Significant roles in titles such Mizoguchi’s Princess Yang Kwei-fei (1955) and Street of Shame (1956), Ozu’s Floating Weeds (1959), Kon Ichikawa’s Odd Obsession (1959) and as the wife of the disfigured protagonist of Hiroshi Teshigahara’s The Face of Another (1966) highlight Kyo’s presence and versatility.
No list of great Japanese actresses would be complete without Kinuyo Tanaka, who made some 250 credited appearances over a period of over 50 years, beginning with Hotei Nomura’s Woman of the Genroku Era (1924). Tanaka is equally important as the first Japanese woman to direct a significant body of work, making six films from Love Letter (1953) to Love under the Crucifix (1962), although she only appeared, if at all, in minor roles in her own films.
She appeared in the country’s most widely seen prizewinners: as the spectral enchantress in Mizoguchi’s Ugetsu Monogatari (1953) and in Teinosuke Kinugasa’s Palme d’Or winner Gate of Hell (1953). She also had the dubious honour of playing the young geisha Lotus Blossom alongside Marlon Brando, in risible ‘yellowface’, in The Teahouse of the August Moon (1956).
Mariya has a natural beauty that attracts everyone especially her fans. She can also change her expressions but still looks pretty. She's last seen in the drama series Everyone's Getting Married.

In 2002, she made an appearance in Dolls as Haruna. Fukada is also a J-pop singer and her debut single "The Last Fruit" led to her album Dear, both released in 1999.
Her live appearance in Tokyo in 1941, singing hit tunes from her movies such as Song of the White Orchid (1939) and China Nights (1940), triggered the country’s only riots of the wartime period, when thousands of spectators couldn’t get into the theatre.
