Michele Placido
Director · Actor
80 years (May 19, 1946)Ascoli Satriano, Puglia, Italy
Across changing tastes and formats, Michele Placido has stayed an Italian actor whose accumulated screen time beats that of most leading names. It began in 1972, at the age of 26. Comedy has been the most frequent territory. The career has been split between cinema and television rather than settled in either. The film 'I Hate Summer' accounts for more of the public profile than anything else does. Another entry worth naming is 'Crime Novel'.
