Kyōka Suzuki

Line up Kyōka Suzuki's awards and the spacing tells the story: a newcomer prize in 1994, the Blue Ribbon for Best Actress in 2000, the Japan Academy Prize for a leading actress in 2005, the Kinuyo Tanaka Award in 2015. Roughly once a decade, for a different kind of performance. Most actors find one register that works and then receive the same part forever. She kept changing what she was good at. From a university in Sendai to three decades near the center of Japanese screen acting, without ever being burned through.
