Black lizard (click here for a summary of film)

Here is one example where he became an exhibitionist. Director Kinji Fukazawa got the rights to make Mishima's play "Black Lizard" into a movie by agreeing to give him a small role where he poses as a muscular statue. The source of this aesthetic was his fondness for classic Greek art. The clip is below "Mishima & Miwa."
