RIP Tatsuya Nakadai - Drunk Monk - 11-11-2025

One of the truly great superstars of jidaigeki. I may have to revisit Ran or Harakiri in mourning.

Wasn’t he in Sword of Doom?

Indeed he was.

Wow! He had a long run. I thought sure he went out a long time ago.

He was 92. His final film, which I have not seen, was 2020 -  The Pass: Last Days of the Samurai.

Damn!

I was recently thinking of watching Ran again. I haven't seen it since I went to Los Gatos to see it when it was released. I was stunned by it.

Funny, that's what Stacy said. 

Unfortunately Ran isn't on Criterion, but they do have a collection dedicated to Nakadai. He did this long ass trilogy - the Human Condition - each film is 3 hours long - a WWII story. Never seen it. Criterion has that, of course. Might start chipping on it. We'll see.

Couldn't find anything on this but the trailer
