In memory of one of Japan's greatest actors

One of my favourite,great Japanese actors, 
Yoshio Harada passed away at age 71.Too sad....

Assassination of Ryoma(1974)
He plays Ryoma Sakamoto,the most iconic and heroic figure as the leader of the revolution in the Bakumatsu period(mid 19th century). 

ツィゴイネルワイゼン(Zigeunerweisen)(1980)
Directed by great great great director,Seijun Suzuki.
Yoshio Harada plays the main role.This is like a world in a dream.....

陽炎座(Kagero-za)(1981)
Also directed by Seijun Suzuki.Actually Yusaku Matsuda
(another one of my fav actors)plays main role and Yoshio Harada is a supporting role,but this trailer is such fantastic,so....

RIP
