He subsequently worked on independent films and made numerous intensely rebellious and substantial socially conscious works. From the 1960s onward, he directed a succession of major films including the Toyoko Yamasaki adaptations “The Ivory Tower” and “The Perfect Family”, the “Men and War” trilogy, and “Kotei no inai Hachigatsu”. This body of epic works led to him being dubbed “the Red Cecil B. DeMille”.
Three of his films, Shiroi Kyotō, Fumō Chitai and Ah! Nomugi Toge won the Mainichi Film Award for Best Film.
He died of pancreatic cancer on August 11, 1983 at the age of 73.
In his posthumous autobiography, My Life as a Filmmaker, Yamamoto reflects on his career and legacy (University of Michigan Press, ISBN 978-0-472-07333-7).( Source: Wikipedia) Edit Biography
