After the clock strikes midnight wherever you are tonight, take a moment to raise a glass to the memory of Haruo Nakajima, who would have been 92 tomorrow.
From Wikipedia:
Haruo Nakajima (中島 春雄, Nakajima Haruo, January 1, 1929 – August 7, 2017) was a Japanese actor best known for playing Godzilla in twelve consecutive films, starting from the original Godzilla (1954) until Godzilla vs. Gigan (1972).
