The 25 Year Old Rod Taylor, 3 November 2003
Author: Single-Black-Male from London, England

Having acted alongside Bette Davis and Joan Collins in 'The Virgin Queen' the previous year, the 25 year old Rod Taylor progressed from extra work to small acting roles in films like this one. Although he was born in Australia, you didn't notice his Australian accent.
