To those of us of a certain age, James Shigeta will always be remembered as the male lead in the 1961 film version of the musical Flower Drum Song. That's him in the center.



He had quite as long career, besides Flower Drum Song and Die Hard.

Signor V.


"For me, there's only my wife..."

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"

"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"

"It was a grass harp... And we listened."

"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
