TCM blog article: Some things you may not know about Rod Taylor
Full name: Rodney Sturt Taylor
Height: 5'10"
Born in Sydney, Australia
Has one daughter, Felicia Taylor
Here is a quick look at some of his most well known films, as well as one of my favorites:
The Time Machine (1960) - the movie that launched his film career
101 Dalmatians (1961) - voice
The Birds (1963) - classic Hitchcock
Sunday in New York (1963) - a (very 60s) romantic comedy with Jane Fonda and the incredibly handsome Cliff Robertson
What an awkward way to meet!
Rod Taylor, Jane Fonda, Jo Morrow, & Cliff Roberson
36 Hours (1964) - with James Garner (this movie was fantastic!)
The Train Robbers (1973) - with John Wayne and Ann-Margaret
Inglourious Basterds (2009) - as Winston Churchill in his final film
Other films that look interesting:
Catch TCM's Tribute to Rod Taylor on Thursday, Jan. 29, starting at 8pm Eastern time. I strongly recommend Sunday in New York. I, myself will be watching The Time Machine and recording The Glass Bottom Boat on my dvr.
