Anne Heywood (born 11 December 1932) is a British film actress. ==Early life and career== Born as Violet Pretty in Handsworth, Birmingham, England, she won the Miss Great Britain title under her real name in 1950. At one time she was the personal assistant of Radio's Talent Spotter Carroll Levis, a show which toured the main theatres throughout Britain. Later she also attended the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. She began acting in films in the early 1950s, first in supporting roles but gradually evolving into a leading lady. One of her more prominent film roles was in a film adaptation of a D. H. Lawrence novel, ''The Fox'', co-starring Sandy Dennis, made in 1967, which caused controversy at the time due to its lesbian themes. In the 1970s, she appeared in several ''giallo''-type thrillers made in Italy. Her career declined in the 1980s. Her penultimate role was on the United States television series ''The Equalizer'', which starred actor Edward Woodward, in 1988 as Manon Brevard Marcel. The following year she appeared in a television movie, ''Memories of Manon'', based on this same character. Heywood was married to producer Raymond Stross, who produced most of her movies; including ''A Terrible Beauty'', ''The Brain'', ''The Very Edge'', ''Ninety Degrees in the Shade'', ''The Fox'', ''Midas Run'', ''I Want What I Want'', and ''Good Luck Miss Wyckoff''. After her husband died in 1988, Heywood retired and has never appeared onscreen since. In 1991 she remarried, to George Danzig Druke, a former Assistant Attorney General of New York State. The couple resides in Beverly Hills, California. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anne Heywood」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
