[MOPO] A Talented and Familiar Character Actor Passes Away

2005-11-25 Thread Flixspix




LOS ANGELES (Nov. 25) - Actor Pat Morita, whose portrayal 
of the wise and dry-witted Mr. Miyagi in "The Karate Kid" earned him an Oscar 
nomination, has died. He was 73.
Morita died Thursday at his home in Las Vegas of natural 
causes, said his wife of 12 years, Evelyn. She said in a statement that her 
husband, who first rose to fame with a role on "Happy Days," had "dedicated his 
entire life to acting and comedy."
In 1984, he appeared in the role that would define his 
career and spawn countless affectionate imitations. As Kesuke Miyagi, the mentor 
to Ralph Macchio's "Daniel-san," he taught karate while trying to catch flies 
with chopsticks and offering such advice as "wax on, wax off" to guide Daniel 
through chores to improve his skills.
Morita said in a 1986 interview with The Associated Press 
he was billed as Noriyuki "Pat" Morita in the film because producer Jerry 
Weintraub wanted him to sound more ethnic. He said he used the billing because 
it was "the only name my parents gave me."
He lost the 1984 best supporting actor award to Haing S. 
Ngor, who appeared in "The Killing Fields."
For years, Morita played small and sometimes demeaning 
roles in such films as "Thoroughly Modern Millie" and TV series such as "The Odd 
Couple" and "Green Acres." His first breakthrough came with "Happy Days," and he 
followed with his own brief series, "Mr. T and Tina."
"The Karate Kid," led to three sequels, the last of which, 
1994's "The Next Karate Kid," paired him with a young Hilary Swank.
Morita was prolific outside of the "Karate Kid" series as 
well, appearing in "Honeymoon in Vegas," "Spy Hard," "Even Cowgirls Get the 
Blues" and "The Center of the World." He also provided the voice for a character 
in the Disney movie "Mulan" in 1998.
Born in northern California on June 28, 1932, the son of 
migrant fruit pickers, Morita spent most of his early years in the hospital with 
spinal tuberculosis. He later recovered only to be sent to a Japanese-American 
internment camp in Arizona during World War II.
"One day I was an invalid," he recalled in a 1989 AP 
interview. "The next day I was public enemy No. 1 being escorted to an 
internment camp by an FBI agent wearing a piece."
After the war, Morita's family tried to repair their 
finances by operating a Sacramento restaurant. It was there that Morita first 
tried his comedy on patrons.
Because prospects for a Japanese-American standup comic 
seemed poor, Morita found steady work in computers at Aerojet General. But at 
age 30 he entered show business full time.
"Only in America could you get away with the kind of comedy 
I did," he commented. "If I tried it in Japan before the war, it would have been 
considered blasphemy, and I would have ended in leg irons. "
Morita is survived by his wife and three daughters
