Keisuke Kinoshita was a Japanese film director.
Although lesser known internationally than his fellow filmmakers such as Akira Kurosawa, Kenji Mizoguchi and YasujirŠOzu, Keisuke Kinoshita was nonetheless a household figure at home beloved by audience and critics alike, especially in the forties through the sixties. He was also prolific, turning out some 42 films in the first 23 years of his career. For this, Kinoshita explained, "can’t help it. Ideas for films have always just popped into my head like scraps of paper into a wastebasket."
