An English, short-film called, "Personalities of Today. No. 5 - Shukaku Takagawa" was produced in 1977 by the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs to help introduce traditional aspects of Japanese culture to foreigners. It was available for many years for loan from Japanese embassies and consulates. It ran 25-minutes and included some rare footage of John Power, Richard Bozulich, James Kerwin, and, of course, Takagawa Shukaku.
I recently found a Russian dubbed version on YouTube and thought I'd share it. If you listen closely enough you can still hear the English commentary in the background. Although distinguishing it may be another feat.

Please tell me I wasn't the only person who saw this and did a search on this forum for the first 4? 
Very interesting, though, if only I could follow it better.
