    Default Beat Takeshi

    Kitano Takeshi, film director, actor, usually plays main character in his own movies, uses some of the same cast frequently, also comedian and once a talk show host, and somewhat of a painter. Pretty cool overall. What's his type?



    Played the gym teacher in Battle Royale:


    According to some sources an accident he once had influenced his directorial style or career choice (both?);

    His movies have sometimes been described as "blend of shocking violence, deadpan humour, and languid, minimalist visuals"

    I did wonder whether his recurring cast might be a sign of Fi....?? I get the impression his movies start in beta, explosive but fun, then turn real serious and dynamic in gamma until they end in complete catastrophe what I'd imagined end of delta; So i guess anything but alpha.

    I haven't settled on a type for him yet. Here's a few quotes:

    "I intentionally shoot violence to make the audience feel real pain. I have never and I will never shoot violence as if it's some kind of action video game."

    "My film directorial career has been nothing but repetition of one failure after another!"

    "I think my way of showing violence is unique from that of other filmmakers, in that when I show it, it hurts. It happens unexpectedly and looks painful. That's how it is in real life, and that's how it should be expressed. I don't glamorize it, nor do I depict it without necessity or inevitability."

    "I always come to conclusions very fast. Well, that is one way of thinking, and the other way would be that I lack the necessary perseverance to stick to one thing that really fits me. I don't know if it's a good thing or bad thing."

    "I do all these various activities like painting and writing, comedy and films probably because not that I'm good at everything but because I'm not good at any of these things."

    Yes! Beta ST is a good idea. LSI-Se I think, or SLE-Ti as the other option. His immediate working process is that of a ego ("notoriously fast... busy" "move the camera [instead of shooting again and again]"), strong logics added on top:



    's gotta be valued, talking about the emotions of the future here, and fun:



    Challenge, tenacity, stamina, persistence > patience... all pointing toward . If I considered this video only I'd say SLE and not LSI, he's dipping into a fair lot and not .

    Ya @Chae I am going to stay with my original suggestion of LSI, could be Se subtype, I think he is certainly rational (at least all hints from movies point to that direction) so I doubt SLE. I used to really really enjoy his movies even if recently i've grown a bit tired of that style lol

    Lol yeah i decided to go with consensus haha. I would love to see a good case for gamma made for him though! In his discussion on his use of violence in his movies i'm not entirely sold to beta but makes the most sense so far.

    Violence can apply to all quadras, it's important to keep in mind how he defined it.
