Career
The son of the kabuki actor Sawamura Sōnosuke, Itō made his film debut at Toho in 1946.[1] Although mostly a character actor, playing memorable figures such as the novelist in Akira Kurosawa's Ikiru, he also played lead roles such as in Kon Ichikawa's Mr. Pu.[1]
Itō received the 1962 Blue Ribbon Award for Best Supporting Actor for his dual role in the seminal ninja film Shinobi no Mono.[2] In 2008, he was one of the actors commemorated in the Seven Supporting Characters film festival held at the now-defunct[3] Cinema Artone in Tokyo's Shimokitazawa entertainment district.[4]
