Biography

Best known for her role of Kissy in the 1967 James Bond film You Only Live Twice and Madame Piranha in King Kong Escapes (1967), Mie Hama was one of Toho's three biggest actresses during the Golden Age of Japanese cinema. Hama's career at Toho started late in 1959, and her first film for the company was released in 1960. Hama would end up doing more than 50 films at Toho during the span of ten years, before she slowly left her acting career behind. Hama was sometimes referred to as "Funny Face" due to her numerous appearances along side the Crazy Cats and comedian Hitoshi Ueki.
