2015 sees the 110th anniversary of the birth of Takashi Shimura. The wise tactician of Seven Samurai, the minor bureaucrat who burns with his final passion in Ikiru … Shimura starred in 21 out of 30 films by Akira Kurosawa and impressed movie fans throughout the world with his superb performances. However, his acting life was of course not confined to Kurosawa’s films.
Commemorating his career, this exhibition “Film Actor Takashi Shimura” is the first opportunity to show the collection formerly belonging to this unforgettable film star, which was donated to NFC in 2010. Together with screenings of fifteen of his films, you can rediscover one of Japanese film’s iconic figures.
