Earl Rhodes


Does anyone know what became of Earl Rhodes that played Dudley in the film? He seems to be another one of those actors that did a few films when he was young and fell off the planet. I did some searching around but I can't really find anything on him. It would be great if he had a mailing address or some other means of contact.

He is now 43 years old, living in Islweworth, West London, a freelance camera assistant with the BBC (he worked on "Flashmob: The Opera" last year). He is also apparently a devotee of Falun Gong, the spiritual movement that the Chinese government is trying to crush, and was deported from China back to the UK in 2002 for attempting to take part in a peaceful protest. You can see a photo of what he looks like now (or at least in 2002) here:

Thanks for the information! Mr. Rhodes still looks very sexy. I was reading up on the movement that he joined and it sounds very, very interesting. Though he did few films, he had increadible talent. He was a perfect fit for "high and mighty" characters. Mr. Rhodes is especially creepy in "The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With the Sea." Well, maybe one day someone will create a fan address for him. Until then,I will just sit back and drool watching him as Dudley in "Young Sherlock Holmes." (Laugh)

By the way, has anyone seen that documentary "My Date with Drew"? Well, I should create one called "My Date with Earl." (Laugh) I would love to get a date with that man...:)
