Sessue Hayakawa

Nationality: Japanese
Category: Actor
Subcategory: Japanese Actor

I shall ask to see whether they want me in dress clothes or in Japanese.

   

I have come East to find what the public likes.

   

My one ambition is to play a hero.

   

I like America anyway. In Japan we are much more formal. If two friends are separated for a long time and they meet they bow and bow and bow. They keep bowing without exchanging a word. Here they slap each other on the back and say: Hello, old man, how goes everything.

   

That is one reason so many of the Japanese pictures are not good, they cannot spare all the footage necessary for that bow, which is repeated over and over again.
