Iain Quarrier (born April 12, 1941 in Montreal) is a Canadian actor. He appeared in only five movies in the mid to late 1960s before retiring from the film business following the murder of his close friend Sharon Tate in 1969. ==Career== Quarrier began his career in two films directed by Roman Polanski; ''Cul-de-sac'' (1966) and ''Fearless Vampire Killers'' (1967). In 1968, along with Jean-Luc Godard, he acted in and produced the film ''One Plus One''. When the film was shown at the London Film Festival, Godard was so dissatisfied with Quarrier's production that appealed at the premiere for the audience to ask for their money back. A heated argument followed with Goddard punching Quarrier.〔Stephen Glynn: ''(Film Reviews – Sympathy for the Devil ).'' In: Scope. No. 7, February 2007. Requested on June 16, 2013.〕 Quarrier was a close friend of Roman Polanski and his wife Sharon Tate. On 8 August 1969, the night of the murder of Tate and four other people by the Manson Family, he had been invited by Tate to her house. However, he was delayed during filming of ''Vanishing Point'' in the California desert (Quarrier was a creative associate on the film). Arriving late in Los Angeles he decided not to bother the pregnant Tate at such a late hour and traveled onto the Vanishing Point wrap party instead.〔Mim Scala: ''Diary of a Teddy Boy. A Memoir of the Long Sixties.'' The Goblin Press, 2009. ISBN 978-0-9561497-0-1. S. 117–118.〕 His last film role was in 1968's ''Wonderwall''. After Tate's death, Quarrier retired from the film business. 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「Iain Quarrier」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
