This paper analyzes the unique film personae of HASEGAWA Kazuo and FURUKAWA Roppa just before and during the Pacific War in order to demonstrate how these actors’ performances were deeply influenced by the wartime conditions.
HASEGAWA was a handsome actor, and appeared in many jidaigeki melodramas, while FURUKAWA was a popular comedian and was especially known for his work in musical comedies. However, though their characters were totally opposite, their combination was very popular. They appeared together as a team in five movies from 1941 to 1944: Hasegawa-Rappa no Yemitsu to Hikoza (1941, MAKINO Masahiro); Otoko no Hanamichi (1941, MAKINO); Onna Keizu (1942, MAKINO); Zoku Onna Keizu (1942, MAKINO); and Shibai Do (1944, NARUSE Mikio).
By examining their pairing in the context of the war, I will show how the dynamics between HASEGAWA and FURUKAWA’s characters changed from a Pre-Oedipal homosexual relation to Oedipal homosocial relation under the greater and greater oppression of the militaristic nationalism of Japan.
