The Dogs Of War holds up well. Saw it again recently. Underrated.

Keiko Kishi -- she was in The Makioka Sisters, Early Spring, and Kobayashi's The Inheritance but is maybe best known as the snow maiden in Kwaidan. (And I just learned from BlueSky she was the mother-in-law of the Dirty Three's Warren Ellis.)

And in another Kon Ichikawa film, the recently released by Radiance, Ten Dark Women/Ten Women In Black. It would be interesting to see some of those later Ichikawa films that she appeared in, 1991's Noh Mask Murders and 2001's Kah-chan some time as well.

And she also appears in that Sydney Pollack directed, Paul Schrader written, Robert Mitchum starring film The Yakuza.

Keith Caesar a.k.a. Keith Keith of Funky 4 + 1.

"That’s The Joint" is one of THE great singles of early hip-hop, but it also has the special distinction of being the very first hip-hop number ever performed on national television when Debbie Harry brought Funky 4 + 1 on to Saturday Night Live on Valentine's Day, February 14, 1981.

The Johnny Carson Show a little gimmicky but it's fun
