Career

Born in Hakodate, Hokkaido, Takamatsu acted in shinpa theater before joining Makino Film Productions in 1924.[1] He left the studio in 1926 and joined director Teinosuke Kinugasa in the independent production of the avant-garde film A Page of Madness, playing the crucial role of the bearded inmate. He later joined Ryunosuke Tsukigata's independent production company before moving to Shochiku.[1] During World War II, he left the film business and focused on theater, but he returned to film in 1946 in Kenji Mizoguchi's Utamaro and His Five Women.[1] He finished his career appearing in many Toei Company jidaigeki. He performed in over 200 films in his lifetime.

gollark: > strings prefixed by the length are bad because you cant take a subset of the string by just adding an offset to the pointer and have it be a valid stringWait, you can't really do that anyway with null-terminated ones if you want a subset of fixed length.
