Toshiro Mifune passed away twenty five years ago this December. He was the first non-white superstar of global cinema, the first actor to play a yakuza (in the 1948 Kurosawa movie Drunken Angel) and the inspiration for Clint Eastwood’s “man with no name” and every other cool existential loner via his role in Yojimbo (1961; Akira Kurosawa).
