Chieko Nakakita

Nakakita Chieko

  • Name: Nakakita Chieko
  • Native name: 中北千枝子
  • Also Known as: なかきた ちえこ, 田中千枝子, たなか ちえこ
  • Nationality: Japanese
  • Gender: Female
  • Born: May 21, 1926
  • Died: September 13, 2005
Nakakita Chieko (1926-2005) was a Japanese actress.

A character actress who never quite got her due, despite roles in numerous high-profile movies from the 1940s onward. Although a vigorous participant in Toho's labor disputes of that early period, like so many others she never really left, in part because she had married studio producer Tanaka Tomoyuki. An excellent performer with a lively and genuine presence, Nakakita was never fated for great stardom, although Kurosawa Akira early on spotted her potential as a realistic romantic lead, and cast her as the optimistic girlfriend in One Wonderful Sunday (1947).

On September 13, 2005, Nakakita died from an acute myocardial infarction.
