Career


Born in Kyoto, Toyoda moved to Tokyo after finishing high school and studied scriptwriting under the pioneering film director Eizō Tanaka.[2][4] He joined the Kamata section of the Shōchiku film studios and worked as an assistant director under Yasujirō Shimazu, before giving his directorial debut in 1929.[2][4] After his move to the independent Tokyo Hassei Eiga Shisaku studio (later Toho), he directed the successful Young People (1937) and gained a reputation for directing literary adaptations with a humanistic touch,[4] in particular Uguisu (1938) and Spring on Leper's Island (1940). After World War II, he achieved fame for his adaptations of writers like Yasunari Kawabata, Kafū Nagai, Naoya Shiga, Jun'ichirō Tanizaki, Masuji Ibuse, and Ango Sakaguchi,[2][4] distinguished by their visual imagination and superb acting.[5] Noted works of this era include The Wild Geese (1953), Marital Relations (1955), A Cat, Shozo, and Two Women (1956) and Snow Country (1957).[1][2][4] Toyoda died in Tokyo in 1977.[2]
