした映画。黒澤明の日本人場馴れしたエネルギーにやっと日本人が馴染んできた、という感想です。 私自身も。
Magnificent! Thank you so much for this brilliant interview of my favorite actor.
i only recently had discovered nakadai and started watching his films, and already he’s within my top 3 favorite actors of all time. i’ve watched at least ten of his movies so far within such a short span of time, and they’re all just incredible pieces of work: ran… sword of doom… harakiri… the human condition… belladonna of sadness… yojimbo… the list amazingly goes on and on. such a legend. not to be a downer, but i’m going to be shattered when this man passes.
Just discovered him and Toshiro Mifune along with Kurosawa and Hideo Gosha. Amazing. Now I’m reading about feudal Japan. Sengoku period is a huge interest now. Ran and sword of doom is forever tattooed on my brain.
i also recently discovered him and am studying his work to improve my acting!!!
頭の良い人同士の会話。 思い遣りのある人同士の対話。
This was an epic interview. Nakadai San is such a tremendous actor!
This is amazing, thanks a lot for sharing!
You're welcome!
thanks for sharing these rare videos
Come to Brazil, Nakadai-san!
"The human condition" Trilogy..........His best ever performance........he is such a genius,God gifted actor Japanese cinema has ever produced ...... Sometimes I really wonder, is he portray natural acting or method acting...........
Right now on Harakiri ..Many more to go. Might watch this interview again later😍
What a privilege to listen to this particular interview! Life is so fleeting, one must capture the opportunities, ask the right questions and garner the insight before it passes just like the wind. What a rich life! Aaron Gerow! Or should I say Professor Aaron Gerow. The interviewer himself has achieved a significant resume of accomplishments that is worthy of an interview. Of course they would arrange the best in order to interview a man like Tatsuya Nakadai. I thoroughly enjoyed this!
生きる伝説
Incredible. Thank you so much for this.
One of my favourite actors. Who in their right mind down-votes this?
Great interview! Thx. Greetings from Chile!
great interview!
36:50 that worked perfect if you think about it. Shows money isn't everything and in the end it seems that he won playing some of the greatest roles ever!
what an amazing person! too bad we couldnt have interview with great Toshiro Mifune
There is a nice interview with Toshiro Mifune on youtube, actually. You can see and learn a lot about the real man. kzhead.info/sun/qaaNgK5_jqaml40/bejne.html
@@42kellys thanks for the heads up I'm headed there now!
@@sonofaredshirt8329 I am sorry, it seems the video was deleted. I wanted to check which interview I put here and it was not available anymore. They must have taken it off, sorry.
@@42kellys that's very kind of you to get in touch, funny I found out immediately then tried to return to let you know, but I couldn't remember under whose comments I messaged you. LOL my enthusiasm for a new Toshiro Mifune interview got the better of me! Cheers.
@@sonofaredshirt8329 Well, there are some interviews but sadly they are all only in Japanese, so we cannot understand them. That is why I only directed to you to the one with real English subtitles which was unfortuantely removed since then. As you noticed, I wrote that answer long ago. it's a pity it was such a wonderful interview.
A good interview, although I would have liked to hear about Nakadai's work with Kon Ichikawa (2 films) and Hideo Gosha (5 films). Anyway, he is one of the few legends left from the Golden Age of Japanese cinema. There may be one or two others, but not many. Believe it or not, Machiko Kyo (the woman from Rashomon) is still living in her 90's. The older Nakadai gets, the more and more he looks like a Japanese version of Michael Caine - must be the glasses and white hair.
Machiko kyo R.I.P. she just recently passed.. never met her, but still felt sense of loss..
Yeah, she was 95. Pretty long life. I don't think they had her page updated before I typed this.
Super fantastic!
日本の映画では、ブロッキングが感情的および心理的効果にどのように使用されるか。 キャラクター間の関係と力のダイナミクスを探求する方法として、ブロッキングの力をニュアンスします。 ボディ ランゲージの微妙な要素はすべて、シーン ショットや構図を構成する際に考慮する必要があります。俳優やフレーミングは、その配置を自在に操り、動きを探求する必要があるからです。
El respeto del entrevistador...
