Michael Lionel Standing (born London, 19 June 1939) is a British actor, appearing mostly in the 1960s and early 1970s. Between an appearance in a 1964 episode of the TV series of ''The Saint'' and his final appearance in the 1973 opening season of ''The Tomorrow People'' in which he played Ginge, the biker heavy who became the Tomorrow People's ally, Standing appeared in a considerable number of dramas such as ''Z-Cars'' and the soap opera ''The Newcomers'', and episodes of fantasy television series such as ''Adam Adamant Lives!'', ''The Champions'', and ''Ace of Wands''. Standing is probably best remembered for his role as Arthur in the 1969 film, ''The Italian Job'', who was, as Michael Caine's character Croker famously observed "only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!" after he had totally destroyed a van with gelignite. Standing later moved to the United States, and was briefly married to Sherri Spillane, the ex-wife of writer Mickey Spillane.〔''Los Angeles Times'': (Quickie Divorce Costs Spillane's Ex 'Hammer' Profits )〕〔''AP News'': (Writer's Ex Out To Take Him To the Cleaners, Her Hubby Says )〕 ==Selected filmography== * ''Stranger in the House'' (1967) * ''Poor Cow'' (1967) * ''Up the Junction'' (1968) * ''The Italian Job'' (1969) * ''Made'' (1972) * ''Aftershock'' (1990) 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「Michael Standing (actor)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
