## Bio

Toshiro Mifune was born 1 April 1920 and spent three decades as the axis of Japanese film, racking up more than 180 credits but locking into immortality through his partnership with Akira Kurosawa. Rashomon in 1950 won him the Golden Lion at Venice; Seven Samurai in 1954 made him unavoidable. He took the Volpi Cup for Yojimbo in 1961, played Miyamoto Musashi across Inagaki's Samurai Trilogy, and in 1962 launched his own production company to chase large-scale spectacle like The Sands of Kurobe. After Red Beard in 1965 - another Venice win - he turned outward, making his Hollywood debut in Grand Prix and later appearing in Midway, Red Sun, and Spielberg's 1941, plus the NBC miniseries Shōgun as Lord Toranaga. He died of organ failure on 24 December 1997, two years before his induction into the Martial Arts History Museum Hall of Fame and nineteen years before his star went into the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
