How did he do it?
he does move his face often enough to be able to understand what is going beneath the surface when he doesnt
and when does it is all the more impactful
Banging soundtracks
Yep. I feel like his later movies didn't do as well because Hisaishi no longer did the music.
Is this Takeshi Kitano?
no
beat takeshi
Okay, now I'm going to act depressed
none of what you say matters, what matters is to successfully convey emotions through the film
What emotion is being expressed here towards you?
Depression, loneliness, suicidal thoughts hidden behind veneer of humour

This guy looks like he eats onions milk while watching Rick and mort.
Somehow it works
It's up to actor's charisma i guess.
He has a good deadpan face

Ironically though, Kids Return is my favourite Kitano film and he's not even in it as an actor.
Kids Return is great
Oh, shit. I completely forgot about this guy. He's a rare talent. A Scene at the Sea is my favorite of his. It's a beautiful, understated film.

based
Too much soul for today's audience.
Good shit

Steven Seagal is much more talented than Takeshi, but somehow people hate him, even though he does everything the same way
Because Segal looks like a joke.
he is just asian
besides, all he does is just sitting in his movies, he also barely moves
wha happen?
By giving us the most KINO scene in history
It didn't even feel like this scene was real the first time, and I mean that as a compliment. It was just like "is this happening? This is fricking great, I'm so glad it went this way"
kino music
The lack of facial movement is because his face was partially paralyzed in a motorcycle accident.
That was actually only from Hana-bi and forward
Alright, I'm going to say it...
I actually enjoyed Kikujiro.
Name two numbers, quickly!
Anyone with a brain does
I'm sad that hes old now
He's made many kinos, time for other directors to step up.
he lost his powers when he changed his hairstyle. same thing happened to vince mcmahon
it's pretty impressive he went from this to actor/writer/director of actual kino.
>implying Vic Romano isn't a kino role
Right you are, Ken!
>tfw no dumbo-eared gf
I am Japanese. I live in Japan.
Do you like this acter? In Japan he is no person. No one likes him.
This is means you American are bad for put him into many movies.
bullshit queer
Talent + self awareness.
BAHAHAHAHAHA
they don't make comedies like they used to
>He didn't even bother and the next shot is him clearly still breathing
Kek
Japan's coast side looks comfy
How many movies as an actor did he commit suicide in?
all of them
not enough

Love his 90s and early 2000s kinos, but his more recent work is just awful.
I've seen everything up to Zatoichi and like all of it except Brother. I did watch Outrage but didn't get the hype around it at all. Felt like it was made by a Kitano fanboy who dumbed down all the emotion and spirituality of his 90s films
Pretty much. The Outrage trilogy just gets worse with each installment, but his worst movie by far is Ryuzo and the Seven Henchmen. Hard to believe Kitano actually made that crap.
Anyone watch Boiling Point? What was your interpretation of the ending?
For me, it's:
>sonatine
>brother
>kids return
>hana-bi
>violent cop
>boiling point
kikujiro
