Which Yakuza is played by Takashi Miike?


I want to know which of the Yakuzas was played by Takashi Miike, the director of Ichi the Killer. Was it the fat one with only one eye, or was it the 'boss' of the 3 stooges, or the other one? I also found that Sakichi Sato (from imdb), the guy who wrote the screenplay for Ichi the Killer, also played one of the Yakuzas. Can someone please tell me who played whom? Thanks!

Wow, I didn't know he was in this! I thought it looked like him but couldn't tell if it was... Figured it could be because of the shades... He's always wearing them!!

yea, i thought it was interesting that there was a poster of Ichi the Killer in the library--not exactly a very common place to see a poster for that sort of film...

Ha ha! Yeah, that's so true! I have a book about Takashi Miike that includes some pictures of him working as an assistant director in his earlier years, and he's still wearing sunglasses. I didn't even know Miike was in this movie, but I recognized him immediately when I saw him. I probably wouldn't have if it weren't for the shades. Nice touch.
